Samples of Moderation.



THE Anglo-Indian Press so often set up as mentors of the Indian both as regards the virtue of moderation and the heinousness of using strong language that the following samples of moderation which we cull from one single article in one of the most widely read of these papers, the Englishman of Calcutta, may prove of interest:-"Weakness of this kind (the concession of time limit made in the case of the Emergency Powers Bill) brings the Government into deserved contempt.” Again:-“We detest this shilly-shallying. It is time the Government of India had the courage of its convictions. Until it does show some vestiges of backbone it cannot except to inspire confidence in its friends or respect in its opponents.”
