20 RED PROPAGANDA 1S FELT ININDIA Effect on Moscow Attack on Britain Reflected in | Growing Unrest. !

The famous letter which Zinovicy addressed to the British il Communist party containing ions to work for the violent against t i Indians, it is true, have approv, cessity of taking such steps. After- ward it proved to be not less difficult to obtain the assent of the British secretary of state in the recent labor government. Lord Lytton, however, was able to produce such strong evi- dence that they both yielded and the result was the ordinance of October 25. The history of the promulgation shows that the British authoritles did not act precipitately, but only after a thorough examination of all the facts. took care to point arrest was the result case. Several independent judges hav: examined every individual charze, and only after they have all come to| the conciusion that the person in question active in the an conspiracy has action been ta Reception Unfavorable. The reception of the ordinance in India has not been favorable ome as a rule Indian opinion strongly approves of political crime use of violence in & struggle. But the leaders are of the opl step taken by the gove solutely unwarranted a lated to eliminate crime. The; er remedy nst anarchism s not repression, but the granting of com- plete home rule to the Indian people.

Gandhi and Das in Agreement. The most decided condemnation of the new policy came from the ex- treme svarajists, whose war cry is “Full responsible government -with- out further delay,” and who have recently abandoned the principle of non-co-operation and entered the im- perial and provincial councils with the object of making British admin- istration impossible by means of ob- on and sabot Their leader, able und eloquent Mr. Das, has refused repeatedly to believe in the government" rtion that, only such persons actually taken | t in the t conspira- vy have been arres and that the ordinance t to interfere with the constitutional ment can never proved merely by being repeated, and he calls at- tention to the fact that the persons arested are almost all svarajists. He draws the conclusion that the gov- ernment has intended a blow, not ainst anarchism, but against the| svaraj party. Many Indians are in- clined to agree with him No wonder that other leaders, who for some time showed a tendency to stick to the former war cry of mon- co-operation with kovernment in the counclls, have joined hands with him. Most prominent among them is Mr. Gandhl, the mahatma, as_the Indlans are fond of calling him. He and Das recently arrived at an understanding, and their followers are organizing a united front‘in opposition to the new policy. Other politiclans have fol- lowed the lead of the mahatma. New Strength to Svarajists. Such is the situation today. The government's action, it would seem, has glven a momentary check to the anarchist movement. But, on the other hand, it has given new strength to the svaraj party, and there is nothing that appears to point toward the possibility of a compromise. The government, and notably the gov- ernor of Bengal, have so strongly bound themselyes to the new policy that they canrot well retrace their steps. On the other hand, it is clear- 1y impossible to lay before the public the materials on which they have based their conclusions. Experience has shown that those who give In- formation to the government run the greatest risks, and it is incumbent on the authoritles to protect them. The savarajists, on their side, nat- urally react against all repressive measures, and their position, in mapy 0., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4%, 1925. respects, is the same as when the Rowlatt bills united the different op- position partles in a common ef- fort to secure personal inviolability to the Indians within the law. Some aspects of the present situa- tlon are of general interest and con- cern more than India. 1s there any connection between the anarchist movement in Bengal and Russian bol- shevism? And, if not, how are we to explain the recrudescence of an- archism at the present time, when the introduction of constitutional reforms would seem to pave the way for In- dla toward responsible government? Such questions can be solved only through an analysls of the whole sit- uation In India today. I shall try to give such an analysis in subsequent letters. (Copyright, 1925, by Chicago Daly News Co.)
