Britain Won't Yield
To Demands in India,
Cripps Declares
Predicts Civil Uprising
If Freedom Is Granted
Before End Of War
Fs the Associated Press.

LONDON, Aug. 6.-Sir Stafford
Cripps, whose mission to settle thG
Indian problem failed last spring,
declared in statement today that
Britain intended to preserve law
and order" In India until the war
ended.
After the war, he said. the Indian
people will be given an opportunity
to attain the self-government which
Indian nationalist leaders are de-
manding be granted them now and
for which they are preparing to
launch q civil disobedience cam
paign.
Sir Stafford made his statement
to the press as the working COM
mittee of the All-India Congress
party adopted a resolution demand
ing independence for India. The
resolution will be put before the
full committee of the party at q
meeting beginning in Bombay to-
morrow.
Not Too Late, He Says.
"We make no threats" Cripps
wrote, but we must assert un-
equivocally our duty to India, to
great minorities and to the United
Nations to preserve law and order
until hestilities cease and we, can
then give as we have promised the
fullest opportunity for attainment
of self government by the Indian
people.
at is not yet too late for the
Indian people to decide upon rapid
and ordered progress.
II can assure them that the
British people are as determined
upon self-government for India as
they are themselves. We ask the
great masses Of India to be patient
for short time longer while the
cause of freedom Is being fought
out, not because we want to delay
but because the hard facts OF war
make q complete change impossible
at the moment.
II sincerely hope that we shall
all of us face these difficult ques-
tions with calmness, sincerity and
mutual trust because I am con-
vinced that if both peoples so exer-
else their will to solve our prob
lens there need be no violence.
india has indeed great and
free future before her in which she
can make her special contribution
to the well-being of mankind. The
first and indispensable part of that
contribution is to work with the
United Nations for the defeat Of
Fascism and Of brutal aggression. +"
Envisions Confusion.
Declaring that Mohandas K
Gandhi has asked the British gov
ernment to walk out of India and
let the people settle their differ
ences-even II it meant chaos and
confusion, Sir Stafford said what
\ would really result would be:
THE police would cease to have
any authority, courts would no
longer function and there would
be no laws and no order. The evil
minded could pillage the land and
disorder and crime would run. riot. y
The chaos in India at this mo-
ment, Sir Stafford said, would "af-
feet vitauy the whole war against
the Axis powers"
The dificulty, he declared, was
whether in conditions Of chaos
and complete lack Of law and order
an Indian government can estab-
lish itself, pass all necessary laws
lay down q completely new consti.
tuition and get agreement Of all Sec
tions of Indian opinion SO as tt
avoid immediate civil war"
Violent statements and threats
, he said, cannot provide a solution
to the problem. They can only ex
acerbate feeling and make a CLASH
Of forces inevitable"

Back On Throne

LONDON - British Ethiopian
agreement was completed today in
London providing for restoration
of full sovereignty to Halle Selas-
sic and for assistance to his re-
claimed kingdom designed to place
it on sound economic basis.
Details of the agreement are to
be announced later but it was re-
ported that it includes clauses CO.
vering close military cooperation
during the war.
It was said these probably pro-
vide for the use of British officers
as advisers for the native Ethiop-
ian army and for free allied use of
bases. and communications.
Halle Selassie, whose kingdom
was annexed by Italy in 1886, re-
turned to his land from exile last
year and aided in the campaign
which wrested it and the rest of
Italian East Africa from the Ital-
ians. He returned to Adds Ababa
last May.
