INDIAN FEDERATION
ADVOCATED BY VISCOUNT SAMUEL NEED OF BANDINu TOGETHER FOR DEFENCE. ESSENTIALS OF EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, June 3. Presiding at a ceremonial dinner in London, Mr Isvaran, the Trade Commissioner for Mysore, said that Mysore was prosperous and happy under its administration. Viscount Samuel, who was the principal guest, emphasised the need for an All-India Federation. He said that the nations that hated aggression and war were obliged to look to their own defences and to band themselves together or they would fall separately as helpless victims. Those were matters which closely touched the peace and security of India, and they could not be ignored by her statesmen and legislators and her vast electorates. The new Constitution of India was, on the whole working well in the provinces. It was clearly essential that the States and also tne peoples should be more closely associated with the Government, and in this respect Mysore and Baroda had set the best example. An All-India Federation, he concluded, was essential to ensure efficient government broadly based upon the whole of the people- and to establish the proper status of India in the world.
