'After Churchill's Speech' from Le Monde (9 March 1946)
‘After Churchill's speech' from Le Monde (9 March 1946) Caption: On 9 March 1946, the French daily newspaper Le Monde analyses the international reaction to the address given by Winston Churchill at Westminster College, Fulton, Missouri, four days earlier.

First of all, we should look at those reactions that are based on too little information or on too superficial an impression. Some showed signs of indignation because Mr Churchill suggested military agreements (he avoided the word alliance) between Great Britain and the United States. But the New York Times and the Daily Mail report today that the British-American HQ has always been stationed in Washington since the end of the war. Its meetings are said to be almost as frequent as during the hostilities. Great Britain is represented there by Field Marshal Wilson, the United States by General Eisenhower. -
Sindhi Community – Shiv Sena
Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: IND30284 Country: India Date: 4 July 2006 Keywords: India – Maharashtra – Sindhi Community – Shiv Sena This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. Is there any independent information about any current ill-treatment of Sindhi people in Maharashtra state? 2. Is there any information about the authorities’ position on any ill-treatment of Sindhi people? RESPONSE 1. Is there any independent information about any current ill-treatment of Sindhi people in Maharashtra state? Executive Summary Information available on Sindhi websites, in press reports and in academic studies suggests that, generally speaking, the Sindhi community in Maharashtra state are not ill-treated. Most writers who address the situation of Sindhis in Maharashtra generally concern themselves with the social and commercial success which the Sindhis have achieved in Mumbai (where the greater part of the Sindh’s Hindu populace relocated after the partition of India and Pakistan). One news article was located which reported that the Sindhi community had been targeted for extortion, along with other “mercantile communities”, by criminal networks affiliated with Maharashtra state’s Sihiv Sena organisation. -

Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India
Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India Gyanendra Pandey CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Remembering Partition Violence, Nationalism and History in India Through an investigation of the violence that marked the partition of British India in 1947, this book analyses questions of history and mem- ory, the nationalisation of populations and their pasts, and the ways in which violent events are remembered (or forgotten) in order to en- sure the unity of the collective subject – community or nation. Stressing the continuous entanglement of ‘event’ and ‘interpretation’, the author emphasises both the enormity of the violence of 1947 and its shifting meanings and contours. The book provides a sustained critique of the procedures of history-writing and nationalist myth-making on the ques- tion of violence, and examines how local forms of sociality are consti- tuted and reconstituted by the experience and representation of violent events. It concludes with a comment on the different kinds of political community that may still be imagined even in the wake of Partition and events like it. GYANENDRA PANDEY is Professor of Anthropology and History at Johns Hopkins University. He was a founder member of the Subaltern Studies group and is the author of many publications including The Con- struction of Communalism in Colonial North India (1990) and, as editor, Hindus and Others: the Question of Identity in India Today (1993).

My interest in Pakistan was first aroused when, as a child, I used to hear stories from my late father, an air force officer, about two Pakistan air force officers. In undivided India they had been his flight commanders in the Royal Indian Air Force. They and my father had fought in World War II together, flying Hurricanes and Spitfires over Burma and also after the war. Both these officers later went on to head the Pakistan Air Force. -

J. Brum baugh entitled, "Why Be a College President?" About 100 college presi dents are inaugurated each year; and in the Association, of which Dr. Brum baugh tabulates statistics, the average life of a college president is 12 years. Olie might rightfully ask, "Had you read his article, and had you seen the precarious position which he assigns to a college president, would you have accepted this responsibility?" I think I would. And it is for that reason I want to share with you some of my thoughts which have clustered around my accept ance of a position which is reputedly one of the most hazardous, lonely, and yet strenuous jobs into which a man may pour his life. -
