Various Indian speakers attack- ed Gen. Birdwood's policy, which they described as an "outrage to India" and declared the "British had outstayed their welcome; they would be wiped out within a de- cade."

The Army Secretary, defending Gen. Birdwood's policy, declared the Army was not maintained for Imperial purposes outside India and no great reductions in cost were possible. British troops were insurance often a. remarkable against riots.
