The two most important manufacturing industries in the Dominion, from the standpoint of the net value of the products and of employment afforded, are the pulp and paper and the lumber indust and practically every industry derive substantial benefits from the ex- ploitation of the forests or, Thofigh the home consumption | to | hor one | - amountmg and of wood is large, the equivalent of half cords pep capita, about one cord being fuelwood, forty per cent. of the wood cut is exported in the following products, 46 per cent.; pulp, 13 poles, etc., 3 per and other raw cent, The export luets ere valued 300.000, whereas the amount to only £7.500.000, ing a favourable trade halance about £50,800,000, Naturally, greater part of this trade is the United States bu one forms: se per cent.; pan of the ith Creat | ahout Britain, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Japan, and China are important markets. Products to the value of about £16,800,000, including fuelwood, hewn railway ties, poles, etc., re- quire little or no further manu- facture after leaving the forest, mt the conversion of logs into lumber and shingles, and pulp- wood into pulp and paper, adds materially to the value of the raw material, Industry Ranks First The lumber industry ranks first the menufacturing indus from the stand point of number of second; in net value of prodnet and wage distribution: and, third in eapital investment.

To any, who have feared the results { the policy of recent years, it will pear, at first sight, as agreat re- that the Government of India at last mad, 1t perfectly clear it intends to enforce obedience ¢ law of the land.

This action does not re- present a retrograde movement. On | the contrary, it is the logical out- {come of a series of events which | have led up to the present situa- tion, The attempts to proclaim the peucy of the last Viceroy as purely one of weakness and vacillation and to glorify the action taken by Lord Willingdon as strong and states manlike, although periectly natur arise from want of complete under- standing of the real positivii.. i sc disorder two policies, The action of the Government of India is the natural outcome of the situation which has arisen, a situation not caused by the policy of Lord Irwin's Government but by the failure, so far, of Moder ate opinion in India to control ev- ents, or to make its influence felt. Two Schools of Opinion In a recent letter to The 1'imes. I endeavored to show that in the House of Commons, as in the coun- try, there are two schools of opin- ion regarding our Indian pliocy. There are those who feel that our attitude has been weak and flabby and that sharp and decisive action should ave been taken long ago to show clearly where the British Raj stands. Others hold the view that, while it is essential and indeed the first principle of government to maintain law and order in the strictest. sense, it was most desir- able to give every chance to Indian opinion to gather itsclf behind the Government. If one surveys events in India dispassionately, it will be found, I think, that we have been closely following the policy laid down in the Act of 1919. "Many of us believed that Act went too far at the time, and still- more do we believe much has been read into it by Indian political opinion that was never stated or intended, Yet it is clear that the policy there enunciated was the progressive real- ization of self-government in India within the Empire, and the increas- ing association with us in the gov- sjtment of that great country of the people who live in it.

"hen came he second Round- lable Conference which Mr. Gandhi, at some risk, in my opinion, to his political position in India, decided to attend. There seemed a possibility that the policy for which Lord Irwin had striven would succeed, that Moderate opin- ion in India would steadily gather strength, and that, with a further carnest of this country's intention sred {to go forward, we should be able to say that the bulk of Indian opin- ion was behind our policy and working with us for its fulfilment. Unfortunately, events in India, ave also been moving during the lust few months. Many realized, when Mr. Gandhi left Bombay, that his position would be likely to be undermined, . and his followers get out of hand. [ am afraid there is no doubt this is what hag happened. It is so easy to be an Extremist in India and so very difficult to be a Moderate. 1 have little doubt in my own mind that, during the last few months, there has been a steady strengthening of the extreme ele- ment, and that it was mad quite clear to Mr. Gandhi, on his return, that his throne tottering and that, if he wished to retain his pos- ! ition, he would be well advised to tall into line with the policy which his lieutenants intended to try to , enforce with or without his consent, I hat was, to raise the cry of com- plete self-government immediately tor India, with separation from this country, I have, of course, no means of knowing to what extent Mr. Gand- hi may be a willing or unwilling participant in the events which fol- lowed hls return, but I have little doubt in my own mind that he was presented with an ultimatum on his arrival, and I think it is more than likely that he is not sorry once again to find himself in the calm seclusion afforded by a period of incarceration at Poona, a seclusion which gives him opportunity for that contemplation of human frail- ties and failures denied to those ig engage in an active political ife, It takes a stronger man than Mr. Gandhi ever' was to stand against the forces he has called into being. He has constantly been represented in this country as a' great lcader and a saint. Like most of his com- patroits from Kathiawar, he is a born politician. To this he adds, I do not doubt, a kindly disposition, ecas- ily swayed by stories of oppression er distress. Such .a character in India easily becomes a revered per- sonage when to a political flair is added a rare knowledge of the value of advertisement. But it is not the character that produces a great leader, and even the exaggerated homage he has received although it may well have.tended to obscure his iudgment.. has not: caused him to 'lose his perspective entirely, He knows, I' think, that the way of the martyr is probably the best and easiest at this juncture.
