Received Friday, 12.45 a.m. NEW DELHI, Jan. 16. Ghandi told young Moslem men at Bhatialpur (Eastern Bengal.) that only after Indian independence had been won could there be any question of granting Pakistan. To reverse the process would be to invite foreign help. He declared that he had • no abjection to the setting up of a separate Moslem State, but if a Moslem State implied freedom to aiake hostile treaties with foreign Powers to the detriment of the jountry, then that could not be anatter for agreement.
