INDIANS IN LONDON
THE SELF-GOVERNMENT IDEAL. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. London, January 2. A New Year's reception to Indians of all races and creeds was held at the residence of Bepin Chandra Pal in London. Sir Henry Cotton, formerly chief Commissioner of Assam, was the principal guest. Sir Henry Cotton urged Indians not to express themselves too strongly, lest they should fall into the same trouble as Savarkar, who had been sentenced to deportation for life. He hoped the Hague arbitration tribunal would restore Savarkar to France, to whose soil he escaped from the steamer carrying him to India. He eulogised the ideal of India again becoming selfgoverning, but Indians shouhUcultivate friendly relations with Englishmen in India. The ideal was not attainable in a day, but progress was being made, notwithstanding terribly repressive legislation.
