LONDON, December 12

In his speech to the Indian Empire Society, in which he protested against wlmt he termed an unwarrantable change in the estimates of the facts of the Indian problem, which, he declared, had not changed, Air Winston Churchill stated that the truth was that Gandhism would, sooner or later, have to be grappled with, and finally crushed. It was no use trying to satisfy a tiger by feeding him with cat’s meat. The extremists, he said, were the dominant force. Among the political losses which he pictured was an early date when the whites would remain in Tndia only on sufferance, and debts and obligations would he repudiated. He said an army of white Janissaries, officered, if necessary, from Germany, would he hired to secure the armed ascendancy of the Hindus. He added that the loss of Tndia would oonsummate the downfall of the British Empire.
