THE UNDER-SECRETARY OE STATE
INDIA OEEICE.
The Committee of the London All-India Moslem League
beg respectfully and earnestly to draw the attention of the
Right Honorable the Secretary of State for India to the ex -
treme gravity of the situation the latest development of
Italian activity in the Dardanelles and the Aegean Sea is
creating in the East,
The Committee submit that failure to conquer Libya,
with which object the enterjjrise, condemned by the unanimous
moral conscience of Europe, was undertaken, furnishes no jus
tification for endeavouring to set in flame the whole of the
Eastern World, to create an irreconcilable hostility between
two great religions and to involve neutral Powers ruling over
large Mussulman populations in difficulties by placing their
policy in conflict with the cherished sentiments of their
subj ects.
JH MAY 1912
