Dickson -Poynder, was talented ad- ministrator before being raised to the peerage in 1910,. He is perhaps the best authority in public life today on the subject in India. He was presi- dent of the Royal Commission on the Public Service in India, is a form CT governor of New Zealand, and as recently as a year ago was under sec- retary of state for the colonies, in which capacity his knowledge of Inc dia again proved a great asset to the British Empire.
 One Of the interesting subjects dis- cussed by Lord Is1ington concerned American missionaries in India, some of whom have reported favorably and others adversely regarding British rule there. He paid pleasing tribute 10 the accomplishments of these Amerl- cans and said he was glad to note that their number was increasing. Lord Islington emphasized the ef- fectiveness of the complete system of education now provided in India This instruction is free but not ccmpul- sory and extends through all the TiI- lages and towns and cities, for children of all ages. including those in uni- versailles.
 Both the extent and the character of so-called sedition in India had been ex- aggerated by those who had no oppor- tunity of knowing conditions intimate- ly, Lord Ellington declared.
