Tho stntod alms of tho now act nro "to lntroduco mora responsible government In India." Tho prentn Jjlo of tho act sums up tho general purposes nB follews: "It Is tho declared policy of par llament to provldo for tho Increasing association of Indians In every branch of Indian administration nnd (or tho gradual development of sol govornlng Institutions, with a vlow to tho progressive realization of re sponsible government In Ilrltlsh In dia as an Integral part of tho em pire "Progrois In giving effect to this policy can only bo achlovcd by suc cosslva stages and It la oxpodlent that substantial stops In this direc tion should now bo takon. "Tho tlmo and mannor of each ad vanco can bo dotormlnod by parlia ment upon whom responsibility Ilea for tho wolfaro ndvancomont of tho Indian peoples. Tho action of parliament In such matters must bo guldod by tho co operation rocolvod from those on whom now opportunities of sorvlco will bo conforrod nnd by tho extent to which It Is found that confldenco can bo roposod In tholr sonso of re sponsibility. "Concurrently with tho gradual de velopment of solf-governlng Institu tions In tho provinces of India, It Is expedient to glvo to thoso provlncos In provincial mattors tho largost moa suro of Independence of tho govern ment of India which Is compatible with tho duo dlschnrgo by tho latter of Its own responsibilities." Undor tho tonus of tho act, elec tions aro bolng hold for saats In tho provincial legislative councils and tho Indian legislature, these bolng tho only bodies for which tho act provides popular olnctlons. About G, 000,000 porsons aro enfranchised by tho act, or about l.r per cent of tho cntlro population. Tho oxocutivo govomment In In dia consists undor tho now law of n govornor gonoral nppolntod by tho secretary of Btato for India In I. on don, an oxocutivo council of nlno, thrco mombors of which shall bo In dlnns (heretofore only ono monitor of six was an Indian;) n council of stato, comprising CO members, olect cd nnd nppolntod; and a legislative assembly of 140 mombors, of whom 100 shall bo otoctod nnd tho rest ap pointed; by tho govornor general of India. Tho governor goneral shall bo presldont of tho council of stato and has voto power ovor legislation which comes from tho legislative assombly. Tho legislative assombly can lntro duco legislation, subject to tho ap proval of tho govornor goneral In tho council of stato. Final action on tho budgot rosts with tho governor gen eral and tho council of state. Doth the govornor genorat and tho council nro given power over tariff and rov ues. Army and navy affairs remain undor tho solo control of tho govornor. Tho provincial governments con sist of a govornor appointed by tho secretary of stato tor India In Lon don, an executive council of two mem bers, ono of whom Is an Indian and tho other a European; and a legisla tive council, 70 por cent of whoso mombors shall bo elected and 30 per cent appointed. From tho mombors of this council tho govornor chooses ministers for tho various dopartmonts. Tho act does not confer upon tho Indians comploto responsibility ovor all governmental affairs but reserv es certain subjocts to bo admlnlsterod by tho governor In council.

After a porlod of ton years trial, tho act provides for an Inquiry Into its operations nnd at that tlmo It Is planned to extend Its scopo. Commenting on tho now India act, tho India Information buroau says that tho Ilrltlsh parliament In pans ing this measuro rejected recom mendations mado by tho Indian na tional congress and tho All-India Moslem loaguo which "represents tho most Influcntual political oplnon in India." Tho recommendations of theso bodies woro that India should bo do- clared an equal partner In tho 13 rl tlsh Commonwealth and no moro an Imperial dependency; that Indians should bo allowed to manago tho af fairs in their country excopt the army and navy, llko tho solf-govornlng do minions. They domandod that tho Indian legislative councils should havo full control of tho natlon'h fi nances. When the India act was passed, tho wholo country was Indignant over tho Amrltsar massacro of April, 1919; tho bureau says, and tho In dian national congress charactorlzod tho measuro as "Inadoquato, unsat isfactory and disappointing." Nover tholoss, tho congress asked tho peo- plo to work for tho roforms so as to obtain early establishment of a full responsible government. Continuing tho bureau says: "Sontlment soon began to turn In croaslngly against tho working of tho roforms, Tho publication of tho full account of tho occurrences In tho Punjab and accumulation of Indig nant Moslem opinion against tho Tur kish treaty, togethor with increasing economic distress as evidenced by nu morous strikes ovor tho onttro coun try, aroused popular sontlment against tho Ilrltlsh Indian govern ment to a high pitch. The Indian national congress again met in Sep tontbor, 1920, at Calcutta, passed resolutions to boycott the now Im perials and provincial councils. Since then most of tho hlthorto mombors of thoso councils havo withdrawn tholr candidacies for election to these bodlos, Tho only organization which is working for tho reforms is the group of 'moderates' who havo re mained out of tho Indian national congress tor tho past two years and constitute comparatively, a small numbor of the electorate. "So far as reports Indicate, the olectlons thus far were mainly con-, tested by the 'moderates,' tho largo majority of tho Indian congress and Moslem league, adherents abstaining from voting. Tho situation Is report ed 'delicate' by tho Anglo-Indian Plonoor of northern India, which says that tho results of tho beginnings of tho reform schotuo 'are by no means Bangulno to tho rulers and tho ruled.' " Vtil Tho days of "high cost of lumber" nro past. Recent prlco readjustments, covering a number of month, havo brought lumber prices bock "to earth." In fnct, Lumbar was tho first of all great living commodities to como bock to anywhere near a normal basis. 5 EX-SERVICE MEN, ATTENTION!
