ALLAHABAD, FEBRUARY 17: Noticing the debate in Parliament, the “British” says that Mr. Montagu and his friends had begun to awaken the public in India to a sense of politics, resulting in meaningless strikes, agricultural riots, mob outrage. , and trade disorder, which, unless stopped, will do more to India than Russia. In a crisis, the government is justified in adopting a system of executive orders which puts expediency before validity. It should be clarified that the old Roman proverb about the security of the republic being the first law is based on a correct understanding of the responsibilities of the administration. The “Statesman” observed that Mr. Montague was either incapable or unwilling to give an adequate account of the non-cooperation movement to Parliament. Neither Mr. Montagu nor Mr. Lloyd George appears to have given any serious thought to the ways of retaining British power.
