Inside India

BOMBAY. India. Aug. 18— I’ve'
never been to Babylon (except the
one on Long Island), but, at least.
I have finally seen some hanging
gardens.
I had gathered from my gram
mar school geography that ancient
Babylon had a monopoly on hang
ing gardens. It took a war to
teach me that Bombay has an
equal boast to fame.
If it hadn’t been for the war, 1
might not have been assigned to
India and so would have gone
through life wondering just what
hanging garden* hang from. It
does seem a big price to pay for
such a little hit of knowledge,
because hanging gardens don't
hang from anything.
The hanging gardens of Bombay
are on the top of Malabar Hill,
which is the- snooty section in
habited hy the governor and such
rirh folk as M. A. Jinnah. the
political leader of the Moslems.
They’re called hanging Just be
cause they're up higher than any
thing else In the surrounding
terrain.
VIEW OF BOMBAY
From the hanging gardens,
which are very nice gardens of the
formal, clip[#»d-hedge type, you
get a wonderful view of Bombay.
Far below lies a curving beach.
Beyond the beach is the city itself,
a city that, would be big-town in
anv country.
Leaving the hanging garden?.

they were '‘frightful'' men: that

the whole situation from their
point of view.
