“ So great is American ignorance about Asia, so biased is most of the information that we do get, and so tremendously important for us and for our children is it that we should know the truth about the oldest civilizations still existing upon the earth, that I welcome any magazine which sheds light upon conditions in China or India. ”

“ If the world is to be rid of Imperialism and militarism, the British Imperialist policy should be exposed with increasing vigilance everywhere. The American public is most in need of education in the fact that British domination of India is most unjustified and cruel. The facts you give in Young India tell this story in a manner at once simple and forcible. ”

“ Young India is a paper which is indispensable to those who would keep in touch with events in India and follow the progress of the great movement there for national self-dependence. The magazine is ably edited, has articles each month of importance, and reports accurately and fully all items of important news. All friends of India and her cause should help to sustain this admirable publication. ”

“ It seems to us a model of a magazine that is frankly propagandist.
Francis Hackett, Literary Editor, The New Republic:
With simple directness Young India is putting before Americans the irresistible case for Indian self-determination. It is up-hill work because there is no popular association between the United States and India, but it is the kind of work which every western democrat should want to see assisted. Unless India comes into the world commonwealth as a self-determined nation, regardless of the special interests of the British Empire, the future of the world is poisoned. ”

“ The people of America greatly need enlightenment regarding the people of India and their economic and social condition. Your magazine, Young India, is doing a good service in giving this information, and should have great success in bringing about a better understanding between the East and the West. ”
