AN ENGLISH BUSINESS
'MAN'S VIEW.
The following letter from an Eng- lish business man in India recently published in the Man- chester Guardian,
In your letter under reply you have asked me to give you my view оп the Indian political" pesi-
tion. This is not a very easy matter, but I shall endeavour to help you a little if I can. To be gin with, what will happen here during the next few months will largely depend on the contents of the Simon Commission's rapërt. Judging by the events of the last few weeks, and here I am going on the atttitude of the Home Govern ment and that important pronoun. cement made by our Viceroy after. his visit to England, I think that We can take it that the Commis sion will recommend Dominion status in time. All we Euro peans out here have realised for some time that this had to happen, nud I firmly believe that the sooner it is practicable the better for every-. one concerned.

As it appears to me, the posi tion has been considerably clarified by the events of the last few weeks. I attach great importance to the pronouncement of the Viceroy, which came at a most opportune time, as all of us were somewhat anxious about what would happen at the Congress meeting which com menced at Lahore at the beginning of this month. The Viceroy's speech which was hailed with delight by ali Indians of substance, has been the result of considerable additions to the Moderate party, and has caused a cleavage in the ranks of the Congress party. The longer the latter conferred in Lahore thement is going to be no easy matter, greater the split became. They, as you know, are the extremists, but many of us have come to the con clusion that whilst they have voted in favour of independenes this is enly a political party move. They believe that only by asking for the whole loaf will half. (Dominion status) be given and then they will be able to go to the country and declare that all the credit for the Attainment of the country's aims is theirs.

It will not be until this conference meets that the Indian. will realise the tremendout task which the British have shouldered for so many years, and then they must start to give us credit for what we have done for them. It would then he freely acknowledged by all Indian parties that after all they still need and want the, co-opera- tion of the British. Petty jeal ousies naturally will continue, as they always do, but I am hopeful the result of the conference should menn a return to more peaceful times and prosperity.
