New Ferment in India.

In 1937 a tremendous event occurred. It is the cause of all the fermentation now. It is the core of the story, and out of it no one quite knows what will grow. The tremendous event was that, after the passage of the new Government of India Act, elections were held in the eleven provinces of British India, and that Congress won in seven of them and took office. Thus provincial autonomy, as promised in the new act, came into being. Thus the congress, the congress which had fought Great Britain, came into the British structure.
