JAIL 1000 IN INDIA
IN NIGHT Of TERROR
Police Check Disorders on
Anniversary OF Gandhi's
Independence Decree.
By the Associated Press.

Hy the Associated Press.
BOMBAY, January 2S-The third
Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi's
proclamation of Indian independence
was over yesterday, but it was marked
by nearly 1000 arrests throughout the
country including MANY women, and
by sentences Of many of the Mahatma S
followers of up to three years at hard
labor for defylng the government 5
ordinances
Last night was night of terror in
the Hindu residential section. Crowds
of irresponsible elements, joining in the
Nationalist movement, burned down the
police shelter and then eXtinguiShed the
city lights to make a more striking
setting for huge bonfres of British
cloth.
Shots and Screams.
The Changing of fire engines mingled
with the crack of police rifles and the
shouts of the crowds.
Sir Percival Philips, American born
correspondent for a British newspaper,
narrowly escaped violence at the hands
of the mob, when he was mistaken for
a police official because he carried a
club for self-protection. He was saved
only by the timely intervention OF Con-
greSs Volunteers, who pleaded with the
rioters to remember GandhiS sacred in
junction against injuring any foreigner.
The window of his automobile was
smashed, but he was unhurt.
While these outbreaks were taxing
place the Mahatma himself sat cross
legged on the stone floor OF his cell In
the Jail at Poona, chatting with MISS
Madeline Slade, his former British So
Ciety girl disciple, who was admitted
to see him, the first visitor he has en-
tertained since he was arrested.
Political Talk Banned.
No political subjects were discussed,
because the prison rules required the
presence of the British jail Superin-
tendent during the interview. The Ma
hatma asked about Mrs. Gandhi, who
also is in jail; his son DaVldas ana
other relatives and friends.
Throughout the country the Ma
tionalists generally observed GandhiS
Injunction to keep the campaign
against the British free from violence.
Several sporadic acts of violence took
place, however, and were charged to
other revolutionary groups.

derailed near Patna after sections Of
the track were removed, but no one was

General Business
Seen Near Bottom

In its weekly summary of the
general business situation, the
Standard Statistics Co., of New
York, says business activity and
earnings have now reached a
point from which, based on any
past experience, a general recov-
cry movement could be inaug-
urated.
1t is held distinctly premature
to expect such a reversal soon,
based on evidence now available,
but it is at least probable that
the deflationary Spasms now be-
ing witnessed in business, as in
the stock market, may slowly
signalize the approach to the
ultimate bottom.

ASKOV PEOPLE
HEAR SOCIALISTS
Duluth Speakers Tell Audience About
Socialism and How It Could Rem.
edy Economic Ills.

Approximately 200 people heard
Sigmand Slonim and the Rev. p. r.
Andersen of Duluth, speak on So
cialism in the Assembly hall in Askov
Friday might. After the speeches,
questions were asked the speakers and
discussion took place at which time
many interesting phases Of the talks
were brought out.
In their pleading for the progress
of socialism the speakers told of pri-
vate ownership leading owners to
power to exploit others. The socialist
party is the first party in many ma
tions said, Mr.. Slonim but in the
United States which is one of four
nations where it has not made much
Roadway, the mentioning of Socialism
is repugnant to many people.
1t was the sentiment expressed by
Mr.. Slonim that if Socialism was in
power there would be no depressions,
no unemployment, no bread lines and
no panics. This would be better
world, said the speaker, because there
would not be that struggle for bread
which is taking the vitality of fellow
men. 1t is good business to many
to see public ownership of roads, air.
light, etc., which is working out SO
we'll, but for other lines of industry
to be publicly owned, that is Bolshe-
vism. Mr.. Slonim said that the sys-
tenn which is developing a few bill
lionaires and driving millions into
pauperism and the farmers from their
homes should be abolished and that
the people should go about getting
Socialism peacefully by using the bal
lot box. The trip to the discovery
of America by Columbus, was taken
as an example to the people to keep
going on and on when the way gets
rough. In doing so they get what is
wanted and they will at last be re-
warded as was Columbus after he
had been entreated many times by
his crew to turn back since no land
could be sighted for so many days.
After the speaking the audience
expressed its desire almost unani-
mously to petition for the entry of
Norman Thomas name on the ballot
in this state so that people who de-
sired could have an opportunity to
vote for him this fall.
