URGES Leader Declares Free Trade Has All But Ruined India Peasantry. BOMBAY. July 19.—The propusal Place a tariff upon certain steel and steel products rted into India wfforded Gandhi an opportunity, as he says e ally in his organ, Young India. “of dispelling the illusion that ! am’ inimical to capital. and that I would restroy machine nd its pro- ducts if I hud the power.” “I am a confirmed protectionist,” he added. Free trade may be good for England, who dumps down her manufactures among helpless people and wishes her wants to be supplied trom outside at the cheapest rate. But free trade has ruined Indiu's peasantry, in that it has all but de- stroyed her cottage industry. Moreover, 10 new trade can compete with foreign trade without protection. Natal nurs her sugar industry by both bounty importduty. Germany developed beet sugar by a system of bounties. I would ny day welcome protection for mill dustry, although 1 give and would al- ways give preference to handspun khadder. Indeed, 1 would give protec- tion to all useful industries. Much of my opposition to the government would abate if I found that it was truly so- licitous for India’s economic and moral welfare. Let the government protect the cloth industry to the point of pro- tibition of all foreign cloth, let it pop- ularize the charka by making all its purchases of cloth in khadder, let it abolish without regard to revenue the drink and the drug traffic, and cut down the army expenditure to the ex- tent of the loss of that revenue. When zuch a happy event takes place, my op- position will lose its point. It will pave the way for a real discussion of re forms. To me the two steps will be a striking sign of change of heart, which must precede any honorable settle- ment.” AMERICANS PUT WREATH ON GRAVE OF PENN Poor Richard Club Members Pay Tribute at Burial Place, Forty Miles From London. imy By the Associated Press.
