Abstract
WHATEVER may be the outcome in the immediate future of the political situation in India, and however it may be affected by the Round Table Conference now sitting in London, it must be remembered that pledges have been given which would result in the exercise of the effective power of government passing in an increasing degree into the hands of the Indian people. This is not the place, even if it were not too late, to enter into argument as to the wisdom of the course that has been adopted in handling Indian affairs; it is the outcome of a policy which was initiated long ago. Enlightened according to the ideas of its day, that policy, nevertheless, failed to appreciate the essential quality of the problem and the conditions which governed its solution.
