USECANDHINANE NREDPROPAEANDA Bolshevists Try to Convince Masses They Stand for Doc- trines of Indian Leader. Following is the second article by Dr. Sten Konow dealing with the wn- rest in India and the activity there of the Russian communist interna- tionale. BY DR. STEN KONOW.

If It proves possible vince the ma. in India that such is the case, the veneration which the Indian people bestow on the Mahatma will make it possible for the bolshe- vike to pose as true friends of Indla. In the course of the last year, more- over, we have read more than once about prominent Indians who have " declared themselves to be in favor of the bolshevist idea. Their pronounce- ments sometimes have been rather vague, and it has been impossible to avold the impression that their con- ception of bolshevism was not ex- actly the same as that of the Russfan Commu; heless it seems certain t bolshevism as a catch word has exercised a certain influ- ence on Indlan minds. Red Party in India. We can ses also that such self- styled bolsheviks have sought con- nection with the Russlan third inter- nationale. Indla has had its repre- sentatives at the great gatherings of Communists, and this year a lawsuit before the Indlan courts has brought to light certain facts which seem to point to an organization of the prop- aganda in Indla under Russian leadership. A certaln Mr. Roy, who lives in Europe, sometimes in Russia, sometimes in Germany, has sent in- structions home to friends and fellow workers about the proper steps to be taken in order to promote the cause of communism In Indla. There was to have been a secret Communist party that would have worked outwardly with constitutional methods, but in reality would have aimed at over- throwing the existing society and bringing about the golden age of which bolshevism dreams. The cor- respondence, to some extent at least, was Intercepted- by government agents, and several of the persons implicated have been prosecuted and sentenced. The chief impression of the pro- ceedings, however, is that we have not before us a widespread and dan- gerous movement, with clear and well defined alms. Mr. Roy does not seem to have any qualification for becoming a real leader of men. To him communism, like the blessed word of Mesopotamia, is a somewhat vague and mystic idea, which fills him with a sacred thrill, but at the same time he is evidently carried away by a nalve feeling of his own importance as an influential co- worker for the advancement of the hazy Ideals that have taken his fancy and stirred his intellect. Some p. sons think ‘it would have been wiser to leave him and his theorizing friends alone than to give to their undertaling the publicity which is a necessary consequencc of a regular lawsuit. onvinced that y and is working Source of Anarchy. On the whole, it would scem that we have not sufficient reason for assum- ing that to any considerable extent the anarchist movement in Bengal is due to the influence of bolshevist Rus- " sia. Anarchism had made itself felt in India, notably in Bengal, long be- me into power blous times of t agitation, when I lived in most 20 years ago, several pts were made on_the lives of Englishmen by young Indians, who had eagerly studled the writings of Huropean revolutionarles, and who belleved that their methods were the surest means of freeing their coun- try of forelgn domination and restor- ing thelr motherland to its old glory.

In the years 1912 and 1917 there was a noticedble recrudescence of revolu- tionary crime in Bengal, and again the government resorted to repres- slon.

The hope has not been realized. The old associations have been reorgan- {zed under the cloak of constitution- alism, but secretly working for the old aims. In 1923 revolutionary crime again came to the foreground, with mur- and looting and terror and all ell known expedients. Now the ernment has again decided to re- sort to operation. In such circumstances it seems that the recrudescence of the movement has little or nothing to do with Rus- sian bolshevism. We shall, however. have to examine whether the special methods of Soviet propaganda in Asia cannot have added strength to the d I shall try to do so In a later article, (Copyright, 1925, by Chicago Daily News Co.)

These little ollve-colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't Injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel som times plays havoc with the gums. So strong liquids. It is best not to tal calomel.

Wheeler Says Capital Needs Only Order to Go Ahead With Sehedule; “Washington has all the necessary plans for its development, and it only necessary that the plans be car- ried out in order to make Washington a beautiful city,” declared Assistant Engineer Commissioner Wheeler, an address before the Soroptomist STAR, Club, at a luncheon in the La Fayette Hotel yesterday. Referring to the McMillan park de- velopment plan and the highway de- velopment and other general plans for this clty's development, Maj. Wheeler declared one could compare the present situation in Washington with a regiment of men all ready to go ahead, but lacking the essential order to march. Praising the zoning system, the speaker sald that “it is the practical civic application of the' golden rule. The strength of zoning in Washing- ton today is due to popular approval.” He intimated that zoning helped to stabllize the value of property, say- ing that “bankers will loan money more readily on property whero there are zoning restrictions than they will is in WASHINGTON, D. C, where there are no zoning restric- tions.” e He spoke also of the importance of obtalning better architectural de- signs for homes here. The only way to do 5o, he sald, is to educate the public so that it will demand better architecture. Maj. Wheeler was introduced by Mrs. Ethel Ward, chairman of the club's civic committee, and who was in_charge of the day's program. Besides the speaking, the program included singing by the members of the club, led by Miss Agnes Winn, with Miss Gene Bearmore at the plano. Mrs. Ethel K. Pollard, president of the club, announced the appolntment of Dr. E. C. Folkmar as chairman of a committee on constitution and by- THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 35, 1925. RADIO BOASTER JAILED.
