AHNIADABAD, India, March 6.-Tht
ultimatum Of Mahatma Gandhi TO thu
British crown, asking for Indian ma
tional Independence, and threatening
in lieu of that q campaign Of intensive
civil disobedience, was made public
here today.
Gandhi, venerable Indian nationalist
after q vehement attack on British
rule in India, which he says "has i'm
poverished the dumb millions" says
con Bonded knees I ask you to ponder
this phenomenon"
The ultimatum is addressed to Vice
roy Lord Irwin, and begins:
MY Dear Friend-Before embarkine
upon civil disobedience and taking
risks which I have dreaded all these
wears I would fain approach you and
find q way out. My personal faith Is
absolutely clear hold British rule to
be a curse, but do not intend to harm
a single Englishman or any Legitimate
interest he may have in India.
Enumerates Circumstances.
The ultimatum then enumerates the
circumstances in which his hope that
a round table conference in Lonoon
would furnish a solution OF the problem
was frustrated. Gandhi declared that
as the nlan for an interview at New
Delhi miscarried there is no option pu.
to carry out the solemn resolutions OF
the national Congress.
THE resolution for independence.
the ultimatum declares, should not
cause alarm If the phrase dominion

British statesmen admitted that Brit

Since that announcement, however
many things have happened which

sponsible British statesmen do not con-
template any alteration Of British policy
that might adversely AFFECT British COM

Impartial scrutiny of Great Britain's
transactions in India. If nothing Il
done to end the process Of exploitation
India must be bled with increasing
speed.
Party Of Violence Gaining.
'The party of violence is gaining
ground and is making itself felt. Hay-
ing an unquestioning imnovable faith
in the eficacy Of non-violence it would
be sinful on my part to wait longer
This non-violence will be expressed
