India and Pakistan
Leaders Expressing
Fears of Conflict
By the Associoted Press

NEW DELHI, Sept. q. India and
Pakistan are counting their dead in
communal fighting in the hundreds
of thousands, and responsible lead
ers are openly expressing fear of
war between the new dominions
unless solution can be found soon.
Mohandas K. Ghandi, himself an
outstanding exponent of non-vio-
lence in all India, spoke out last
night of the danger of war. He
said that if Moslem Pakistan per
sisted in proved error" in her re-
lations with Hindu India and at
tempted to minimize today's condi-
tions, the alternative was war.
Challenge to State Seen.
The Mahatma was giving voice to
what was being said by many others
both in India and Pakistan. Each
dominion is firmly convinced that
the slaughter perpetrated by its
own people is in retaliation for
what is being done on the other side
of the border.
Sardar Vallabhai Patel, India's
home minister, declared in a speech
to representatives of the Punjai
states that mop attacks on Hindu
and Sikh refugees fleeing in great
droveS from Pakistan constituted "a
direct challenge to the authority of
our state, and no government will
tolerate this for a moment"
Mr.. Patel told the princes of the
Eastern Punjab states, most of them
Sikhs, that the evacuation of refu-
gees even under peaceful conditions
was a tremendous job, and that it
must proceed unhampered by at
tacks and as speedily as possible,
"or we shall be faced with conse-
quences too terrible to contemplate. /"
Columns Stream Over Borders.
There are millions of such ,lome-
less wanderers, forced to flee for
their lives. On both sides of the
border they huddle miserably in
camps awaiting protected transport
which will offer some assurance of
safe passage of Hindus and Sikhs
from Pakistan territory and of Mos
lens from India.
Columns of these refugees, leaving
behind them all the possessions they
cannot carry, are streaming across
borders.
Cholera has broken out in some
refugee camps, although it has off,
clally been reported brought under
control. Camp officials. pointing to
the conditions of filth and malnutri-
tion, in which tens Of thousands live
while making their marches, says it
is miracle there has been no
frightful pestilence and that the
danger OF such an outbreak is still
acute.
