INDIAN CRISIS MOST
!. SEVERE IN HISTORY
Reading Goes to New Post
While Menace Is at Its
Height.

(By Cable to The Star and New York World
LONDON, January 2s.-The Earl of
Reading takes up the Inlian vice roy
atty in far more critical time for
British rule than even the Indian
mutiny. The native population then
education, experience in politics or
funds. Today that is all changed,
and the new viceroy is confronted by
a powerful, we'll organized movement
directed by able, highly educated
leaders. who have learned the politiea!
game in the west and are animated
by definite democratic aims.
If Lord Reading had to deal only
with the Indian progressives his task,
though still supremely difficult, might
not be hopeless. But in governing
India, he starts with a bureaucracy
thoroughly hostile to his appoint
ment, not because he is Jew: but
Sir Michael O'Dwyer, who in cold
blood approved the Amritsar mas
sacre as the official chief of Punjab
government not only denounces even
the restricted measure of self-goV-
eminent now given to the Indians as
pandering to treason, but boldly de-
clares that the policy Of systematic
unbending repression until the ma
tives submit to British rule is the
sole way of saving India for the en-
pire. He is the type of man whom
Reading will have to rely upon in ad-
ministering India. for O'Dwyer is
the beau ideal of an Anglo-1ndian
administrator. The only sort who
rises to the top Of the tree.
Readings patriotism in surrendering
the great and digniied office of lord
chief justice for this bed of barbed wire
cannot be gainsaid. Moreover. he tells
intimates that he never would have done
it for anybody but his friend Lloyd
George. If he attempts to fight the
ODwverist party in India, it will be in
teresting to see what aid he gets from
that friend.
