Dear Sir: Our attention has been drawn to the editorial, in The Summer Daily of the 26th instant, headed, "Hindu and Other Radicals." There are state- ments in the communication referred to in the editorial, and in parts of the editorial itself, which are liable to lead to a misunderstanding of our at- titude regarding the political situa- tion in our country. The word "radi- cal" in India has been associated with the revolutionary party believing in violence, and preaching the violent creed, with their goal nothing less than complete independence for the country.
