In Effort 10 Chance
|Hindus' Mentality
BY the Associated Press

CALCUTTA, Mar. 1.-Mohandas
K. Gandhi, political and spiritual
leader Of millions of Indians, said
today his walking tour to preach
a doctrine of nonviolence and COM
munal harmony would be extended
into the predominantly Hindu prov

For the past four months, Gandhi
has been hiking through the Moslem
territory of Eastern Bengal, which,
along with Bihar, was the scene of
bloody clashes between Moslems and
Hindus last fall.
| 5000 Killed in November Riots.
Government authorities estimate
| that during the October communal
riots in Eastern Bengal, where the
population is 80 per cent Moslem,
300 persons, nearly all of them Hin
dus, lost their lives. They also esti-
mate that 5000 Moslems were killed
during the November riots in Bihar
where the Hindus have a majority
of about 86 per cent.
The 77-year-old Mahatma, with
bamboo staff as a walking stick,
has tramped about 125 miles bare
foot over hard-dirt roads, winding
footpaths and shaky bamboo
bridges. He and masses of his fol-
lowers regard the missionary work
he has been doing as his greatest
experiment" in nonviolence. Gandhi
vowed he would achieve his purpose

ligious communities "or leave my

Moslem Premier H. S. Suhrawardy
and other Moslem leaders have not
been enthusiastic about Gandhis

wardy said Gandhi was causing
great discomfort in the minds of
Moslems" and expressed a wish that
the Mahatma's inner voice" might
lead him to Bihar to see for him.
self the communal situation in that
province.
Gandhi was quoted today by his
followers as stating he was going to
Bihar not for relief of the Moslems
there, but to change the Hindu
mentality and instill his doctrine of
nonviolence
In Bengal, he has opposed the
scheme advanced by one group of
Hindus to partition the province
between Hindus and Moslems, say
ing he does not believe in and cam
not condone establishment of a
state religion which would be the
consequence of that plan.
