INDIA POLITICAL MURDERS.
BRITAIN'S DUTY EXPOUNDED.
London, Nov. 25. ·
During the debate in the Houso of Lords last night, Lord Lothian, the Under Secretary for India. agreed that the growth of political murders, notably in Bengal, was extremely grave. The British Government in India' would sup- port all measures taken to sup- press terrorism, and all the more- because they appreciated the fair spirit of the delegates to the Round Table Conference, and were anxious to see self-govern- ment extended in India.
It was the Government's duty to protect the lives of its own ser- vants and others, and it was not the less its duty to prevent a body of men deflecting the course of political progress by bringing not reason and argument, but terrorism and assassination to bear. Drastic action must be taken to end this mentec.

the The taal conclusions of Government on the vitally im- portant questions which have been before the Indian Round Table Conference will be an- nounced by the Prime Minister. probably on Tuesday, when it is anticipated the final plenary sex- sion of the conference will end.

The Moslems, It is stated, will give no support to The introduction of responsibility at the Centre, or of any further responsibility in the provinces, while the question of protection of minorities remains open. A statement defining the Hindu Liberals' opposition to accepting
