Halifax Emissions
SeIf.Government by
u. ). Of India
Federal Bar Association
Told There Is No Lack o
VIII by Britain

Lord Halifax, British Ambassador,
last night envisioned for the future
a self-governing United States of
India
He did not indicate whether the
British government would ever
withdraw completely from that
country, but he made it plain that
there was no lack of will" on the
part of Britain to effect such a
federation as soon as possible.
His remarks, made at dinner
meeting of the Federal Bar Associa-
ton at the Wardman Park Hotel,
were regarded as an answer to some
critics of Britain's policies in India.
Lord Halifax reminded his listen
ers of the problems of effecting such
a federation because of the racial
and religious questions. There are
some $50, 900, 900 people in India, who
are divided into British India and
the Indian states, the former COM
prising about three-fourth of the
population and the latter about one
fourth, he pointed out. The Indian
states are ruled by the majarajahs.
Cites Minority Problem.
In British India, made up of II
provinces. each having a cabinet
and Indian Prime Minister. live
about 247, ,00O. 900 persons-70, ,000, 900
of whom are Moslems and 77,000, 900
Hindus, he continued. If these
provinces were suddenly given their
freedom, the Ambassador went on,
the greater number would rule, con-
trolling the railroads, tariffs, ETC.,
and this might put the rights of the
minority group-the Moslenls--in
jeopardy.
1t was at this point that the
speaker said there was no lack
of will" on the part of Britain
to give them self-government, but
there were many problems to the
step. He then said Britain some
day hoped to create the United
States of India
Just prior to his remarks about
India, Lord Halifax had declared
that in the liberty of the dominions
lay the strongest guarantee of
unity"
More Than 400 Present.
In addressing more than 400 law
yers and guests, he said that all
human progress had rested on the
conception of justice under law be-
tween nations, between the state and
the individual and individuals them
selves. The foundation for law is
respect for the pledged word, he
said, adding that this is lone OF
the things this war is about
Law and liberty he termed as
stamped on the opposite sides of
the same coin and said there Is
mo liberty without law and no law
without liberty"
He was introduced by Paul v.
McNutt, Federal security admins
traitor. William E. Reese, president
of the association, presided.
Musical selections were given by
Charles Towbridge, soloist. and Mrs.
Mona L. North, violinist.
