‘UNITED STATES OF INDIA' URGED IN SIMONREPORT Federation Government Is Chief Proposal of Probe Group. BY HENRY T. RUSSELL United PreM SUfI Correipondent LONDON, June' 24. Recommendations in the second part of the Simon report on India today were believed assured of passage by the British parliament. Chief among the measures advocated is a federation form of government for India. The report outlined in detail a scheme for organizing what might be termed a United States of India, with a constitution entirely flexible and susceptible of wide modification, and holding the hope that the independent native states eventually would join the provinces of British India, of their own free will. • Dominion in Future Important points in the report follow: The principle was enunciated that “any constitutional changes now recommended for British India must have regard to a future development when India as a whole, not merely British India; will take her place among the constituent states of the commonwealth of nations united under the crown.” The attainment of dominion status is left an announced objective of the British government as a development of the future. It is an absolute condition for development of self-government in India that the gateway of the northwest should be safely held, adding, “we hold that for many years the presence of British troops and British officers serving in Indian regiments, will be essential.” ■ Separation of Burma Immediate separation of Burma from India was recommended. A new constitution for Burma and a separate Governor/with gradual extension of government, was recommended. - . . - . The commission strongly recommended ending the present division of authority by which native provincial authority is given control over some matters, and others are “reserved” for the' British government of India. Extension of the franchise to 10 per cent of the population of the present 2.8 percentage is proposed. One of the most significant .and far-reaching recommendations of the report favored putting the police power in the hands of the provincial governments. $45,000 ‘BACK PAY’ IS AWARDED TO SERVANT Board, Room, Occasional $5 All She Was Given for 51 Years.

ALL PATENT OFFICE RECORDS ARE BROKEN Phenomenal Increase Is Due to New Law Raising Fee. By Science Service WASHINGTON, June 24.—A1l Patent Office records for the number of patents issued are being broken during this week with 3,174 issued. This is nearly four times as many as the normal weekly number. The patents issued tliis month have also broken all records with a total of 7,669. or about 17 per cent of the number which will normally be granted for the whole year. Last week 1,722 patents were granted, and the week before the number was 1,497. This phenomenal increase is not due to any unusual activity of American inventors, but to anew law which went into effect on June 1, raising the government fee for a patent from S4O to SSO. Inventors whose patents had been allowed rushed their final fees to the Patent Office before the end of May, in order to avoid paying the extra $lO. It takes about four weeks after payment of the final fee before the patent is issued so that the peak now is being reached.
