This event is the partitioning of British India, something that may well lead to its departure from the British Commonwealth of nations. When Lord Mountbatten succeeded Lord Wavell as the Viceroy of India in late February, he was aware that the tasks that he faced in that office would be completely different from the problems that had occupied his lengthy chain of predecessors since the creation of the office of Viceroy by Lord Canning in 1858.

  • Government Records Concerning the Roswell Crash
    ...... ·- .. · United States General Accounting Office GAO· Washington, D.C. 20548 National Security and International Affairs Division B-262046 July 28, 1995 The Honorable Steven H. Schiff House of Representatives Dear Mr. Schiff: On July 8, 1947, the Roswell Anny Air Field (RAAF) public information office in Roswell, New Mexico, reported the crash and recovery of a "flying disc." Army Air Forces personnel from the RM.F's 509th Bomb Group were credited with the recovery. The following day, the press reported that the Commanding General of the U.S. Eighth Air Force, Fort Worth, Texas, announced that RAAF personnel had recovered a crashed radar-tracking (weather) balloon, not a "flying disc." After nearly 50 years, speculation continues on what crashed at Roswell. Some observers believe that the object was of extraterrestrial origin. In the July 1994 Report of Air Force Research Regarding the Roswell Incident, the Air Force did not dispute that something happened near Roswell, but reported that the most likely source of the wreckage was from a balloon-launched classified government project designed to determine the state of Soviet nuclear weapons research. The debate on what crashed at Roswell continues. Concerned that the Department of Defense (DOD) may not have provided you with all available infonnation on the crash, you asked us to determine the requirements for reporting air accidents similar to the crash near Roswell and identify any government records concerning the Roswell crash. We conducted an extensive search for government records related to the crash near Roswell. We examined a wide range of classified and unclassified documents dating from July 1947 through the 1950s.

  • Major Economic Changes in 1948
    UNITED NATIONS MAJOR ECONOMIC CHANGES IN 1948 Department of Economic Affairs Lake Success, New York January 1949 Major Economic Changes in" 1948 Department of Economic Affairs UNITED NATIONS Lake Success, New York January 1949 UNITED NATIONS PUBLICATIONS Sales No.: 1949. n.C. I PREFACE Ma]or Economic Changes in 1948 is the third of a series of reports dealing with world economic conditions, prepared by the Department of Economic Affairs of the United Nations. The first, Economic Report: Salient Features of the World Economic Situation 1945-47, was issued in January 1948; a supple- ment to that report, Selected World Economic Indices, was issued in July 1948. The purpose of the present publication is to make generally available a preliminary review of important economic developments which occurred during 1948. It is being issued at this time in order to provide the Economic and Social Council with a useful factual background for discussion of the current world economic situation at its eighth session in February 1949. A comprehensive economic survey of the world situation will be issued towards the middle of 1949. That survey will take account both of the regional economic reports which will become available during the early months of 1949 from the secre- tariats of the regional economic commissions of the United Nations in Europe, Latin America and the Far East, and of the economic activities of the specialized agencies. Part I of Major Economic Changes in 1948 provides a broad picture of the main economic develop- ments during the year 1948, based on data, necessarily incomplete for the year, which were available at the time the report was prepared.

  • 2 the Three Partitions of 1947
    2 The three partitions of 1947 Elections, commissions, protest and strife The years 1945 to 1947 were marked by intense struggle in the sub­ continent. What the Second World War established, and the end of the war only underlined, was the changed military, political and economic position of Britain in the world and the radical transformation of the political temper in India. All this lent unprecedented urgency to the question of the transfer of power and the establishment of national gov- ernment(s) in the subcontinent. It was in this situation that the Indian National Congress leadership was released from jail, efforts at mobilisa­ tion of different sections of the society were actively renewed, large-scale urban demonstrations and rural uprisings occurred, new elections were held and sustained high-level constitutional negotiations took place after 1945. Much of the politics of the previous three or four decades had been about national liberation. It was a serious complication that the call for Indian self-government was now joined by the call for Muslim self- government in a new country to be named Pakistan. Talk of independence was rife. However, while the Congress and those in sympathy with it ex­ pected the independence of a united India, the Muslim League slogan became 'Pakistan for Independence'. There were two nations in India, it was argued, and the acceptance of the Pakistan demand was the only road to the genuine independence of all Indians, the Muslims in a free Pakistan and the Hindus in a free Hindustan.
