THE INDIAN YEAR BOOK

A STATISTICAL AND HISTORICAL ANNUAL OF' THE INDIAN EMPIRE, WITH AN EXPLANATION OF THE PRINCIPAL TOPICS OF THE DAY

EDITED BY STANLEY REED, LL.D.

SECOND YEAR OF ISSUE.

PUBUSHED BY BENNETT, CoLEMAN & Co., LTD., THE "TIMBS OF INDIA" OFFICES, BOMBAY & CALCUTTA. LONDON OFFICE: 99. SHOE LANE, E. C. PREFACE.

In the preface to the first issue of the Indian Year Book, the Editor appealed to the public continuously to edit it, for only in this manner could it assume and retain the qualities requisite in a current handbook to the Indian Empire. · The appeal met with a very welcome response. Whilst the proverbial kindness of tho English reading public induced many grateful words of appreciation, many valuable suggestions were offered, which ha.ve been incorporated in the second. issue so far as possible. H the response has not in all cases been as adequate as was desired, I hope that the critics will appreciate the difficulties of editing the Year Book during a great war. Not only did the war throw a heavy burden of work upon every journalist during the months when the work of revision was. most active, but it also impaire.d the capacity for help of those valued colleagues to whose co-operation so much of the success which has been attained by the Indian Year Book is due . ..4.mongst the new features introduced in response to these suggestions is a. review of the work of the Legislative Councils. The summary of the proceed­ ings of tho Impe~Lcgislative Council has been made as complete as poBBihle; those of the Provincial Councils are naturally ~horter. Another f('aturo is an analysis of the aystems of Local Government in India, though thi~ mnst necea· sarily be incomplete where such wide diversity exists "and when the promised declaration of Government policy is still awaited. The section dealing with the Peoples of India baa also been enlarged from the materials in Mr. Gait1s re­ port on the census of 1911 ; and a special section dealing with manners and cm1· toms has been introduced for those who are visiting India for the firt:Jt. time. The important events of an exceptional year have been recorded with greater fullnesfl, and the part which India has played in the war is described in n separate article.

The Edit-or would gladly have accepted the suggestion to expr~s all valueH in sterling, but a.s long as Indian official literature jumps from rupees to sterling and from millions to crores and lakhs, this is impracticable. An explanatory statement is given on page 314. The Army Commands have been omitted from the present volume, because, owing to the wa.r, any lit>t is out of date by tho time it i.:! printed. In other respects the second issue of the Indian Y car Book, with additions and improvements, closeJy follows the plan pursued in the first volume. The public then evidenced their approval of the work by exhausting a large editiop, within three months of publication. Whilst gratefully acb:nowledging this vnlucd support, and once more offo1ing his thanks to the contributors whoso assistance baa made the Indian Year Book what it is, the Editor would repeat his appc.9.l for continuous editing by tho public, and his ~surance that evepW" practicable suggestion will be embodied in future issues,
