SOLUTION PROVING DIFFICULT
GOVERNMENT NOT TAKING SIDES
(Brltlsli Official Wireless.) (Received 9th December, 11.30 a.m.) RUGBY, Bth December. There were both yesterday and on Saturday informal and perfectly friendly discussions between the Hindu and Moslem c delegates to the Round Table Conference with the object of reaching adjustments on the minority question. Meanwhile, reports that the Government has taken sides in the so-called deadlock on this difficult issue are authoritatively described as absolutely untrue. The Government has not yet approached the subject itself at all, and while naturally it is taking a keen interest in it it continues to regard the solution as primarily a matter for the Indian communities. The problem is one that has engaged attention for years, and the fact that the conversations in London which have taken place between the Indian delegates during the last few weeks have not as yet provided a solution is no justification for excessive pessimism. The discussions between the Indian delegates were entirely free from friction, but have been marked by a mutual desire to reach accommodation on this longstanding and unquestionably intricate problem.
