Mr Michael Blundell, political leader of Kenya's 35,000 Europeans, today announced that he and his fellow. European members of the Colony's Legislative Council had asked the Colonial Secretary, Mr Oliver Lyttel- ton, to raise the question of the Indian Government's attitude towards East Africa at the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference in London next month.

Addressing more than 1,000 Europeans at a public meeting, Mr Blundell accused the Indian Prime Minister, Mr Nehru, and his Govern- ment of interference" in Kenya's affairs and declared that the European members of the Legislative Council were "disturbed" by India's attitude towards the whole of the territories of Eastern Africa.

The sombre hall where the Colony's Legislative Council normally meets, echoed to the sound of cheering and clapping when Mr Blundell directly accused the Indian Government of attempting to weaken British rule in the Colony by pro- -paganda broadcasts and statements that the Europeans were mercilessly oppres-
