The Dominions. should take particular pains to assure the Imperial Government and the Government of India that nothing would please them more than to meet the representatives of Tadia at the next conference., If the reason for Lord Hardinge's statement that the decision should lie largely with the Dominions is that the attitude of me of the local sections of the Dominions regarding Indian immigration created the im pression at Simla that the Dominions would hesitate to take such steps, then the Dominion Governments should lose no time in making perfectly clear that, far from hesitating, they eagerly support the admittance of gorgeous India into the Council's of the Empire.
