MISSIONS IN INDIA HELD UNMENACED Gandhi Opposes Only Tac- tics, Declares C. F. An- | drews, Biographer. By Cable to The Star. LONDON, England, April 30.—Legit- | imate Christian missions in India are not menaced by Mahatma Gandhi or the nationalist movement, C. F. An-| drews, famous missionary, biographer of | Gandhl and friend of Sir Rabindranath Tagore, declared today. The mahatma’s rsmarks on have alarmed churchmen, bishop even lh espec! tians, who have invested millions in In- dian colieges, hosp and today corry on a half of all Indian missicnary enterprises. Om:uscd. The bearded English missionary, who, more than any other living Westerner | enjbys Indian frieddship’ and confi- dence, says that Gandhi merely op- | poses the tactics of some missionaries combining proselytism and ice. He objects to compuls struction in schools and terday. tor, according to Mr. Andrews “Voluntary Bible classes and non- compulsory preaching by nurses and evangelists in hospitals are not con- | demnsd by Gandhi, who is not an enemy of missions, as distorted remarks published abroad seem to suggest,” Mr. Andrews said. “Any Christian mission carried on with fairness and sincerity will not be condemned by him. “Resolutions proposed by Gandhi and unanimously adopted at the Karachi Congress last March provide that any new Indian_government shall guarantee | by statute " absolute _religious freedom | and that the state shall favor no par- | ticular religion. Under such & consti- | tution it would be impossible to expel | any missionary. | Equality of Untouchables. “The Karachi resolutions also recog- | nized the equality of the untouchables with every one else in the eyes of the | law and politics, so it is preposterous to suggest that Gandhi would penalize untouchables by withdrawing the Chris- tian missionaries or become the cham- | pion of the high-caste Hindus. “Gandhi, however, warns the Chris- tians against employing unfair methods | of proselytism. Every missionary so- clety working in India should scrupu- lously revise its program, eliminating | everything suggestive of bribery or com- | pulsion to get people to become Chris tians.” Mr. Andrews contemplates anothes ¥isit to the United States in the Au tumn, when he has completed his third | book on Gandhi and a volume on reli- glon. He has just returncd from South | Africa, where he succeeded in blocking | ‘Transvaal legislation segregating In-| dians, which threatened bad biood in | India and other parts of the empire.

There are 22 roles in all three plays, with 10 characters in the first, 12 in the second and 10 in the third.

NEW YORK, April 30.—Talking critically about the President, common practice in Washington, is comparatively safe, but writing critically about the White House housekeeping draws im- mediate fire—from the housekeeper. The magazine Vanity Fair published recently an_article somewhat critical of lack of lavishness in White House entertainment, written by Jefferson Chase. Mrs. Ava Long, housekeeper to the Hoovers, canceled her subscription in | the following manner: “Jefferson Chase should be run out of town for writing such an article nd you are equally responsible for llowing it to be printed. You would be he first to object if your taxes were creased in order to increase the White House appropriation to allow of lavish entertainments.” .
