FUTURE OF INDIA
POSSIBLE END TO UNREST TROUBLE SINCE PARTITION Daily Times Special Service AUCKLAND, Dec. 5. Unrest in the Punjab was definitely worse since the partition of India than it was previously, but there were possibilities that the parties would eventually get together, said Dr L. D. B. Frost, formerly a major in the Indian Army, who arrived at Auckland by flying .boat from Sydney. Dr Frost, who had been in the Indian Army for 10 years, has accepted a three-year appointment m Samoa with the New Zealand Health Department. , „ "The trouble in the Punjab was well organised, - ’ said Dr Frost. “ I would not say that India could be described as being no place for Europeans because I feel that, as soon as the present troubles settle down, Europeans will be welcome in India, particularly in their civil and advisory capacities. If the country is well led in the next year or two and the people can forget their communal hatreds, there is a distinct possibility of the two Dominions living happily together.” Dr Frost will stay in New Zealand for about 11 days. He will later be joined in Samoa by his wife and two children.
