Another Of Washington's old land

three generations as the church a
corner of 5th and F. streets. has
been sold and the purchaser is soo,
to take possession. Whether the
church building will be torn down
and replaced by modern structur,-
or remodeled for new and differens
uses has not been disclosed. but that
1t will not be continued as a house o
worship is certain.
For the last twenty years the char
acter OF the neighbcrhood in which
this church is located has been chang
Ing. During the period covering the
sixties. the seventies and the eighties
It was residential community OF
the better class. But business has
crept in. family houses have giver
place to boarding houses. and the
congregation Of the church has scat
tered to the four quarters Of the Dis
trict. Other Methodist churches
metropolitan. McKendree. North Capt.
Eol and Waugh. are located so as to
serve those Of this faith in the cen.
tral downtown section of the city.
FOR these reasons the authorities of
the church decided that the sale o.
the present church property and the
investment of the proceeds thereof
to build another church, more beau
tiful and better adapted to modern
church work In residence commun-
!ty' was the wise and proper course.

stern india POLICY
Determined to Put a Stop to
the Civil DisObedience
Campaign.
DENIES GHANDTS PLEA
No Justification for Charge of
Indiscriminatc, Lawless
Repression.
DENIES GHANDFS PLEA

LONDON, Feb. Z ASSOCIATED Press) -
The India office issued an official COM
munication this evening indicating
that 1t was the intention of the Gov
ernment 10 adopt stern measures to
suppress the campaign OF civil diso-
bedience in India. 1t adds that mo
Government could discuss, much less
accept the demands contained in the
recent manifesto of Mahatma X. Gan
dhi. the Indian Nationalist leader.
The civil disobcdience as proposed
in India must be met with the stern
est of severity, the communication de-
clares in refuting certain "misstate-
rents" made by Gandhi in his mani
festo. Referring to Gardhi's demand,
the communication says:
'The alternatives that now confront
the people OF India are such as sophistry
can no longer obscure or disguise. The
issue no longer is between this or that
program. for political advance. but be-
tween lawlessness, with all its dangerous
consequences on the one hand, and on
the other, the maintenance of those
principles which lie at the root of all
civilized government.
Mass civil disobedience is fraught
with such danger TO the state that 1t
must be met with sternness and severity.
The Government entertains no doubt that
in any measures they may have to take
for suppression they can count on the
support and assistance Of all law abid-
ing loyal citizens of His Majesty
The communication declares that some
of the "misstatements" of Gandhi are
so important that tho Government In
India cnnnot allow them to pass un-
challenged. II emphaticaly repudiates
a statement of Ganhdi to the effect
that the Government has embarked on
a policy of lawless repression, and also
a suggestion that the present campaign
OF civil disobedience was forced on the
non-cooperation party In order TO secure
the elementary rights of free association.
free speech and a free press.
It adds that the decision TO adopt civil
disobedience was finally accepted No
yember G, before the recent notifications
relating to either the seditious meetings
act or the criminal law amendment to
the act to which Gandhi 'unquestion-
ably refers" were issued. On the con-
trary, II asserts that the Government
was forced TO take these measures be-
cause of the acts OF professed followers
OF Gandh!.
The Government declares that there
'is no shadow of justification for the
charge that the Governments policy has
been one of indiscriminate lawlessness
and repression" Refutation is made OF
the charge that the Governments recent
measures involved a departure from the
policy that the Government should not
interfere in the activities of the non
cooperators so long as they remained
non-violent in word and deed. The
communication adds that the Govern
ment will enforce the law relating to
offenses against the state as and when
il may think fit. against any persons
committing breaches.

After hurried trip TO the Treasury
Department to-day. where he con-

nounced he had decided that the least
burdensome plan of raising a soldier

Those possible fields Of revenue were
suggested a few days ago to the House

retary OF the Treasury Mellon.
Estimates obtained by Chairman
Fordney to-day show that $500, 900, 900

will yield s5o.O0O.OoO annually. it is
estimated, while the increase of letter
postage will produce $4,000 900. MAX
ing total of $4,000. 900.
These taxes are in my opinion
Chairman Fordney eaid. "the least bur-
densome. They would be limited to
three years and consequently would au-
tomatically become imperative. There
are many ways Of getting the money

Mr.. Fordney was particularly keen
about the tax on transfers Of stocks and
bonds. II would be imposed only on
open market sales and not on transfers
from one pdividual 10 another. Brokers
charge about one-cighth or one-tenth OF
