Mission
to
India
The
mission
of
three
"United
Kingdom
cabinet
ministers
Lord
Pethick-Lawrence,
the
Secretary
of
State
for
'India,
Sir
Stafford
Cripps
and
Mr.
Alexander
is
unmistakable
evidence
of
the
good
wishes
of
all
parts
of
Britain
for
their
success.
The
purpose
of
the
mission,
is
to
assist
the
Viceroy
in
his
consultations:
with
the
Indian
leaders
on
establishing
the
machinery
for
decid-inging
India's
future
form
of
government.
In
thus
assisting
in
the
final
phase
of
India's
progress
towards
self-government,
the
mission
will,-
as
Prime
Minister
Attlee
points
out,
be
given
as
free
a
hand
as
possible.
Although
there
will
undoubtedly
be
matters
requiring
reference
back
to
the
Cabinet
in
London,
the
reason
for
sending
three
members
of
the
United
Kingdom
Cabinet
was
to
secure
the
presence
of
responsible
persons
able
to
take
a
decision
on
the
spot.
The
British
government
has
done
great
work
in
India.
"We
have
united
India,"
said
Mr.
Attlee,
"and
given
her
that
sense
of
nationality
she
has
lacked
over
previous
centuries.
She
has
learned
from
us
the
principles
of
democracy
and
justice.
When
Indians
attack
our
own
rule,
they
base
their
attack,
not
on
Indian
principles,
but
on
the
basis
of
standards
derived
from
Britain."
India
has
had
a
splendid
war
record.
Having
twice
in
the
past
twenty-five
years
played
her
part
in
the
defeat
of
tyranny
"is
it
any
wonder,"
asked
Mr.
Attlee,
"that
India
claims,
freedom
to
decide
her
destiny?"
Her
future
constitution
and
her
place
in
the
world
are
for
India
to
decide,
and
in
this,
said
the
Prime
Minister,
"we
seek
the
utmost
co-operation
of
all
the
Indian
lead
UNEMPLOYMENT
INSURANCE
COMMISSION
ers."
While
expressing
his
hope
that
the
Indian
people
would
remain
in
the
British
Commonwealth
"a
free
association
of
free
peoples"
and
pointing
out
that
no
great
nation
can
today
stand
apart
from
what
is
happening
in
the
world
at
large,
Mr.
Attlee"
also
declared
that
if
India
elects
for
independence
she
has
the
right
to
do
so,
and
it
would
be
for
Britain
to
make
the
transition
as
smooth
and
easy
as
possible.
Whatever
the
terms
of
the
eventual
treaty
with
India,
Mr.
Attlee
made
it
clear
that
Britain
will
seek
no
advantage
that
would
entail
disadvantage
for
India.
The
Highway
Run-around
Evidently
the
Canadian
National
Railways
is
the
fly
in
the
ointment
as
far
as
the
question
of
settling
final
ownership
of
the
-Prince
Rupert
Highway
between
Dominion
and
province
is
concerned,
T,he
federal'
government
has
offered
the
road
to
the
province
which
is
willing
to
accept
but
not
until
the
question
is
settled
of
the
standing
of
several
miles
of
the
road
which
runs
on
railway
right-of-way
alongside
the
track.
Therefore,
it
is
more
or
less
of
a
technicality
which
holds
the
whole
matter
up,
a
technicality
which
might
prove
a
troublesome
one
if
an
obstinate
attitude
should
be
persisted
in
by
each
or
any
of
the
parties,
concerned.
But,
if
a
conciliatory
attitude
is
adopted,
there
should
be
little
difficulty
in
getting
the
matter
settled
once
and
for
all.
Meanwhile
we
who
would
like
to
see
the
whole
question
straightened
out
and
the
road
employed
to
the
fullest
extent
possible
in
peacetime
function
feel
we
are
still
being
given
the
run-around
and
are
getting
tired
of
it.
The
fact
of
the
matter
is
that
we
are
just
about
where
we
started
as
far
as
the
settling
of
the
ownership
of
the
road
is
concerned.
At
least
one
satisfactory
thing,
is
the
assurance
of
the
province
that,
meantime,
it
will
assume
the
responsibility
of
maintenance
as
far
as
the
equipment
at
its
disposal
will
permit.
If
it
had
wanted
to
be
really
arbitary
it
need
not
even
have
gone
this
far.
