KARACHI, India, April 3.— When Gandhi goes to London to attend the | Second Indian Round Table Conference | the British government will have to meet, several embarrassments in dealing with him. ¥ In the first place, it would appear { that there can be no session of the con- ference on Mondays of each week, since that is the day Gandhi religiousiy ob- | serves his 24-hour period of silence and meditation. | Then provision will have to be made for Gandhi to squat, or “sit on his haunches, on the floor of St. James'| | Palace in his accustomed Hindu fashion. He will undoubtedly bring his beloved | chark, or spinning wheel, tecause he | is at his best as a negotiator and talkeér | when he concentrates his attention on spinning yarn, | Sir Bahadur Sapru, Gandhi's friend and prominent Indian ljberal, has sug- gested that Gandhl discard his gossa- mer loin cloth for pants at the confer- ence, but Gandhi has refused, saying that he could never accustom himself to trousers, a stiff shirt, white collar and tight shoes. olution as to_escaping the From the Front Row Reviews and News of Washington's Theaters.

The best “shot” of the afternoon came, as & matter of fact. when the cameras caught the frafler s°x clinging to the camel's hump as the animal came down to & rather uncomfortable resting posture. For the remainder of an interesting travel afternoon Mr. Holmes roamed through the northern part of Africa, giving his audienc: a nostalgic feel- ing that it must got there soon or bust.

If the camera doesn’t lie, the place is full of tradition which means old and not tho respectable streets—and nice new hotels in which on: can wash off some of the tradition afterward. Looking out of the bed room window at Fez, for instance, one can see mosques and minarets, and hear the chimes ringing out the worship hour to the-faithful, and se> the thousand- and-one turbans bobbing about in the streets, and the ladies whose faces are enigmas bchind the vells which, they have worn for cen- turies—if they are old enough. What seems to be the most re- markeble thing about Africa is that it has picked itself up so nicely in the past few y-ars under the educa- tional prodding of Mother Fmance. Sheiks go by rail now more oft'n than by camel. And they don't re- sent having their towns improved, and French architects showing them how to build buildings that are more Moorish than their own. Progress is in evidence all around. Most pro- nounced is this in such citles as Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakesh and even Constantine—that amazing city which has its perch literally in the clouds.
