GANDHI ACTIVE
CAMPAIGN OF DEFIANCE PLANNED PROPOSALS TO CONGRESS United P.A. —By Telegraph—Copyright Reed. 9.30 a.m. DELHI, February 14. Gandhi’s plans for opening Congress on an independence campaign, which is being submitted ft) a congress working committee at Sabarmati today, include proposals that Congress should not control or direct a civil disobedience campaign, but should give moral support to a “council of war” to control operations in selected areas. Thus Congress would be divested of the responsibility for outbreaks of violence in such areas. Gandhi favours a campaign of nonpayment of taxes in certain areas, and concerted defiance of the Government’s salt monopoly, the latter to include the production of salt by people wherever there are natural facilities, and the organisation of dock workers at Calcutta and other ports for refusal to handle foreign salt. If Congress does not assent to tile plan, Gandhi will carry out the campaign himself.
