Second Charge Is Laid After Theft Acquittal a tw minutes after he had Ready For Autonomy Benefits of British rule and principles of Christianity should aid new self-government. "Great . Britain, unntouched and uncredited, has left in the minds of 450,000,000 people the principles of democracy and equal justfee which, based on the acceptance of Christianity in secular affairs, should lead a great self-governing and de mocratic nation into the paths of unity and progress," declared Prof. Basil Mathews of Van couver in an address on India before a largely attended dinner meeting of the Womens Cana dian Club last night. Prof. Mathews, In a discourse which lasted for about an hour, dls cussed some of the great inter nal problems, of India, partlcu larly those of political and re ligion, and expressed hope that the present negotiations lead lng to the establishment of self government in India would be crowned with success. "Even to day things appear to be going better at Simla than we naa expected and it looks pdssible that the deadlock (between Hindus and Mdslems) may at last be broken. India's problem of self-government Is the greatest of all colonial and race problems and It appears to be well on the way to being solved." It was encouraging to see how leaders who, even as late as 1942 at the time of the Cripps offer, refused to meet were being brought together today. Prof. Mathews referred to the ancient Hindu beliefs in child marriage and the transmigration of souls which would have to be removed. Worship of the productivity of births and the acts which went with it re sulted In gross immorality and an., excess - o f . populaHQn-If iUM) , idea of the transmigration or souls from humans to animals could be dropped and. animals killed six times the number of people could be fed. Elements of 'Hope' Christianity, the speaker said, was growing in India more than any other religion. This was one imnortant gleam of hope. An other was the belief of Nehru, the Moslem leader, in the mod ernizlng of the industry and norim hire of the country. Here arose in India the question ot capitalism or national socialism which was so well known in other countries. In spite of the ancient and deep-rooted customs and he liefs, Prof. Mathews felt there was a great desire and passion among the people of India for change which would bring about a new national unity fo rthat nation in a free world as op posed to the 'reactionary ideas of Mahatma Gandm, Great Britain, Prof.. Mathews said, had already established in India gr e a t communication transuortation, civil administra tion and medical services in the conduct of which the Indians themselves were already playing a great part.- Under democratic self-government these would De of inestimable value in carrying the country on in the paths of cultural and economic pro gress. Prof. Mathews' address was couched in a vein of dry wit and one of the features, was a droll description of a typical Indian moving picture. Incidentally, he disclosed that India was sixth among the nations in the production of moving pictures.

MANY PROBLEMS IN EAST ASIA Fall of Singapore Was Turning Point Canada in Korea United States in Philippines The European nations which dominated the countries ot Southeastern Asia cannot go back to those countries after the defeat of Japan on the same terms on which they dominated them prior to 1941. The fan nf Singapore, was as 'ah 'Important event In "the his tory of Asia as was the American revolution to Britain and America. It was a break with the forms of the past which could not be renewed. These assertions were made by Prof. Basil Mathews in a speech before the Prince Rupert Rotary Club Thursday afternoon in which he examined the prospects of Burma, Thailand, Malaya and the Philippines. Burma, with 10,030,000 Bur mese and 4,000,000 hill tribes men, had a minority problem which Britain has been wise enough to consider when creat ins the framework of free gov ernment for Burma. While the Burmese were Buddhist, the tribes were either spirit worshippers or Christian and In the past they had been fiercely persecuted by the Burmans. Burma also had a numerous Indian population which controls the commerce and Industry of the nation. Before the war these Indian moneylenders had an economic stranglehold on the Burmese peasants who had come' into their detot. In giving the Burmese a free government, Britain was not deserting the country but was ar- ramrina to guide it to a condition of stability and enlightenment; in which minority groups were safe. "In regard to Burma Britain was loliowing tne progressive trend of the times," Dr. Mathews said.
