Any breaking out or skin irritation

quickest by applying Mentho- Sulphur,

of its germ destroying properties,
nothing has ever been found to take
the place of this sulphur preparation

GANDHI STILL
HOLDS GRIP AS
INDIA DICTATOR

London, Jan. 2-(By A. P)-That
Mohandis Karamchand Gandhi re-
mains the dictator of midas nation
al aspirations and that his NON
cooperative" and "non-violence" pro-
gram will be carried out during the
ensuing year. despite his failure to
obtain nome rule, is the outstanding
developments of the all-India con-
gress. which closed its sessions at
Ahmedabad December 90, according
to official quarters here where the
reports Of the congress and its gen.
eral effect on Inda's millions are
being estimated
1t is stated that Ghandi, having
remained consistent to his policy,
has defeated the extremists of the
left, typified by the Ali brothers,
and that hefalso has been victorious
over the right wing element. which
advocated entering the local coun-
ellis and furthering the nationalist
aims by constitutional methods, a
movement which had been gathering
force, particularly in Madras.
Besides Gandhis dictatorship, new
aspects of the congress, were resolu-
tons passed to concentrate on civil
disobedience" and an attempt to de-
fine the meaning of 'swaraj." OIL
Gals here claim that both resolu-
tions are confusing. The former
seems to he the carrying out of eX-
periments OF non-payment of taxes
and volunteering. as was advocated
at LAST years congress in Delhi,
.,.l,i ~ &c 20 1n
Gandhi's answer to the charges OF
his critics that his program is en-
tirely negative.
Official circles here interpret the
home rule definition as an expression
of desire for India to remain with
in the British empire, if the British
obey the all-India congress. Other
wise n demand for independence is
TO be made. The officials point out
that the question of an alternative
government in India remains unan-
Swcred.
The resolutions concerning "Swa-
raj" is as follows:
"As doubts have been expressed
as to the precise meaning of the
term 'swaraj,' the congress declares
that in The event of the British peo-
pie making common cause with the
people Of India in securing redress
of the Punjab and Khalifat wrongs.
it does not wish to declare complete
independence, but if the British gov
eminent remains hostile the con-
gress will strive to oppose all con-
nectiOn with the English and will
declare complete independence"
1t was asserted today by officials
closely connected with the India of
flee that they deprecated state
ments made by Indian propa gan
dists" in America concerning events
in India. 1t was impossible. they
declared, to send code MESA ges. such
as that made public in Washing
ton. from India. The story of the
declaration of an Indian republic,
was based on the opening address at
q MoSlem conference in session at
Ahmedab2d. where the advocates of
violence voiced a program which
the all-India congress rejected.

he expressed the belief that the old
building would do for the present
without any outlay for a new struc-
ture just now.
Eighty-fiVc per cent. OF the pupils
in the Auburn schools are below the
high school grades. he declared. and
that more room is needed for this
class of pupils. many of whom never
will go any farther with their educa-
ton. He spoke of the urgent needs of
improved school facilities at East Au-
burn and said that one-third of the
bonded Indebtedness in the city was
occasioncd for educational work, and

school building was a foregone conciu-
sion.
Mr.. Cummings. in his inaugural. said
that $1,000 had been added to the
sinking fund; that S34. geo of the bond
ed Indebtedness of the city had been
cancelled: that $4,000 more of this
indebtedness will be cancelled today,
very materially reducing the interest
charges: and that after paying these
sums $50, 600 will be left in the sinking
fund to retire obligations maturing
later.
He spoke of expensive requirements
that will necessitate bond issues to
take care of the sewers and water.
He referred to the $50 to 800 miles of
highway which must be taken care of.
and expressed his approval CT good
Maine highways and sufficient high
way patron. He favored the extern
sion of the lighting system in accord
