Welfare February 1924

1924

The cause of the continuance of the depres-8d classes generation itfter generation is the same reason that produced serfdom in Europe and Japan the determinatiOn of the rich to keep a hold over the poor. [...] The ultimate labour problem of India is the agricultural problem to raise the_ fifty millions of the depressed classes and to give them a share in the land and the other good things in life so that they may live a human.existence and bring up their children in a way which is farther removed than it is at present from the level of the brute beasts of the field. [...] In the fields we have to consider all the conditions of field labour the indebted-.' ness the daily wage the sale of produce etc. [...] The Illiteracy Barrier They are to-day unfortunately separated from the classes by the high barrier of illiteracy which I may mesure by the graphic method as 92.3 feet high in this province against a barrier of only 1 foot that separates the classes from the masses say in England in the matter of literacy. [...] And the need of removal of this illiteracy is especially urgent in view of the fact that some power of franchise has now been placed in the hands of the people and the country's future progress will largely depelid on the use or abuse of it.
