The Calcutta Weekly Notes Monday April 20 1942

But the Congress did not say that the National Government should be filled by Congressmen only or by Congressmen at all and it Is not fair to represent it as having demanded that the Congress should be rcognised as the one and the only political party speaking for the whole of India and the only party to which the Government of India could be handed over. [...] Sir George Schuster who ought to have known better has actually laid that charge at the door of the Congress but the published materials show that the truth is on the side of the President of the Congress who has ephasised that the Congress was not thining on those terms at all. [...] Without that taste of reality the people would continue to feel that to fight would be not to fight for the preservtion of their future independence but for the preservation of their present depedence and with that feeling prevailing the Congress was not prepared to undertake the responsibility of a constitutional change which it would be unable to work to the expected and desired result. [...] If a written appliction is received within the time prescribed the Collector is required to refer the matter to the District Judge and a reference may either deal with the measurements of the land the amount of compensation the peson to whom it is to be paid or the appotionment of the money. [...] 23 of the Indian Press Emergency Powers Act must be read as being the notified order and as the application was within two months of the publication of the order in the Official Gazette it was not out of time.
