IN INDIA
POLITICAL TURMOIL. (Pt? Press Association —Copyright). DELHI, Feb. 2. Undoubtedly Viscount Peel’s despatch to the Viceroy on tlje subject of revision of the reform scheme is causing vehement protest among Indians everywhere. In the Legislature’s minutes, motions and memoranda are circulated profusely, condemning the despatch in no uncertain terms. One. signed by prominent members of the legislatives, says that the despatch is likely to spoil all attempts to quieten the political situation, and to alienate the Moderates. The memorandum ends: “We desire to tell the Right Honourable Secretary of State with all respect, that if he imagines India is going to wait until 1929 for re-examination, and revision of the Constitution, then his Lordship is sadly mistaken.” The Mahsuds are in chastened mood, owing to the continued bombing and occupation of the disturbed area byEnglish forces.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
