Gandhiji marrates chief objections to the proposed bill (1935) to give a new constitution to India, exposes the hollowness of its claims of advance and shows how if falls short of expectations even of the Liberal Party. Gandhiji makes it clear that the British ministers may be honest in their intentions and so Gandhiji has not bitterness in his heart but then political India does not agree with them. (A clear cut and able exposition of congress stand against the new constitution of 1937)

Hiralal seems to be setting. Ramdas thinks of going in Business. Regarding Sita's education my opinion is that both of you should teach her all that you can till she is 16 and then she may go to school. School education can never replace home education. Some times it spoils the child.
