MAHARAJAH’S WARNING
TO INDIAN NATIONALS
[United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.]
(Received this day at 1.30. p.m.) DELHI, February 4. Addressing his durbar, Maharajah Patiala uttered the frankest warning yet given to Nationalist politicians of India.—“We refuse to follow will-of-the-wisp independence, because we are convinced the outcome would be disastrous in the extreme to the ideal of a greater India, which we cherish,” . The Maharajah declared he could not watch indifferently the growth in British India of revolutionary activities which might engulf them. Furthermore, the position of Indian princes, as guardians of law and order in their States would compel them to oppose, with all their resources, any movement preparing to undermine the authority and foundations of social order.
