Mayor Orme stated that this Idea had been considered some time ago but it had been felt it would I prove too costly.

DEVELOPMENTS Sir Samuel Hoare Skeptical About ; 1'ractic'ability of Plan Presented By Native Delegates Fears It Would Be Unworkable LONDON, Jan. 6: The cold waters of doubt were thrown upon responsible government for India by Sir Samuel Hoare, spokesman for the British Conservative delegates, in the Indian round-table conference today. Sir Samuel did not reject the scheme submitted by Sir Tej Basadur Sapru and accepted yesterday by Lord Reading on behalf of the British Liberals. His attitude was definitely non- committal but he subjected the scheme to an analysis and questioned whether it would work out at all. "It would be so complicated," Sir Samuel said, "referring to the Sapru conception of responsible government," It would be so vulnerable to attacks of critics and would be so full of anomalies that it would be workable only on the basis of wide acceptance of good will In India itself: Sir Samuel asked: And was there any Indication that at the present stage such goodwill existed in In- dla?
