§ MR. BYLESI beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether having regard to the statements of responsible Indian authorities that the agitation 410 against the partition of Bengal is rapidly growing and that the boycott of Manchester goods is serious and threatening, he can make any statement to reassure the Manchester trading public.
§ MR. MORLEYI am not aware that responsible Indian authorities have made such statements as the hon. Gentleman refers to; but he may be assured that, the Government of India is watching the course of events with all possible attention.
