The Resolution says that on account of the failure of Government to redress these grievances we must have 'Swaraj.' It is important to remember that long before these occurrences Mr. Gandhi had come to the conclusion that we must have Independence. It would accordingly seem dishonest on his part to say that these events led him to the demand for Swaraj or Home Rule. In his scheme of "Home Rule for India" Mr. Gandhi said:-- "Now you will have seen that it is not necessary for us to have as our goal the expulsion of the English. If the English became Indianised we can accommodate them. If they wish to remain in India along with their civilisation, there is no room for them. It lies with us to bring about such a state of things." Then in reply to the question that it is impossible that Englishmen should ever become Indianised, he says:-- "To say that is equivalent to saying that the English have no humanity in them. And it is really beside the point whether they become so or not. If we keep our own house in order only those who are fit to live in it will remain. Others will leave of their own accord." It is something that he gives a loophole to the Englishman to remain in India. To the question that there may be chaos and anarchy on account of the Hindu Mahomedan position he states:-- "I would prefer any day anarchy and chaos in India to an armed peace brought about by the bayonet between the Hindus and Musalmans." When it was pointed out to him that the dissensions amongst the Hindus themselves may cause the same result he is not dismayed. He says:-- "We are not to assume that the English have changed the nature of the Pindarries and the Bhils. It is therefore better to suffer the Pindarri peril than that some one else should protect us from it and thus render us effeminate. I should prefer to be killed by the arrow of the Bhil than to seek nominal protection." When it was pointed out to him that for Home Rule at this stage we have not got an army for our own protection he said the other day:-- "I am here to confess that we are fully able to take charge of all military dispositions in the country and that we feel able to deal with all foreign complications." The worst that may happen is he continued that we may be blotted out from the face of the earth for which he was prepared so long as he can breathe the free atmosphere of India. The following report is interesting; we give it below from the "Daily Express." Q:--Are you anxious to take over the whole control of the army at once or would you make an exception of that object? A:--I think we are entirely ready to take up the whole control of the Army which means practically disbanding three fourths of it. I would keep just enough to police India. Q:--If the army were reduced to that extent, do you not apprehend anything aggressive from the frontier territories? A:--No.
