The Marquis of Harrington, Secretary of
State for India, receiving u deputation from
Manchester urging the total repeal of the
Indian import duties, said that the recent
statements in regard to the intention of the
Indian government were unauthorized and
inaccurate. The present system, he said,
rested on no fixed principle, and could not
remain permanent part of the fiscal sys-
tenn. Replying to a deputation of Oldham
manufacturers, the Marquis said that the
instructions had already been given as TO
increased cultivation of cotton in India.
Seed had been sent and improved processes
had been made as widely available
as. possible. The government, he
said, was impressed with the i'm
portance ~ opening up the resources of
India in cautious and prudent manner.
The Marquis regretted that the Cotton
Supply Association had been allowed to
expire, and said that If anything could be
done to promote the growth of cotton in
India 1t would be by bringing the cultiya-
tor in more direct contact with the English
consumer.
