Excerpt from Colour Impressions: A Report to the Albert Kahn Trustees on the Results of a Journey Round the World, July 21, 1913, to July 24, 1914What appears to be wanted in India is a much more summary system of jurisdiction, freed from some of the safeguards and technicalities which are theoretically intended to protect innocent persons, but which in practice permit a great many guilty persons to escape punishment. Such a system might work hardly on a certain number of innocent persons, but taking the situation as a whole it appears that a greater measure of justice would be secured. It is also probable that under such a system it would be more difficult to secure the conviction of innocent persons on fictitious charges. The present system of administering justice appears to many to encourage discontented persons to commit out rages, as the chances are very much against the guilt being brought home to the offender. Further considera tion of this point, however, may be deferred until we come to consider the general question of Indian unrest.The efforts made by the British rulers in India to enhance the material welfare of the people call for um bounded admiration. Great progress has been made in the matter of providing transit facilities, the enormousexpenditure on trunk roads, railways, and harbour works has opened up the country and rendered it accessible to shipping.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
