STEWART Central Press Staff Writer Washington. Jan. 7.—**Let success crown Gandhi's fight for India's sep aration from England." said Senator William H. King, “and a fiery or deal’ indeed, to borrow his own ex pmarina, awaks the confiding racial masses which make up the country's population. “However,” added the Utah senator, "he can't succeed, for the simple rea son that the overwhelming majority of the Indian peoples (not people) greatly prefer English rule to the chaos into which they quite generally are aware they would be plunged by realization of the little mahatma's d ream." Now, Senator King by temperament is champion of everything anti-im perialistic. The more forlorn such a movement's hope, the better, ordinarly he likes it. One might naturally have expected to find In him an unqualified Gandhi-ite. His pro-English attitude seemed surprising. The senator smiled, evidently sens ing the necessity to explain himself. Though he didn’t mention it, he Is one of the few men in Washington who Is personally familiar with the Indian problem through direct contact with it in the course of his travels. "India’s weakness," he said, “dates back to the earliest history, when the land's Aryan conquerors established the caste system to preserve the pur ity o ftheir own blood' from mixture with the conquered Dravldians, who thus became the despised untouch ables—today 60,000,000 or 60,000.000 of them." But Gandhi, a representative of the higher order, has broken through the caste law and does associate with the untouchables. “Even." answered the senator, “if Gandhi in reality is thoroughly sin cere—which-perhaps is a trifle doubt ful; be appears to be In most respects an exceedingly orthodox Hindu— the example of no single Individual, no matter bow influential, can destroy a pbHesophy so ingrained by centuries of lmplict acceptance and observance. “Not satisfied with this division be tween themselves ,as superior beings, and the groundling untouchables, the Aryan intruders next step was to sub divide their own group into additional castes. “It is a stratification which unes capably blocks all progress .every ten dency In the- dirfccjUftiLaf democracy. “And it is rooted in the ages—so cially, religiously, governmentally." "It is all very well." observed the Salt Lake City lawmaker, "to speak of a free India, but the Brahmins' idea of a free India is an India under Brahmin domination. "The untouchables may enter Into Gandhi's calculations, but not into the average Brahmin’s. “And .besides, there are the Mos lems—6o,GOO,<Xo to 80,000,000 in num ber—the most dynamic, energetic of the country’s human elements -and literally at daggers' points with the Hindus. Each vastly prefers the Eng lish to the other.” "Nor Is that all,” continued the sen ator. FThere likewise are the Burncse, on the border, in the direction of Siam and China—principally Buddhists— -15,000,000 to 30,000,000 of them. Under no circumstances will they consider federation with the rest of India ex cept upon guarantees of decidedly ful ler self-government than the Hindus are willing to accord to them. “Fin&Hy there are the semi-indepen dent states .each under its own rajah COLDS THAT DEVELOP INTO PNEUMONIA Persistcm coughs and colds lead to Serious trouble. lou can stop tliem now irith Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take.

About a week 'aeforr- Cinemas fif | teen barrels with attractive posters were placed in various grocery stores to receive donations from citizens. The merchants offered their coopera tion and the public responded gen erously so that most of the barrels were filled. In addition to the barrels several members of the auxiliary, members of the freshman class at the Hender son high school. Boy Scouts of Troop 30 and a Sunday school class of the First Methodist church were respon sible for gifts, toys and delivery of boxes to families of veterans. The total value of these baskets and gifts distributed to twenty families, according to the report was about 1100. The baskets were gratefully re ceived and Santa Claus was carried to ta large number who otherwise would have missed his visit. The Auxiliary today expressed ap preciation to the American Legion, merchants and friends, who helped them in their efforts to give relief. The Child Welfare chairman, Mrs. H. A. Newell and local Rehabilitation chairman, Mrs. J. W. Jenkins, also expressed thanks to all who aided in the work of relieving distress. Mac Lean Reported Behind Proposal Made by Warren •Continued from ease One.) candidates. For in addition, Mac Lean will get strong support from many large corporations, especially the rail roads, power companies, big timber companies and others who are anxious to have the taxes on property re duced and the burden of school sap port shifted onto business and in dustry through indirect taxation. But the school people evidently have not yet struck at the swallowed the tempting bait which Mac Lean and Congressman Warren are dangling in front of them. For the Constitutional amendment as proposed last week by Congressman Warren would do some thing that the school people do not want—set up a school term supported completely by the State, so that it could not be supplemented In any way by local taxation on property.
