RELIGION BLAMED
FOR H|NDU'S DEATH
Assassination of Swami
Shradenand. Laid to Theo-
logical Differences.

Ry the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 24.--Intense
religious feeling was seen here today
as the probable cause of the assassi-
nation in Delhi, British India, Of the
Swami Shradenand. noted Hindu
leader Cable dispatches said the
Swami was shot by a man named
Abdul Rashid, presumably Moham-
median. The Swami's attendant,
Dharam Singh was severely injured,
but was able to hold the assailant
and turn him over to the police
The shooting occurred when Abdul
Rashid was refused permission to in
terview the Swami, with whom he de-
sired to discuss problems of islamic
theology. When asked to call again
he drew a gun and fred three shots,
killing the Hindu leader instantly.
The Mohammedans and Hindus are
the two chief religious cults of India
and Delhi, since the vanishing Of
Mahatma Ghandi's political co-opera-
ton project, in which he sought to
have the two sects present a common
front to the government, has been
the scene of heated theological and
political discussions.
The chief differences between the
sects, which Abdul Rashid may have
sought to argue with the Swami. are
two in number. The first is that the
Koran contains comma ndment
against idolatry, while idols are a part
of the Hindu religion. The second is
that the Hindus hold the cow to be
sacred animal. while the Moslems
are confirmed beef eaters.
