Britain To Give Up Power In India

LONDON, (P) - The British government announced yesterday that it would transfer power in h. dia to the Indians almost immedi- ately and let the Indian people de- eide whether there shall be one or two governments.
 The announcement was made simultaneously by Prime Minister Attlee in the House of Commons; by the Viceroy, Lord Mountbatten, in broadcast to the Indian peo- pie; and by the British govern ment in a white paper.
 Legislation will be introduced during the present session of par liament for the transfer of power this year-on a Dominion status basis-to one or two Indian gov ernments, depending on which system the Indian people sub scribe to.
 Thus until the absolute with drawal of the British, scheduled for July of 1948, India will be composed of one TO two self-gov- erning countries which will be- long to the British Commonwealth of Nations.
 Former Prime Minister Winston Churchill threw the backing of the Conservative opposition behind the principle of temporary Do- minion status for India-whether as united country of 39O, 100000 or as separate Pakistan Moslem and Hindustan Gindu)-75 re- served the right to oppose details of the plan.
 Churchill said a "blood bath for India may stand very near" He added that the partition pro- posal might "offer to India some prospect of escape from one of the most hideous calamities that has ever ravaged the vast expans- es of India"
 Communist Willie Gallacher of fered the sole opposition to the plan. He said he was "the more suspicious of the solution because MT. Churchill, who has a bad rec ord in connection with India, gives it such support"
