In spite of the little group in the British Isles who I
have been so selfish as to deny India its independence
because they have reaped untold millions in profits
and who still want to keep the practice, war or no I
war. one group of Indians has repudiated the action '
of the All-India Congress That body practically in-
vited the Japanese a few days ago to walk on in. say-
ing they would meet no resistance. Just as they
haven't in some other smaller countries that were '
under British domination.
But India's 80.000.000 Moslems pledged themselves
Monday to fight the Japanese—“with tooth and daw.
with sticks and stones and bare hands. If necessary ”
The All-India Congress had voted "non-violent"
opposition to a Japanese invasion, which was tanta-
mount to an invitation to come right ahead
Now the Moslems have pledged themselves to fight.
The trouble about that is that the Moslems con-
stitute so small a part of India's population. 80.000.000
people sounds like a lot of people, and would be any-
where else in the world. But India has a population
of 330,000.000 people, the greatest of any nation in |
the world. And outside of the Moslems, that popula-
tion 1* composed principally of Hindus, of a differ-
ent religious faith The Hindus undoubtedly contrail-
•d. the committee of the All-India Congress, which
made the decision last week that virtually turned
Undla to their ”prother•’, Japan.
For that reason, small hope may be held forth that
the Japanese will not be welcomed in India even
