JAWAHARLAL NEHRU

( Continued from ii;)

He spares no pains and f-els no sacrifice
too great f,r shaping India into a great country.
Now ho has no other ambition except this. His
personal needs- are few and far between. Comf rt
and rest have met with complete burial, at his
hands. God has endowed him with uncommon
spirit and stamina.

Jawaharlal stiuck the whole world with awe
and wonder during this period of trails and tii,
bulaiion. Storm blew, cyclone raged, waves le[)t
and roared to engulf the m-w boat of the newly
born free India but Jawahar with utmost dignity,
grace, calmness and strength held the rudder in
Ids tight grip and foiled their vile attempt. Dr.
John Hayness Holmes when he visited India in
October, 1947 said ‘Prime. Minister Panditv-Neh U
is proving himself to be the greatest. Statesman
in the World today. In the partition outbreak
he encountered the supreme test triumphantly. I
found in Nehru, a man utterly devoted to. his
country and masterful in his comprehension and
grasp of the problems that 'now confront1. India
and the World. * ■

But the critical pe.iiod of supreme trial is
not . over. The* country is passing through a period
of crisis nepotism have engulfed the whole country.
Tire world is eagerly watching the day today ad-
ministration of the Indion Union during t.h.s
period of transition; \trial and consolidation. But
it is as true as truth itsejf that Jawahar will
come out of his firy ordial 'as shining, and pure
as bright gold. India will emerge-out successfully
of his transitional' pangs and occupy her rightf.il
place in the comity of nations. He is destined
to ferry the boat tliroughyaj,! turmoils and tornadoes
and bring back a reign of. pefVce and tranquility
So long India s destinies areplnced in his worthy
and mighty hands no. sort., of catastrophe or
catarlys-n will overtake her.- He is destined to
fulfill his Master’s dream of Ram Raj.. Let every-
one of us strengthen his hands and pray^ to God
for his long lif - and good health. That "will be
the truest tribute to Jawaharlal on his birthday.

Owners of cars and proprietors of Trans-

and discipline. “1/ore haste, less speed”
is a maxim worth following, down traffic
should give way to up-going traffic !
