Meanwhile at Calcutta (eastern India) the predominantly Hindu so-called Indian National Congress, met under the chairmanship of Pandit Motilal Nehru, and under the aegis of sainted Mahatma Gandhi. These two gatherings-neither of them Parliamentary or authoritative-speak for Mother India, insofar as she is articulate. The pity is that too often her Moslems and Hindus speak at absolute cross purposes. Last week, however, each assemblage...
