"build worthy memorial

to dr.- roy"

Mr. Nehru, in a sig-
ned statement, has appea-
led to the people to build
a worthy memorial to
Dr. Roy. He says that
everywhere in Caloutta
one sees the impress of
Dr.jRoy's hand and his
work. He died as a great
man should, engaged till
the end in activities for
the public good. India
an a whole and not only
West Bengal, while grie-
ving his loss, should re-
joioe also that this man
of vision blessed us with
his work, and his example
and passed away leaving
a breath of his greatness
behind.

"It is fitting that we
should build a memorial
to him after his own
heart."
