INDIAN VICEROY
MISSION TO BRITAIN ENDED. GOOD WORK ACCOMPLISHED. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (OlliCiai Wireless.) RUGBY, October 10. Lord Irwin, Viceroy of India, who has just concluded three months' leave in England, left London this morning, accompanied by Lady Irwin, for Marseilles, en route to India. Lord Irwin has spent a considerable portion of his leave in London, and has been in frequent consultation with the Sec - retary of State for India, Mr Wedgwood Benn, and other members of the Government. In the early part of Lord Irwin's stay in London, he lent his counsel to the Indian Central Committee. The Times says that with good effect he urged both sides to show mutual regard and forbearance. It adds that although there is no intention of interfering with Hie work of the Simon Commission by any prejudgment of the great issues on which it is to pronounce in its report, which is expected in February, this will not preclude Lord Irwin from throwing light on reform problems in speeches he may make after he resumes charge in India.
