Hindus
Regard Gandhi as
Holy Man Of India
T,ONDON-Gadhi.

LONDON.-Gdunl.
In every discussion Of the troubles
in India up hobs the name Of the
little man who to millions of Hin
dus is a mahatma-a holy man.
But the British government, while
admitting his simplicity Of life, the
gentleness of his words and the re-
straint of his actions, looks upon
Gandhi as dynamite.
He is the man who at word may
cause India's 350,000,OOO to explode
in disorder and revolution.
Mohandas karamchand Gandht Is
81, with grazing hair, the eyes of
dreamer, the slim hands o. the
orator, the figure of boy.
He was educated as lawyer IN
sio min India and then went to
South Africa, where he became a
thorn in the side of the British by
his championship of Hindu coolies
whom he considered oppressed by
the laws of Natal.
When he returned to India he at
once became a power.
His hold on the masses is due not
only to his eloquence, but to the
manner in which he lives. He
dresses in native homespun. His
feet are always bare. He invariably
own meals. His diet is wheat, vege-
tables, oil, fruit, goats milk and
salt.
Gandhi breaches the doctrine Of
passive resistance; the people are
to have nothing to do with the Brit
ish government nor its works. He
abhors violence Yet it has been
said of him that he incarnates all
the resentment of the East against
the West.
A number of British army officers
are leaving their wives here in Eng
land. And it is not alone the Indian
climate that is inducing this precau-

To GAS BATTLESH|P
FROM AIR To SHOW
PLANE SUPREMACY

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE
army air service is preparing to gas
a battleship.
When the army planes sail over
an obsolete battleship next June to
demonstrate that surface craft is
helpless under a shower of bombs
the air service also intends to show
that battleship can be forced into
virtual submission by the use of
gas.
This was revealed toda yby Briga-
der General William Mitchell, as
sistant director of the air service,
and Colonel A. A. Fries, head of
the chemical warfare section, who
is cooperating with Mitchell in the
proposed gas attack.
The coming test will be the first
in this country to demonstrate the
effectiveness Of gas bombs, as
dropped on battleship by an air
force.
In order that the experiment will
have the greatest practicability,
service men will be placed on the
ship when the gas bombs are drop
ped. Mitchell said today. If the
navy authorities agreed, he will use
said, and the effect of the gas will
be noted. He indicated he would ask
for volunteers.
Astounding Possibilities
The possibilities of gas bombs
ARE so astounding as to make one
vince" Colonel Fries said today:
ANY form of gas" Colonel Fries
said, carrying from the kind that
puts men gently asleep to- the pol
sonouS mustard variety and the tear
gas, can be placed in. explosive
Shells and dropped by airplanes on
an envy fleet below. The gas would
perm cate a battleship, some kinds
continuing their effect for several
days. The crew of an enemy ship,
presumably would don gas masks
and rubber suits but this would
greatly incapacitate them for work
aboard ship and some gases are so
powerful as to defy artificial pro-
lection"
Liquid gas, Colonel Fries, explain
ed, could be showered on battle
fleet by a host of atrplanes so that
it would descend in steady mist.
Progress by the United States in
chemical warfare, Colonel Fries
said, also has reached the point
where floating bombs can be dropped
in the water, creating smoke cloud
both poisonous and obstructive to
ships visibility.
Cooperative ATTacK
Tn actual battle. according to
Colonel Fries, one group of planes
carrying gas bombs could so Grip
pie a surface fleet that a second
air group, armed with explosive
bombs, would find it's task of de-
structfon greatly lessened:
General Mitchell and Colonel Fries
hope to conduct tests along these
lines in conjunction with the coming
sea attack. They recognize the diff
ficulty however, of accomplishing
the men on the ship. -,
The air battle probably will take
place the first week in June. Gen
eral Mitchell plans to employ 100
planes. raining bombs as great as
a ton in weight upon the pattles mp
