Amrita's Correspondence with The Mother

25 February 1932

Mother,

Montbrun asked me why we were engaging a new set of workers. I told him that the old set did not agree to the new conditions laid down by us. I added that the new régime with its new conditions promised us better prospects in the matter of efficiency and better work.

It is well understood, I believe, that new people are taken only if the old set refuses to work under the new conditions. For nothing proves that the new set will be more satisfactory.
