Dan River Mills Board Chairman William J. Erwin told the Wednesday Club that solutions to India's staggering problems must come from within the country. He warned outside aid may only relieve crises without addressing root causes such as poverty, illiteracy, caste, and religious superstition. He noted India’s climate, huge language diversity, high illiteracy, and a weakly mechanized textile sector as obstacles, and contrasted luxury with extensive poverty witnessed in New Delhi and Calcutta.
