NO REAL DISORDER
BORDERS OF INDIA NAZI REPORTS DENIED (British Official Wirnlpsa.) Reed. 9 a.m. RUGBY, Jan. 6. German “wishful thinking’’ is again displayed in persistent attempts to persuade themselves that the Indian north-west frontier is extremely disturbed and, especially, that Wazaristan is the scene of a serious outbreak. As a matter of fact, says The Times, Wazaristan is less troubled than it was early JJst year, and although there have been some cases of kidnapping, brigandage and sabotage, they have not given the Indian authorities any grounds for anxiety. The agitation of an embroiled section of Afridis with an Afghan fort has been defeated by joint British and Afghan action, and the rest of the frontier is quiet.
