FUTURE OF BURMA
RELATIONS WITH INDIA. RIGHT OF SECESSION WANTED. UNLIKELY TO BE AGREED TO. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received December 24, 10.15 a.m. CALCUTTA, Dec. 23. At the conclusion of six days’ excited debate the Burma Legislative Council rejected by a majority of 10 in a House of 100 members a motion urging separation from India and recommending a conference to define Burma’s future constitution.
A motion proposing Burma’s entry into the India Federation, with the right of secession, was carried. This is not likely to bo agreed to by the British Government as the last days have been reached at the Round Table Conference which decided on the future constitution of Federated India, not including Burma. The Premier has already stated that conditional entry into the federation is impossible.
