BRITAIN IS FACING
 SERIOUS PROBLEM
 IN BENGAL REVOLT
HOME RULE AGITATION IN THE COUNTRY OF 3oo,ooo,oOo PEOPLE IS CAUSING GREAT BRITAIN SOME ALARM
POLICE HOLD 100 NATloNALIsTs
Arrests On Charges of Criminal Con- spiracy Shows a Revolution
 Was Contemplated

LONDON, Mar. 4-The arrest Of upwards of 100 extremist National ist leaders in Bengal charged with criminal conspiracy under the new Indian ordinance emphasize the complexity as we'll as the magni- tude of a problem whose solution involves the political, social and economic well-being of 30O,0O0,00O human beings in a country larger than the rest of the European con- tinent with Russia eliminated.
 The Indian question embraces one of those controversies in which the truth probably lies somewhere between the two extremes of oDin- ion which one hears reflected in tine capital of the British Empire. But in no shade of opinion is there dis covered a disposition to minimize the import of what is going on ill the far away dominion.
 Object Is Home Rule.
 In order to understand the dis patches out of India these days, t is we'll to remember that Indian Nationalists, however much they differ, all call themselves "Swara- jists.' The word "Swaraj," literal ly meaning "self-rule," has come to denominate a heterogeneous crowd, including those who still use it in the meaning in which it was first employed by Mahatma Gandhi him. self--the rule of the higher sell over the lower.
 Later "Swaraj' was given a po- litical sense and now for some years has been synonomous with Home Rule'' Its evolution has many points in common with that of Sim Fein in Ireland. The Ben galese Nationalists, then, who just now are feeling the heavy hand Of Lord Readings government, are all Swarajists, or Home Rulers; but they have broken completely with Gandhi, whose policy of non-co operation they declare is wholly in- adequate to realization of Indian aspirations Their leader is c. R. Das.
 The present Government Of In dia Act was passed as traditional measure to continue in force while India sets her house in order as preliminary to the grant of larger powers of self-determination by the Imperial Government All of which is reminiscent of the Home Rule struggle in Ireland and somewhat akin to Americas own problem ill Philippines with the difference that there are some 7,0O0,000 human be- ings in the islands over against 300,- 100000 in India.

ROUSH, ONCE PASSED UP, NOW
 A BRIGHT STAR OF BASEBALL

NEW YORK, Mar. 3.-When they had turned over all the players, goods and chattels of the ill-fated Federal League to the majors a de acde or so ago, it was discovered that one player was left over and un, accounted for. He was Edd Roush of the Newark Club. Nobody want ed him, but Harry F. Sinclair, lead ing financial spirit among the Fed erals, finally sold him to Manager John McGraw Of the Giants for the waiver price, $6,000.
 McGraw traded Roush to Cincin natl and has been regretting it ever since, even going so far as to make several flattering bids for the out fielder who has established himself as one of the best five batters and three greatest felders for the past nine years. His nine-year batting average is .344 He led the National League batsmen in 1917 and 1919 He holds a place on most of the all-star aggregations selected these days.
 When ROush went to the Federal League in 1914 from Evansville, H., his right arm went back on him. He at once undertook the apparently impossible task of learning to throw lefthanded, but by persistent effort he has developed that arm until it ranks among the best in the game This is one of the most unusual achievements in the national game $ history.
 For years Roush was one of the most stubborn holdouts in the major leagues, but his differences with the Reds management have been smooth ed over and he is now regularly in the fold by spring.
 Roush was born in Oakland City, Ind, 32 years ago this spring.
