BRITISH ‘STONE’ IS 300-POUNDER
It’s Big Aid in Cracking Down On Indian Tribes. By PHILLIPS TALBOT
Times Foreign Correspondent PESHAWAR, India, Nov. 18.—“A lump of sugar in one hand and a big stone in the other.” This’ is the formula by which British officials have been dealing with the Moslem Pathan tribes of the northwest frontier for 100 years. Indian Nationalists complain
quently falls on innocent bystand ers. eb Yet, whatever program the new Mr. Talbot government adopts on the northwest frontier, it probably will have to build on the same general lines. For these tribes resist external influences as stoutly as American Indians did a century ago. They live in a tangled mountainous strip that runs from next to the Soviet border southwestward for almost 500 miles to Baluchistan. Their villages are within India, but not a part of it. Their western frontier is the Durand line "that divides India from Afghanistan, On the east, where the foothills of the Hindu Kush and- Suleiman ranges sink into the plains, is the “administrative border” of the northwest frontier province. This separates the tribal areas from settled districts in which British Indian law prevails. Old Tribal Laws Only the tribal writ, patterned on the old Mosaic code of an eye for an eye and a life for a life,
rules the tribal territories. The Indian government, -however, attempts to protect military roads and installations by indirect controls over the tribes. Its technique is theoretically simple, according to John Wilson, the young and enthusiastic British assistant political agent in North Waziristan. “As our law means nothing here,” Mr. Wilson said, “our system is to hold each Maliki responsible for his own countryside. “If he needs help, we lend him constabulary. But when trouble occurs we crack down on him.” Silent testimony to .the incomplete success of this policy was the tus in which Mr. Wilson's party rode. To protect four passengers on the Waziristan journey, nine rifle guards sat inside the vehicle and six more on its roof. Villagers Migrate The individual tribesman in Waziristan is illiterate, nomadic, and habitually broke. North Waziristan, an agency about the size of Connecticut with an estimated population of 110,000, has nine primary schools and one middle school. Whole villages migrate yearly between Afghanistan and Waziristan. This unprofitable life encourages raiding, looting and kidnaping in government-protected areas across the administrative border. Here is the core of the tribal problem. How can they get a decent living without raiding their neighbors? The partial British answer has been to pump money into tribal communities by offering sugary contracts for “trucking, mail, road maintenance, cloth distribution and similar “activities. Big Rock Falls Some tribesmen are employed in the constabulary and some Malikis get subsidies for keeping the peace. The proud tribesmen call these payments tribute, When sugar does not work, they feel the big rock. It fell on one section last summer after residents had kidnaped the political agent of South Waziristan and demanded $33,000 ransom. Six of their villages were razed with a. thousand 500pound bombs. But of course they were warned to leave before the bombing started. Jawaharlal Nehru, head of the Indian interim government, has yet to announce his new policy for the tribal areas. It will probably include provision for more schools and hospitals, and generally more sugar than big stone. But it is hard to see how the new government can operate, at least in the beginning, without both.
