Also simultaneously in the British Parlitment it will be made clear the Government adheres to the 1927 declaration and will lay down set terms for a Dominion status for India which is the goal to be aimed at when the conditions are practicable. It is expected that Captain Wedgewood Benn will go to India in the winter and round-table conference at which all shades df Indian opinion will be represented. l!t is understood Lord Irwin’s statement while not anticipating or prejudicing the Simon Commission report, will give a general indication of the lines of advance contemplated.
