Mr. Gandhi...
:01:04
...I am instructed to request
your attendance...
:01:07
...at an all-government
conference in London...
:01:10
...to discuss the possible
independence...
:01:15
...of India.
:01:27
Only recently released from prison...
:01:30
...Mahatma Gandhi leaves Bombay
on the SS Rajputana...
:01:34
... to attend the conference
on Indian independence...
:01:36
... called by Prime Minister
Ramsay MacDonald.
:01:41
Mr. Gandhi, the sole
Indian Congress Party delegate...
:01:45
... is staying at Kingsley Hall
in London"s East End...
:01:47
... for the duration of the talks.
:01:49
He"s seen here
amongst local cockneys...
:01:52
... who have taken him
to their hearts.
:01:54
Besides attending the conference...
:01:56
...he has found time to meet
political and religious leaders...
:01:58
... like Mr. Lloyd George...
:02:00
... the Archbishop of Canterbury,
George Bernard Shaw...
:02:04
...and Charlie Chaplin.
:02:08
He journeyed last week
from Kingsley Hall...
:02:11
... to accept an invitation to tea
from King George and Queen Mary...
:02:15
...at Buckingham Palace
before attending the conference.
:02:19
And I would emphasize
that I think our first duty...
:02:22
...is to recognize
that there is not one India...
:02:27
...but several.
:02:29
A Hindu India...
:02:31
...a Muslim India...
:02:33
...and an India of princely states.
:02:36
And all these must be respected...
:02:39
...and cared for.
:02:41
Not just one.
