ator.
Mrs. Besant said she had received

ope. as to the activities of Gandhi.
Gandhi is getting desperate. and

Besant, land ! must get back to my
people as quickly as possible. They

The Indians, Mrs. Besant said.
want want home rule under the En-
pire, and want to attain their free
dom through pcaceable means ra-
ther than by violence. While this
may not he as far off as some think,
India must be able TO defend her
self against aggression with native
force rather than English before she
is ready to take the reins of 10
minioE Government into her own
hands.
Mrs. Besant expressed great admi-

many of the agitator's disciples re-
turned to the schools, and utilized

Revolution will never gain head

first because the people are unarm-
