eve want peace with honor,
and the substance and not the
shadow of independence"
Now Uncomfortable

dian Nationalist movement was no
longer controllable by a few front
rank leaders" He added:
"Tt has become broadbased,
and the large number Of local
leaders thrown into prison alone
are able to deliver the goods"
He urged continuance of civil
disobedience pending discussion Of
Prime Minister j. Ramsay Mac
Donald's statement by the All-In-
dia Congress, meeting shortly at
Allahabad. He referred to the Pre-
mier's declaration at the close of
the round table conference in Lon
don, when he said "The future of
India is now in the hands of the
Indians"

pended. Indians have a right
to manufacture salt, to persuade
addicts to abstain from the
drink and drug evils, to boycott
foreign cloth and picket shops"
The Mahatma urged Lord Irwin,
retiring British Viceroy in India,
to intercede on behalf of the Ma
tionalists and obtain abrogation
of Britain's Oppressive policy"

BERLIN, Jan. ~ (1N.S.)'-haIe
and hearty on his seVenty-second
birthday anniversary and still as
closely astride Of important world
events as in the days when he was
emperor of Germany, William
Hohenzollern II today gathered
his immediate family and few
close friends about him at Doom,
Holland, and quietly observed the
natal milestone.
Nation OVerlOOks Date
Germany, with minor excep-
tions, overlooked the calendar
mark that once signified a day OF
national celebration. -,
Contrary to the pomp and mill
tary that gloried the previous an
niversary, the ex-Kaiser this year
preferred to pass the occasion in
the simple manner Of the Dutch
countryside. TWO of his sons were
absent from the family circle, how
ever. Prince Oscar is recuperat-
ing in Germany from an appendl,,
citis operation, while Prince Eltel
Friedrich was prevented from
making the journey to Doom by a
slight attack Of grippe.
The faint reminder OF glamor'
GUS military days will come later
in the day, when a few Dutch
notables and several leading Ger;
man monarchists gather about
the luncheon and dinner table
with the deposed war lord. This
morning the entire household
from the eX-kaiser down to the
charwoman attended divine ser
vices.
Denies BueIOw Charges
The former emperor's seventy,
second birthday anniversary CO
incides with the beginning Of an
elaborate rehabilitation cam
paign" partly directed by him
and propelled by eX-kaiserists for
the purpose Of counteracting the
allegedly unfavorable impression
created by the recently published
memoirs of the late chancellor
Prince Won Buelow.
In these "reminiscences, Won
Buelow held William II solely
responsible for certain political
actions which caused worldwide
sensations. These were the fam
Gus daily telegraph interview, the
Kruger telegram and the kaiSer's
visit to Tangier. All three
charges have already been re,
pudiated by the deposed ruler
in an indirect interview primed
in a Munich paper.
Story Is Denied
The former Kaiser maintains,
according to this article, that he
never spoke to a Daily Telegraph
representative. After he left
England, when he visited in the
summer of 1908, some OF his
English friends organized num-
ber of his observations on the
political affairs of the time ana
urged him to allow them to pub
lish the same as an interview in
The Daily Telegraph. The Kai-
ser yielded, provided the German
foreign office and the chancellor
approved.
Sent to Berlin
The manuscript was sent to the
foreign office at Berlin and was
forwarded to Norbeney where
Chancellor Won Buelow was spend
ing a vacation. According to
Herr Trefz, Prince Won BueloW
and the foreign office therefore
were responsible for the harm
dcne, since they saw and ap-
proved the interview"
The former Kaiser also claims
that he signed the famous Krueg-
er telegram only under urgent
pressure from the foreign office
