gujarAta varnAkyulara sosAITI itihAsa vibhAga 3 sana 1909 thI 1933 - jIvana parivartana " In the study of the nations' history a new orientation is taking place. Between the extremes of utter contempt for the past and unreasoning glorification of it, we are settling down to the view that during the chequered history of centuries there were achievements of which we might reasonably feel proud. The errors of outlook and of organisation which made for our weakness are recognised; the need for fresh effort to gather up all that is best and most vitalising is also felt; every Indian thinker of to-day draws his main inspiration from the past of the race, while he is ready to profit from the experience of other nations old or new. x x x x To those that can discern, the modern tendency in India, in politics and economics, in art and litera. ture is towards a higher synthesis of matter and spirit. * * * *

The Indian renaissance is full-blooded. Its facets are many and of remarkable splendour. The final fruition of our hopes, the realisation of the dreams of our prophets and poets is yet in the future. But, thought is power: great things are achieved in idea even before they are achieved in fact. To will and to plan greatly, to dream great dreams and see splendid visions-this is the auspicious beginning as well as the first condition of all advance. Triveni, p. 336. | (Vo.

The development of urban and rural areas is characterised by a marked disparity. Low yield per acre, uneconomic fragmentations, inadequate irrigation and enormous indebtedness of peasants have made agriculture, the most important occupation of the country, and extremely uuproductive and unprofitable industry. Industries are handicapped by insuffi.cient capital resoures, inefficient Tecknical Service and low quality of raw materials. The policy of discriminating protection has afforded many of them a small measure of security, but unless it is supplimented by a readjustment of internal freight rates and the adoption of a more sympathetic stores purchase policy their full development will always lag behind their potentialities. Banking is still undeveloped and its structure ill balanced. A great part of our population and a large number of our smaller towns are still ill-provided with banking facilites. In the absence of Industrial, exchange and land mortgage banks our industries, foreign trade .and agriculture are forced to fall back entirely upon their own resources and in many cases, face competi. ition from foreign countries which enjoy immenselly

15 greater advantage in these respects. Our transport system lacks co-ordination and cost of transport is far too dear. We depend for the stability of our public finance upon very limited and inelastic sources of revenue and the expansion of benificial Governmental activities is seriously hampered by the inelasticity of their revenue.

prakaraNa 9 caritra graMtha "......... That the true biographer is like a Kodak. His business is to record facts and statements as they are, not as they might have been. Biographical writing may be likened to a faithful protrait painting. The biographer should present his subjects not as demi-Gods or super-men but as the human beings they are. When Velasquez-the Spanish master-artist painted King Philip the Fourth, he drew him just as he was ; fat, ugly and repulsive. Velasquez's work was entirely objective, and so should be every biographer's.

prakaraNa 14 sAITInuM sudhAreluM baMdhAraNa In one important respect England differs conspiciously from most other countries. Her constitution is to a large extent unwritten, using the word in much the same sense as when we speak of unwritten law. Its rules can be found in no written document, but depend, as so much of Engligh law does, on precedent modified by a constant process of interpretation. Many rules of the constitution have in fact a purely legal history, that is to say, they have been developed by the law Courts, as part of the general body of the common law.

172 No. E. 71 of 1933. Ahmedabad Office of the GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, P. O. Box. No. 23. Dated, 26th May 1933. From, LADY VIDYAGAURI RAMANBHAI NILKANTH, B. A. Hon. Secretary, GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD. TO, THE EDUCATIONAL INSPECTOR, N. D. AHMEDABAD. Sir, With reference to your letter No. 2205 of 1933 dated the 24th inst. I have the honour to inform you that the Government receives under the act XXV of 1867 a copy of each book published in the British India and I understand, there is no adequate and proper arrangement for collection and preservation of these books. The Gujarat Vernacular Society is a literary Institution founded for the growth and development of Gujarati language and literature. So the Society is naturally very anxious that steps may be taken for collection and preservation of all books published in Gujarati. The Society possesses the best and largest collection of Gujarati books and if the Government as prayed for in my letter is pleased to help the Society by supply of these books to make its collection as complete as possible, I need not say, it will prove a blessing to students of Gujarati literature. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant. Sd). V. Ramanbhai. Hon. Secretary.

No. E. 109 of 1933. Ahmedabad Office of the GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD, 8th July 1934. From, LADY VIDYAGAURI RAMANBHAI NILKANTH, B. A., Hon. Secretary, GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD. To, RAO SAHEB BHUPATRAI JAMIATRAM SHASTRI, M. A., Educational Inspector, N. D. AHMEDABAD. Sir, In further continuation of my letter No. E. 71 of 1933 dated 26th May last, I have the honour to inform you that in the English Copy Right Act, the publisher is bound to provide six copies of each publication and these copies are then supplied to several libraries in the United Kingdom. When the Indian Registration act of 1867 was passed, its main object was " that copies of every important and interesting work published should be despatched to England to be deposited in the libraries at the India Office, and it is further stated in the said preamble that, " In the interests, too, of history and of the scholars of Europe it is undoubtedly wise to provide that a complete collection of the publications of the press of the country should be made as well as in this country as in England."

Page #209
194 It will be seen from the above para that the Government has from the very beginning insisted on the collection and preservation of all books published in the country. Of these publications, I understand only a few selected books are supplied to the library of India office; the rest are stocked here; but these * books are not properly catalogued and are also not easily accessible to scholars. The development and growth of Vernacular literature is making rapid progress and students are keenly feeling the absence of a good, properly equipped ana complete library. To overcome this difficuity Literary Conferences all over the country are appealing to Government to make suitable arrangements to supply books in the language of their Province to Public Institutions, with proper safegurds, to enable them to complete, as far as possible, their collection of books in their own Vernaculars. There is a movement at present afoot, to supply copies of books received under the Registration Act by Government to the Imperial Library at Calcutta. From above it will be perceived that the Society's request for supply of Gujarati books to its library for collection and preservation is legitimate and just; and I trust, it will receive support from you. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant, SdJ. V. Ramanbhai. Hon Secretary.

No. E- 71 of 1926. AHMEDABAD, Dated, 6th Sept., 1926. From, SIR RAMANBHAI M. NILKANTH, B. A. LL. B., Hon. Secretary, GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD. Ios E. G. TAYLOR, Esq. I. C. S., Collector of Ahmedabad, AHMEDABAD. Sir, I have the honour to state that the Gujarat Vernacular Society is a public body, established for the promotion and spread of Gujarati Language and Literature. It is the oldest institution of its kind

Page #230
195 in the province, being founded by the late Mr. A. K. Forbes in 1848 and is registered under Act XXI of 1860 ( Societies Registration Act ). The Society's offices are situate in the Karanj, just opposite the Collector's office. It has its own building and the upper portion of it, which is named the Premabhai Hall is used for public purposes. In fact it is the Town Hall of the City. The present building of the Society was built in 1901, its foundation Ceremony being performed by the then Commissioner Sir F. S. P. Lely. Since then the work of the Society has vastly inereased and the upper storey the Premabhai Hall is also found to be small and incommodious. It has become necessary to extend the buildings and the Public Hall on the upper storey so as to meet the increasing requirements of the Society as well as the general public. Such extention is only possible by having vacant municipal plot as well as the adjoining three houses on the South-West Corner bearing Municipal Census Nos. 4319-20, 4321-22 and 4323 and city survey & Sheet No. 3,119, 120, 121. It is therefore proposed that the same should be acquired. The Society being a body registered under Act XX1 of 1860 is a company within the meaning of the Land Acquisition Act and the aims and the objects of the Society as also the work it carries on will show that the object of the extension of the buildings is for public purposes within the meaning

Page #231
965 of the said Act. A copy of the latest report of the Society is submitted herewith for information as to the Society's work. The Government have also recognised the Society and its work as a body usesul to the general public by granting to the Society the present site on which the offices are situate on a nominal rental and by further giving an annual grant of Rs. 500/-, I have therefore the honour to request that you will be so gcod as to take the necessary steps to acquire under the Land Acquisition Act at the Society's cost for the above said public purposes the following properties:Census City Sorvey & Nos. Sheet No 3. 4319-20 119 4321-22 120 121 The general plau of the present site of the bliildings and the sight proposed to be acquired is submitted herewith. I have the honour to be, 4323 Sir, te Your most obedient servant, Sd - Ramanbhai M. Nilkanth, Hon.

From, To, pariziSTa 8 Date Nov, 1929. DIWAN BAHADUR K. H. DHRUVA, B. A., President, GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD. J. H. GARRETT, ESQR., I. C. S., Commissioner, Northern Division, AHMEDABAD. Sir, At the request of the Managing Committee of the Gujarat Vernacular Society have the honour to place the following before you for favourable consideration by the Government. 1. The Gujarat Vernacular Society was started by the late Hon. Mr. A. K. Forbes, the then Asstt. Judge at Ahmedabad, on 25th Dec. 1848, with the object of promoting the vernacular literature of Gujarat and spreading useful knowledge through the Vernacular. In this he was joined by many European and Indian Officials of the time and the institution was rendered assistance by Indian Chiefs and gentry. 2. The Society started work by patronising authors and purchasing copies of their works. It also started a collection of old manuscripts of Vernacular literature. 3. The Society opened a public library in 1849 and as necessity for a separate suitable building was felt, Government were approached for a site, which they granted gratis in about 1854-55. The then Nagarseth Himabhai gave a donation of Rs. 4500/for a building and with the help of other donations

Page #240
204 a building was erected on the site granted by Government at a cost of Rs. 7,000/-. This is at present known as the Himabhai Institute situate opposite the present Telegraph Office, outside Bhadra, In 1856 the Society handed over the management of the Institute to a separate Committee. 4. Side by side with the said Library the Society undertook in 1850 the management of a private Primary School. Originally it was a mixed school open both to boys and girls. Later on it was turned into a girl's school exclusively. Through the generous donation of Sethani Harkunverbai of Rs. 4000/- for a building and Rs. 12,000/- towards endowment for its maintenance the School has had a permanent abcde and is known as Harkunver Sethani's school situate at Tankshal, Kalupur. Later on the Society transferred the management of this school to a separate body. 5. The Society's activities extended in all directions for spread of knowledge. It felt the want of a Printing Press for publication of books at cheap price and therefore in 1851 a Litho Press was started. By means of the Press the Society supplied, at low rates a large number of books to the Education Department for use in the Vernacular Schools. 6 In 1854 the society felt necessity of an organ for spread of its aims and objects. So it started the monthly Magazine Buddhi-prakash both for propoganda as also for spread of knowledge and encouragement of Vernacular literature. The Buddhiprakash is being published regularly and is now in the 76th year.

Page #241
205 7. Thereafter in co-operation with the Educa. tion Department the Society undertook preparation of useful books. The "Kavyadohan" (cream of Poetry ) was complied by its Assistant Secretary, the late Kavi Dalpatram Dahyabhai, C. I. E. for the Department of Public Instruction. A Gujarati Grammar text book was also prepared with the help of Government for the Society by Rev. Mr. J. V. S. Taylor, which is even now a good text book. The Society also further undertook the preparation of a good Gujarati Dictionary and this attempt has progressed well upto now though it has had its l ull on account of various difficulties. The work is over but its revision is now well in hand and is expected to progress satisfactorily with co-operation of Government and Gujarati scholars. It is however expected that a work of such importance and comprehensive magnitude will take long years to be completed. It is also besides a very costly undertaking. 8. At its inception, the work of Society was carried on by Europeans who were ardent lovers of the Vernacular and earnestly wished for spread of Education and useful knowledge among the children of the soil. Besides Hon. Mr. Forbes who founded the Society it had the services of Mr. T. B. Curtis as Hon. Secretary and the active co-operation of Sir Theodore C. Hope, Rev. Mr. J. V. S. Taylor, Sir F. S. P. Lely, Mr. E. Giles and many others. 9. As spread of education and knowledge by means of class-books, scholarships etc., was the object of the Society it was deemed necessary to have it registered as a corporate body so that it could act

Page #242
200 as permanent Agency to hold trust funds for educational purpose which could be acquired and attracted on a large scale, if confidence were created among the people. The society was accordingly registered under Act XXI of 1860 on 29-9-1880. 10. After the registration of the Society funds began to flow in steadily. Books-publication branch as well as the library of the society began to grow considerably and the society felt the need of its own home with the necessary facilities for future exterisions. The society therefore approached Government for a grant of land. Government were pleased to grant the society 533 sq. yards of land at its present site opposite Karanj for a nominal occupaucy price of Rs. 582-10-0 and a nominal annual rent of Rs. 5-8-6. Possession of this land was given over to the society on 20th May 1898 and the society thereafter put up its present buildings on the said site. The society feeling the necessity of an adjoining strip of land of 67 sq. yds., again approached Government for the same and this was also granted to the society for a nominal premium of Rs. 71-3-0 and a nominal annual rental of Rs. 9-11-2. Possession of this strip was given to the society on 19th of January 1904. 11. Present buildings of the society with the Public hall forming the first floor of the said buildings are located on the said lands granted by Government and were put up from 1898 to 1924, at an approximate cost of about 31,000/- rupees. The said buildings at present consist of 5 set of rooms 2 of which are used as office accommodating the clerical

Page #243
200 staff; one is put to the combined use of office of the Asstt. Secretary, Library and committee room, one is used as a record room and one is used for stocking the society's publications. The hall on the first floor known as the Premabhai Hall is used for all important meetings in Ahmedabad. The society has provided the hall with the necessary seating accomodation of chairs and has also fitted it with the convenience of electric lights and fans. The society allows the use of this hall for such public functions as are approved by the Hall committee on a nominal charge of Rs. 21 - 12. When the society put up the said buildings its permanent funds amounted to Rs. 67056-6-8 and the number of trust funds under its management was 55 amounting to Rs. 15467C-13-6. The number of trust funds which the society is at present administering is 145 amounting in all to Rs. 471456-6-8 and the amount of its permanent funds is Rs. 1,56,539-8-6. On account of the additions of books to the society's library, the large and growing collection of manuscripts, the increasing number of its publications, the demand for a good and complete library viz., publications with the necessary references' library of books in English, Sanskrit, and other languages, the need for extension of the hall as well as offices of the society is being keenly felt for a long time. 13. The society have therefore resolved to extend the present buildings and hall and also have the necessary extensions for comfortable locating its library with facilities for scholars and re-search

Page #244
209 workers to carry on their work. In this connection it may be noted that the society has recently endowed prizes to be given to research students for writing thesis in Gujarati on either History, literature, economics, sociology or science. 14. The society therefore recently approached Government for acquisition of the adjoining properties bearing the present S. Nos. 4724, 4725, & 4728. Governments have been pleased to undertake the acquisition proceedings as prayed for in view of the fact that the society is a public body rendering useful service to the general public for spread of education and knowledge. 15. Side by side with the said private lands there is a piece bearing S. No. 4726 belonging to the Ahmedabad Municipality admeasuring about 104 sq. yds. The society approached the Municipality who in view of the usefulness to the general public of the society, have passed a resolution for granting the land to the society at a nominal price. 16. The society's present buildings are situated in present S. No. 4729 and cover an area of about 600 sq. yds. The additions theretc by the said acquisition and the grant by the Municipality will give the society a further area about 232 sq. yds. The additional space is however not sufficient for the growing needs of the society particularly for the location of its library. 17. There is no scope for any extension on the north and the east of the present site as the buildings abut on important roads with very heavy and continuous traffic. The only possibility of extension is therefore on the south and the west of the

Page #245
: 220 present site which is hemmed in by Government land on those sides. The land forming present S. No. 4663 admeasuring about 300 sq. yds. is preeminently suitable for the requirements of the said society. The land is leased by Government and the period of the lease is due to expire on 31st March 1930. It is a piece which is practically detached from the piece of Government land, on the south of the society's buildings, and therefore, while the grant of that land will suit the requirements and the purpose of the society, it is not at all likely to interfere with any project which Government may have in view in connection with their land on the south. Besides, the Government land on the south is extensive enough for any project they may have in contemplation and therefore the grant of the detached plot of S. No. 4663 is also not likely to cause Government any appreciable inconvenience, while compared with that the advantage to the society if the plot is granted would be iinmensely greater. 18. If that plot were granted to the society, the society proposes to extend its buildings therein so as to locate a part of its library with a hallon the site of the present S. Nos. 4724 to 4728 for scholars and re-search students to work quietly. The society also intends to extend the present public hall on the first floor over the said site of S. Nos. 4724 to 4728 and a terrace on the building to be put in plot No. 4663 which it seeks from Government. This terrace will be opening in the hall on the 1st floor thereby allowing scope for the extension of the Premabhai hall if necessary.

Page #246
211 19. Just opposite this land of S. No. 4663 is situate the old palace of Azam Khan where the head Post Office is at present located. Government are shortly going to remove the Post Office from that place and have also decided to hand over the building to the custody of the Ahmedabad Municipality for its Archaelogical museum. Government have also further promised to supply exhibits for the museum likely to encourage research in Gujarat. The location of society's Library and accomodation for scholars there on the plot in question will be very convenient and conducive to the study of the Archaology as well as Re-search work in Gujarat. A plan showing roughly the general nature of the buildings that the society will put up in case the land is granted is submitted herewith. The accompanying gives only the out-lines. I have no hesitation in stating with certainty that any structure that the society will put in the said land will be such as will maintain the balance of appearance of the site as a whole as well as a suitable match to the old palace opposite. 20. It is estimated that for all the extensions, additions and alterations the society will have to spend about Rs. 50,000/- exclusive of the cost of the land. A copy of the latest report of the Society is submitted herewith, from which it will appear that the Society has got sufficient funds of its own for the purpose. It has got an yearly income of about Rs. 15000/- and it can also raise funds by donations or even if need be, by debentures. The said copy will also give the details as regards the various private funds and the other activities shortly detailed above.

Page #247
212 21. The management of the Society vests in a Managing Body of 20 members elected annually by the Society in their General Meeting. The present membership of the Society consists in all of 679. members of whom 13 are Europeans, about 17 are ruling Princes and Thakores, about 320 are female members and the rest represent gentlemen from all parts of Gujarat. H. H. Sir Sayajirao Gaekwad Maharaja of Baroda is the patron of the Society. In addition to these there are 552 libraries registered as members. A detailed list of the members of the Managing Committee and other members as well as registered libraries will be found in the accompanying report (p. 1 to 20 ). 22. It will be seen from the rules of the Society a copy whereof is appended hereto that the funds of the Society are required to be invested in the Imperial Bank or Postal Savings Bank. It is an uniform practice to invest the Society's funds in securities authorised by the Trust Act. 23. In view therefore of the foregoing circumstances viz:-- (a) That, the Society is a public institution of long standing carrying on the promotion and spread of knowledge and education. (b) That, it badly requires the land of S. No. 4663. for its legitimate extensions as well as to increase its usefulness and service to the public. (c) That, if the land is granted either free or on nominal rent the Society is and will be able to raise the necessary funds for the building. That, Government have always in the past recognised the Society and its objects as a fit (d)

Page #248
213 subject of grant of lands free or on nominal rentals. (e) That, the municipality has also similarly recognised the Society and its objects. (f) That the absence of the grant of the land to the Society will inconvenience it much more than the use to which Government can put the land for any purposes in any of their projects. (g) That, the constitution, standing and the history of the Society are a sufficient guarantee that the land if granted will be put to the best use in the interest of the public. (h) That, the situation of the land being very near the proposed Archecological museum, the library and study for re-search work located on this land will further stimulate interest in Archaeology in Gujarat. 25. The Managing Committee of the Society earnestly hope and urge that Government will be pleased to consider the claims of the society and grant to it the said land admeasuring about 300 sq. yds. of S. No. 4663 on the expiry of its present lease on 31st March 1930. I shall be glad to supply any further details or information in case any are deemed necessary and are required. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant, K. H. Dhruva. President.

prakaraNa 24 sAhityanI abhivRddhi " Written words contain all the letters and are used by all the writers; and in this general sense literature is the whole mind-life of the successive generations of men, most energetic, perhaps, when it springs from ideas bandied to and fro among contemporeries, but in the retrospect presenting peaks which dominate the whole vista down the life of the ages, high enough to be always visible, powerful enough to be always impressive. There is no kind of mental energy which it includes. It is science and it is art. It is learning and poetry. It is religion, philosophy, history, politics, morality, physics, and all the written arts. It is mankind conscious of itsalf in every way-" the whole of man's intellectual life"-and we cannot think away one of the party without altering the whole." The Making of Literature | R. A.

pariziSTa 9 No. 82 of 1912, AHMEDABAD, OFFICE OF THE GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, Fromn, The Honorary Secretary, GUJARAT VERNACULAR SOCIETY, AHMEDABAD. To, KHAN BAHADUR ADERJI M. MASANI; M. A., B. SC. Director of Public Instruction, BARODA STATE, BARODA. Sir, In reply to your letter No. 267 of 1912-13 dated 24th October 1912, I have the honour to inform you that the Society has not framed any special and permanent rules for the award of prizes for the writing of books by translations or otherwise, The procedure is vague in that a Sub-Committee of the Managing Committee called the BookCommittee sends up proposals for getting good and useful books prepared as translations, abridgements, adaptations or original compositions and the Managing Committee then decides upon the books to be: written; and thereupon applications are invited by advertisement from persons prepared to write such books. Sometimes the Managing Committee without.

263 any advertisement, selects men of proved merit and entrusts the compilation of certain books to them. And, sometimes, intending authors communicate to the Managing Committee their proposals for writing particular books and the work is entrusted to them if the managing Committee approves of the proposal. The remuneration to be paid to each writer of these books mostly fixed after considering the nature and scope of the work and the labour involved in the preparation of the book, more remuneration being paid for original work than for translation. The Society undertakes printing and publishing of these books, reserving to itself the copy right, the writer being entitled to the honorarium only. In the beginning of every year book published by the Society in the previous year (not exceeding the price of rupee one each) are presented to lifemembers and registered libraries of the Society and through them, they reach a large circle of readers. I have honour, Sd/- R. M. N. Hon. Secretary.
