lune, 1942 without secret resentment or open retaliation on occasions. "Why should I not lose my temper?" asks Jawaharlal boyishly. "Because you must look elegant and not put on a funeral face or a castor oil countenance", I answer. "Why should 1 be humble — I don't understand humility" he adds. "Because humility irradiates character" is my answer. "All sacrifice shines to greater advantage and [all service bears better fruit when anger is subdued land humility is cultivated. "Jawahar is fifty-two. It is time he grew sober [like most men who reach that age. He is aware of mis shortcoming and that is the surest guarantee that lone day he will turn a new leaf in his book of character." But Jawaharlal does not seem to be turning a new [leaf in his book of character. He only gives a new apology. Very recently, he misbehaved, as usual, at the lAllahabad Station but luckily realized his mistake in good time. In a letter cf apology to Mr. Moolchand Malaviya, iecretary of the Hindu Sabha, Allahabad, Pandit Jawaharlal writes: "Now I am writing to you to apologise to you. At night when I met you at the station I treated you very >adly and used improper language towards you. I am ;orry for this. I was of the opinion that a black flag lemonstration by the Hindu Sabha was an improper ;hing. Those who came to our city did not come for propaganda in the city; they came for a sitting of the Working Committee and were cur guests. I felt very nuch hurt my guest should have been insulted. But sven in this condition, I should not have uttered imtroper words that I uttered and used towards you." Didn't we say before that of all people Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Mahatma Gandhi's heir, should be he last man to complain about the strong language we used in cur comment. We do not, at least, abuse and use improper lan;uage towards guests which the non-violent Mahatna's violent heir seems to do so frequently. We are afraid Jawaharlal Nehru has started thinkng a bit too much of himself lately as he has been giving frequent performances of his good breeding and social education which he seems to have taken in England. It is high time that Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru should learn some good manners; till he does so he will remain a headache to the nation. "Men's evil manners live in brass; their virtues We write in water". (Shakespeare).
