"MERE CAMOUFLAGE"
INDIAN REPRESENTATION
LONDON, April 18.
The Indian representation for. the San Francisco Conference as it exists- at present is * mere camouflage, and ought to be dropped, said Mr. Gandhi in. a statement. He added that such representation would be worse than no representation. India should be represented either by an elected representative, or not at all. Propped up against pillows on . a sheet-covered floor, Gandhi received correspondents, but kept silent and did not enlarge on the statement, which a secretary read and handed out. The statement declared that the peace must be neither punitive nor vindictive. "Germany and Japan should not be humiliated. The fruits of peace must be equally shared and the effort made to turn enemies into friends," Gandhi said.
