any nation
This huge country with a farming
population almost twice the total

widespread illteraCy and antequated
Oriental customs.
The minister Of agriculture for In

spondent of the Associated Press
something of the situation and spoke
in the highest terms of the progress
that has been made in the United
States. In this connection he said:
Il understand a good many Ameri-
cans are Interested in the development
of India We are only too grateful for
any assistance or suggestions. be-
lieve that some of your educational
problems, especially in the south, have
been similar to those which confront
us

one-fifth of the whole world and at
