THE JAINA GAZETTE example, the Textile Expert will carry out an intensive survey of a typical weaving centre which will serve as a model and the Sericultural Assistant will similarly conduct an intensive survey of one representative centre of sericultural operations. The survey will be carried out district by district and in the light of the experience gained by the survey of a district, the programme of work for the remaining districts will, if necessary, be suitably modified.
If the survey is to be effective, and is to be carried out with due expedition, the close co-operation of Collectors, Revenue Divisional Officers and Tahsildars as well as of non-official gentlemen who are in close touch with the economic life and industrial possibilities of their districts will be essential. The Director of Industries is issuing to Tahsildars, through Collectors of districts, questionnaires with a view to eliciting preliminary information as to the existing local industries and the economic resources of the local area wherein they are carried on and of the people engaged in them. This information will serve as a basis for further detailed enquiries by the Special Officer into each cottage industry and the prospects of potential rural industries.

Only such a one can appreciate the pitiable condition of the Jainas, who are the inheritors of an endlessly rich and complete Philosophy of Thought and Action, and still are backward in everything where concerted and organised activity is necessary All their young men have become old in trying to serve them and open their eyes ; all their workers (Babus, Pandits and Seths)
have cried themselves hoarse. But in vain. The Jainas, Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat
