large.
NEW DELHI, Nov. 20-By cable
(Delayed)-1Ionarchy will not justi-
fy itself unless Indian rulers prove
themselves worthy of their past and
pull together in pursuance of the
common.good of the whole of India,
Sir C. P. Ramaswami Iyer, Dewan of
Travancore, declared in a speech at
Trivandrum.
Very few of the .princes and
maharajahs of India seem to real-
ize that within the next few months
the question that would be put to
theim and will have to be answered
by them at the bar of history is

Whether they have justified their
existence and continuance," Sir
Iyer said.
Two hundred Afridi leaders told
Viceroy Sir Archibald Wavell, dur-
ing his tour of the northwest fron-
tier, that in the event of a British
withdrawal from India, they would
request that the Khyber Pass be re-
turned to them, the original owners.
A spokesman for the leaders
said the Afridi might then elect to
remain aloof or link themselves
with Afghanistan, and added that
in view of the communal disturb-
ances in India they had no desire
to negotiate with the interim gov-
ernment until Hindu-Muslim dif-
ferences had been settled.
The Viceroy asked the leaders to
remember "that your interests are
bound up with India as a whole and
not with any political party."

Three great irrigation works, which
will ultimately raise India's food pro-
duction by about 2,000,000 tons a
year, are to be built on the Mahana-
di, Damodar and Kosi rivers.
Conceived on multi-purpose lines
similar to T.V.A., they are expected
to irrigate about 6,000,000 acres of
land and genarate 1,500,000 kilowatts
of hydro-electric power. Over $900,-
000,000 will be expended on the three
projects.

extra-curricular life with their excel-
lent student government, their par-
ticipation in student publications, in
dramatics, in organizations interested
in music, in art, in scientific work,
and in social enterprises. They have
also demonstrated their sense of the
importance of academic work and
their sinceritr in the main purpose
of college by their superior position
each year on the comparative schol-
arship chart.
"I thing it is equally foolish to
claim that women who attend
women's colleges lead an abnormal,
segregated existence. They are no
more immured within the walls of
their campuses than the men are in
such colleges as Princeton and
Yale. I personally am glad that the

women of the American common-
wealth have the same privilege as
the men of choosing whether they
will go to a coeducational college or
to one for their own sex exclusively.
"There are advantages and disad-
vantages in both systems, but both
are making a sincere effort to edu-
cate the young people who enroll with
them, and in their graduates can
demonstrate their success. That one
system should be defended by be-
littling or criticizing the other seems
to me both unjustified by the facts
and unworthy of the educated mind."

after a paitial preliminary work

sending them back to work despite
the contempt action.
Small Emergency Stock
Krug, tightening the freeze of bi-
tuminous supplies ordered in advance
of the walkout, disclosed that it had
netted less than two days' normal
production for emergency distribution
beyond supplies then held by dealers
and on docks.
"This criti:ally small emergency
