NATIVE PICTURES INDIA
AS HUNGRY NATION TODAY
Syud Hossain Speaks at Forum Of
National Popular Govern
ment League.

India was pictured as "a hungry ma
tion today" due to English rule, by
Syud Hossain of India. in an address
this afternoon before the forum of
the National Popular Government
League at the New Ebbitt Hotel.
Mr.. Hossain declared that England
has ruined the prosperity of India and
the happiness of its people, and said
that the money of the country goes
for the maintenance of the vast para
site administration of that enormous
vampire" Mr.. Hossain declared that
the starvation conditions that are
prevalent in Russia now are chronic
in India.
Mr.. Hossian described Mahatma
Gandhi as man who believes that
the use of violence in any form is a
moral sim and told of how Gandhi
launched about a month ago his plan
of boycotting everything English. the
latest step of. which has been to re-
fuse to pay taxes. but to go to jail
instead.
AS to the outcome of the contest,
the speaker gave three alternatives.
First. he said. the provocative now
employed by the British may bring
the temper of the Indian people to
such a boiling point that even the
marvellous influence and calm counsel
of Gandhi may be of no avail and
slaughter follow that will have few
parallels in history"
He may permit the boycott to go
on" Mr.. Hossian stated, as the second
alternative, "in which case he may
bring ruin upon himself and the loss
Of India. which all military authorl.
ties agree is the strategic center Of
the empire in the orient.
He may yield to the people of
India their rights and their country.
Gandhi is the only man in modern
times who has been able to unite the
Rindoo and Moslem communities for
action" continued the speaker.
There is a growing sentiment for a
repablic. In any event, the British
empire and imperialism in India are
dead and the sooner buried the bet
ter for the English people and the
rest of the world" continued Mr..
Hossian

SECRETARY DAVIS HOPES
TO IMPOSE HEAVY FINES

Secretary Davis still is awaiting
ruling from the Department Of
Justice on his recommendation that
the maximum fines be imposed on
steamship companies that have vio-
lated the law regarding passage of
aliens from other countries to the
United States when the quotas under
the per cent immigration law have
been exhausted.
The Labor Secretary said he in
tended. if the ruling of the Depart
ment of Justice was a favorable one,
to push the cases to the limit and to
punish the offenders with the maxi
mum fine under the immigration
laws in order to prevent further
hardship being worked on the aliens
who come to this country and have
to be deported
P. A. s. Franklin president of the
International Mercantile Marine Com
pany. told the House immigra-
ton committee Monday that great
expense was suffered by the COM
panies under present conditions. be-
cause of the requirement that re-
jected immigrants be transported
free to the port of embarkation. The
chief difficulty, Mr.. Franklin said.
was to determine the country of
origin of immigrants, since they were
free to embark at any one of a
number of ports.

Partial Explanation of Arrest in
Wall Street Bomb Plot.

A part of the report from Sylvester
Cosgrove at Warsaw on the arrest of
Wolfe Lindenfeld there in connection
with the Wall street explosion has
been received at the Department of
Justice, Attorney General Daugherty
said late yesterday.
There was, however, some inter-
ruption in the transmission of the
message, Mr.. Daugherty said. SO that
the portions received were very un-
satisfactory and nothing would be
made public until the whole report
had been received.
Director Burns of the bureau of in
vestigation returned to Washington
from New York late yesterday and
Immediately conferred with the At
torney General on the Wall street
bomb case. After the conference Mr..
Daugherty announced that it was not
expected the department would have
anything further to say in connection
with the bomb mystery until later,
when probably the entire Cosgrove
report would be available.

.CH|LE OPENS WAY
FOR ARBITRATION
Advance Made in Effort to
Reach Settlement of
Tacna-Arica Fight.
BY the Associated Press.

SANTIAGO, Chile, December 81
The Chilean note forwarded to Lima
Monday night is interpreted in diplo-
matte and political quarters as Vir-
tually certain to bring reply from
Peru embodying a more specific pro-
posal for arbitration of the dispute
over the provinces of Tacna and
AFRICA than was contained in the
Peruvian answer to Chile's first note.
This will pave the way to further ex-
changes for a settlement Of the long
standing disagreement.
The original note from Chile. which
started the present diplomatic ex-
change. proposed a plebiscite to de-
termine the sovereignty of the prov
inceS.
Feature of Reply.
The declaration that before agree
ing to arbitration-which Chile mas
not rejected-it would be convenient
to know exactly what is the difference
over the plebiscite formalities that
would oblige the two countries to re-
sort to the judgment Of another ma
ton in order to arrive at perfect
understanding" is viewed as the fea-
ture of the Chilean reply.
y ~
of negotiations, Chile has never be-
fore gone quite so far IS this refer
ence TO discussion of possible arbitra- :
ton, having maintained policy of
direct settlement between the two
countries, while Peru held out for ar
bitration.
The newspaper Ell Mercurio. COM
menting on this phase of the Chilean
reply. says that. while Peru speaks
of the convenience of arbitrating the
entire south Pacific problem. our
government observes that the only
point separating US Is the form of
celebrating the plebiscite. declaring
itself ready to submit these diyergen-
cies to arbitration" 1t adds: For
the first time in the lengthy dispute,
arbitral proceedings are presented in
concrete FORM"
COunsels Prudence.
La Nacion counsels the government
to proceed with prudence and to
study carefully the only point in the
controversy which might eventually
be submitted to arbitration adding
that Chile must first know In pre-
else terms just what interests are
considered susceptible of submission
to 80 efficacious an instrument as
international conciliation."

signed in its name in St. German,

TO ORETURN.JOU.S.
Expected to Reveal More De-
3 tails of New York
Bomb Plot.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
WARSAW, December 21.-It was
considered quite possible today that
the necessary procedure to take Wolfe
Lindenfeld, alias William Linde. back
to America soon would be begun. He
was arrested here last week by the
Polish authorities at the request OF
the American department OF justice
in connection with it's investigation of
the Wall street explosion in Septem-
ber. 1920.
Intimation that Lindenfeld would
soon be returned to the United
: States was given by Sylvester Cos
grove, agent of the Department of
Justice. who said he believed the
Polish authorities would not object,
although they had not yet announced
what action would be taken.
Gives Further Information.
Lindenfeld repeatedly begs to be re-
turned to America, according to au-
thorities, making emphatic promises
to tell more of the details he claims
to know concerning the Wall street
disaster. Cosgrove says he believes
Lindenfeld knows still more than he
has related. He said the police were
giving Lindenfeld time to think the
situation over. Stenographers are kept
waiting in the event the prisoner de-
sires to make further statements.
Lindenfeld has given the name Of the
driver of the wagon which is said to
have taken the bomb into the NeW York
financial district. This name, according
to Cosgrove, corresponds with the one
obtained by William J. Burns. chief OF
the bureau of investigation of the De-
partment of Justice. Cosgrove says
Lindenfeld also has named two persons
who he declares manufactured the
| bomb. Lindenfeld's statement. he says.
tells how the wagon driver escaped just
before the explosion occurred and how
other principals in the alleged plot ar
ranged to be far from Wall street on
the day of the explosion.
Suggest Man Has Double.
Jewish newspapers. which are the
only publications in Warsaw that have
paid much attention to the Lindenfeld
case, say Lindenfeld's relatives ad-
vance the theory that the prisoner has
a double who has communist connec-
tions Lindenfeld's relatives are quot
ed as saying that his double has been
travelling under many aliases. that the
doubles real name also is Lindenfeld
and that he has spent much time in
America.
The relatives are reported as claim
ing that the Lindenfeld who is in prison
here has no connection with the alleged
explosion plot According to the Jewish
newspapers, they claim that Lindenfeld,
the prisoner. spent much time last sum-
mer in eastern Ga1icia posing as an
American vice consul and selling coun-
terfeit passports, with counterfeited
American vises. to emigrants.
Lindenfeld's passport. said to have
been procured in New York. gives his
age as thirty three. When he was ar
rested the prisoner told the police he
was thirty-eight years old.
The Polish police profess to doubt the
double theory. but are investigating it
on account of the age and other dis
crepancies in Lindenfeld's statements.
