New Delhi, India, Feb. 26—(7)— Behind the scenes of the present political drama in India is an Eng- ish woman, Miss Madeleine Slade, daughter of Sir Edmund Slade, for many years command- er-in-chief of British naval forces in India. Renouncing all the pleasures, comforts and amenities of every- day existence, Miss Slade has embraced asceticism and the mysteries of Hindu life and has become the ardent disciple of Mahatma Gandhi, who took her to the sacred city of Benares and after immersing her in the holy Ganges river, initiated her into the mysteries of the Hindu reli- gion. She has shaved her head in monastic fashion, given all her money to the poor, goes bere- footed, burned all her European clothes and wears only the cheap- est homespun Hindu garments. She has taken the Hindu name of “Mira Bai.” When asked by her British friends if she is “Miss Slade, she replies: “No. Miss Slade has been dead and buried for five years.” J Miss Slade prays, fasts and in- dulges in various forms of expia- tion, and enters into regular pe- riods of silence and meditation. | Barefoot Daughter of English Baronet One of Gandhi’s Most Ardent Disciples} She has charge of Gandhi's household, prepares all his meals, sees that he is propertly clothed and looks after him with a mother's solicitude for a‘ child. Gandhi's own wife, who is a woman of advanced age, could not show more devotion to the aged leader than Miss Slade, who wor- ships him with the ardor of the most intense religious zealot. Mrs. Gandhi, who has not seen her husband since he entered prison nine months ago, keeps quietly in the background, never appearing among those who share Gandhi's counsels, Miss Slade, who is a woman of marked culture, ability and execu- tive capacity, is much more than a mere servitor or disciple of Gandhi, She takes an active part in the independence movement and in addition to giving Gandhi advice, she attends to his large correspondence. Her father disinherited her for embracing the cause of Indian independence to the detriment of the British empire but the daugh- ter did not care. She devoted herself passionately to a life of service and spartan simplicity, which Gandhi has held up as the only way of salvation for India's toiling millions.
