-By Telegraph — Copyright.)
LONDON, Wednesday. ' "The India Round Table Conference is bound to fail. Mr. Ramsay MacDonald's only alternatives are to grant th,e India Congress a full programme or return to a military autocracy," Mr. Gandhi told a "Star" representative. Mr. Gandhi added: "If India's demands are not granted civil disobedience will break out again. British goods will be completely boycotted and maufactures not made in India will be imported from America, even if they are inferior to the English. Beet sugar will be obtained from Germany rather than Mauritius." He added he was 'sure he could keep the new civil disobedience movement non-violent. The British knew the conference would fail when they called it because it was packed with delegates who were bound to quarrel.
