Had the Indian Government at its disposal any native journalist sufficiently interested
or well-informed to write pamphlets and press correspondence equal in quality to the
Algerian production, it would seem possible that Moslem public opinion in India might
have been decently prepared for the present situation. In India the Moslems seem to
know as little of Turkish politics as of Islamic history.
The Tunisian’s memorandum on the Sherif is a remarkable piece of current history
and should assist in arriving at a proper estimation of the Sherif s policy and character
as well as the political world in which he moves.
