The Indo-British Association’s Appeal.

ACCORDING to a Reuter telegram “the newly formed Indo-British Association has circularised commercial firms interested in India appealing for funds to enable it to undertake a comprehensive scheme of parliamentary and public propaganda against irresponsible agitation for home rule in India.” We hope this will open the eyes of the All-India Congress Committee and the Council of the Muslim-League to the true nature of the situation. One of the most important objects of the proposed deputation to England was to counterpart the campaign of misrepresentation, mendacity and calumny which European and Anglo-Indian extremists were sure to start in England the moment it became clear that the people of India were in earnest. This campaign has been in full swing now for some time.
