of the Sikhs who are domiciled there to bring their wives and their children, (Cries of shame, shame.') The law is the same but administration is widely une qual, so unequal that they cannot bring their wives and children, and the law or the administration still remains the same in a pi tig of declarations about justice and what not, in view of the hostilities and in view of the splendid aid which India is said to have rendered to the Empire. How ara these difficulties to be mob,. I do nob intend to go into details, but the Congress proposes that this difficulty can be meb by an appeal to the sense of justice of the Colo- nial statesmen and by an appeal to the Imperial Gov- ern menu, I faar that the Congress can only do this, bub the Resolution so far as it goes in one respect is inade- quate to the occasion. Lard Hardinge, only a few months ago, made a fervent appeal to Indian publicists and to Indian public statesmen for hoping him to an honourable solution which will retain iun dignity of India, at the same time, nod because of any trouble to the Self Governing Colonies. Lord Hardingo is still waiting for an answer, that answer is not supplied by the Congress, nor can it ba by the Congress ; it is to ba supplied by an association of the specialists, if I may so call them. The Congress has given them the lead, and it; is for these associations to frame the details in which they will have to examine the rival claims and to offer to Lord Hardinge a solution which shall be saturat- ed with details, a solution which will satisfy the Colonial Governments as well as the Indian people and will nob take away anything whatsoever from the just demands that this Resolution makes. With these words I have much pleasure in proposing this Resolution.
