INSTRUMENT OF PEACE
GANDHI ON HIS MISSION. I By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) WARDHA. October 15. Mahatma Gandhi, in a statement on his plan for civil disobedience, says: "Who knows I will not be the instrument for attaining peace not only between Britain and India but also between the warring nations.” He declared his intention of avoiding arrest because it would be his last civil disobedience campaign and it was necessary that he be free to meet contingencies. 5 “Congress cannot wish Britain ill.' he said, “but cannot assist with arms because of the creed of non-violence. I know India is not one-minded and a section will learn the art of war through helping Britain. In view of this, Congress does not desire the establishment of munition factories and barracks to prevent people doing what they wish.”
