SEATTLE, WASH., FRIDAY, \——_— : Succi Pi Self-Gover:.ing Colony Under J. Bull Proposed | by English Statesmen BY GOBIND BEHARI LAL (East Indian Authority.) SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.—The peace conference hav-| ing decided that the Germans are not fit to carry the White Man’s Burden in Africa, and the former Germany colonies } there having been placed under the mandate of the British, » the proposal is now being made in England by such authori- ties on imperial problems as Sir Theodore Morison, that they | be turned into a pure and simple Hindu colony. » “Call upon the Hindus,” says Sir Theodore, “to share the} )) White Man’s Burden in the undeveloped parts of Asia and Africa.” It is beginning to be recognized that the people ‘of India are among “white men,” tho a little sunburned. This Tecognition is a result of India’s vast contribution in men and! oney to the cause of the allies during the war. | There are people, both in America and in England, who} ink that Germany should not be deprived of her tropical! lonies. The future of world-peace, they say, depends upon F appeasing the Germans, now that their imperial teeth have} | been drawn. | With this view, those of the British who had experience in colonial adminis’ ion, do not agree. They point out that fine harbors and could be turned bases to menace British ship- he allied statesmen evidently took en ee | | | | ' into formidable submari » ping in the Indian ocean. _ this view of the matter. ' Now Australia and Canada are thinly populated and can- not spare men. England herself, bled white by the war, has a deficiency of men to go out into the colonies. But “India’s resources of manhood are inexhaustible.” And the tropical colonies under the British Crown, it must be remembered, "\ have been developed almost altogether with the help of Hindu * laborers. The impulse of colonizing is very strong in the Hindu, whose ancestors, the Indo-Aryans, were among the world’s! foremost colonizers and pioneers. Practically barred from the Anglo-Saxon colonies, they desire to go abroad. ’ BUT THEY DO NOT WANT TO GO AS COOLIES. | Madame Barnard is a typical Bel-|in describing the Belgian women And that fact poses the British problem in this connec- |! beanty of the wealthy clanses.| And it waa this same “spirit” that She is somewhat akin to her French | carried them so gloriously thru the a 2 . . .
