INDIA DEPLORES - * 0N OUTRAGES| Toviet lntrigfiers, Authors of | Explosions, Accused of Hit- ting Cause of Nationalism. e — | By Radio to The Star. LONDON, April 16.—Although the | hand of anarchistic assassins again has | appearéd as a shadow beclouding In- dia's political panorama, there does not seem to be any room to believe that Soviet intrigues have at last struck oil. ‘Through an entire cross section of the Indian press, rerresenung all shades of Hindu political opinion, there is not a single instance of approval of the bomb outrage in the national assembly chamber. Even the most radical lead- ers agree that the explosive was the en- deavor of the extreme Left wingers only injured the cause of Indian nationalism ‘which believes in hortatory rather than in nihilistic methods. Everywhere, both in India and here, there is a well marked tendency to deplore the terroristic measures of the extreme sections of Hindu political life. For instance, the Calcutta Amrita Bazaar Patrika says the bomb throw- ers have done a great disservice to the nationalist cause. ! These bomb throwers, according to the organ of radical opinion, supply a far more plausible argument for the guuse of a public safety bill which ad just finished its third reading when the tragedy occurred, than any ad- ‘vanced m government branches dur- ing the bill debate. The more timid oppositionist paper concludes it is bound to find it difficult in face of the | bomb argument to adhere to the posi- | tion taken up on constitutional grounds. “Progressive Calcutta” of Bengal, | which is supported by educated In- | dians, belleves a result of the outrage will be to alienate the leaders who have been paying a sort of intellectual hom- age to the creed of the Communists as s ible solution of India’s economic and that this latest crime comes as a revelation to the opposition lead- ers, who have been thoughtlessly play- | ing with fire. “The outrage should warn them not ! to embark on perilous paths of civil dis- | obedience,” the paper concludes. ‘De- | spite the apprehension of the alleged bomb throwers and the concentrated efforts of the police to scotch seditious | efforts in anarchist circles, however, 2dditional letters threatening the lives ; of Indian legislative members have been sent out signed by ‘Dharumrajun’ (honorary chief), Hindustan Socialist Republican Army.” Naturally the imperialistic Daily Mail, which is unalterably opposed to Soviet Russia, takes the lead here in blaming the bomb outrage on the Communist Internationale, saying: “The outrage is one more sign added to a long series that show how dangerous it is to weaken in any way the ‘steel frame- work’ of effective government in India. The Red leaflet thrown with the bombs clearly shows where the master criminals are to be found. They make no secret of their vile intentions.” On the other hand, even the So- cialistic Dally Herald decries the at- tempt, stating: “The hideaus, sense- less acts of the terrorists work more harm to the cause they are intended to support than the people they are intended to attack. The lesson of history is surely plain enough. Ter- rorism, outrages and assassination are «3_loathsome ulcers.” Liberal attitude is summed up by the Manchester Guardian as follows: “The atrocity is likely to make a deep impression on the minds of the ortho- dox Nationalist leaders in India. No responsible Indian Nationalist can for the moment doubt but that the deed has given a set-back to the cause of Indian Swaraj. However, bomb throw- | ing is scarcely relevant at all, either to the question of India’s fitness for self-government or to the genuineness of her desire for it.” Without directly blaming Moscow for the outrages, the Times editorializes: “To distant organizers the revolution affair is a mere incident in the Asiatic campaign that has been waged with varying fortunes for 10 years against the West in general and this country in particular from the Levant to Can- ton. The Indian politicians should serve a startling eommentary on the danger of evil communications.” though pointing out that “terrorist organizations in India stand apart from that m majority of politically minded In: ‘who constitute ‘non- violent’ Nationalist movement,” the con- servative Daily Telegraph, which fre- quently sums up middle-class reactions of this country, concludes that the Na- tionalists “played long enough with fire.” The Liberal Daily News, which represents the important wing of this “It is highly improbable any responsible opinion will make the mistake of judging the capacity of In- dia by these unbalanced fanatics.” In- deed, 1t is seldom the British press dis- unanimity of opinion in We believe people are honest and lpprecfl!e fair dealing.
