Scope and content
Part 2. Sapru agreed that, though leaders should be arrested, they should avoid arresting others and let those arrested go if possible. There are large numbers of excitable people wishing to be arrested, and public opinion is difficult to manage. Reading took the opportunity of a deputation yesterday to express his views, emphasising, however, the importance of continuing protection against intimidation.
