HOPES OF AGREEMENT
GREAT BRITAIN & INDIA EFFECT OF RECENT WAR DEVELOPMENTS. ! INCREASING DESIRE SHOWN FOR SETTLEMENT. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY. June 8. It has been a matter for comment for some weeks past in the newspapers here that reports of military development to the disadvantage of the Allies reaching India had exerted an important influence on the current of opinion there. The “News Chronicle refers to this matter in an editorial today in which it links the movement of thought in India with their corresponding reactions in Britain. It writes: "Recent Nazi successes have brought a new note of realism into the attitude of both Britain and India toward the Indian problem. There are signs that both countries are increasingly anxious for a settlement. and the latest message from India is distinctly hopeful in tone. We have always believed that, given goodwill and common sense on both sides, a solution to the Indian question was just round the corner. If the recent crisis brings the parties to the turning point, it will be at least one thing we can thank Hitler for.”
