THREATENED BY THE INDIANS. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) LAustraliab and N.Z, Cable Association.) DELHI, December 10. (Received December 17, 11 p.m.J. The Cojnnrittee, which wa§ appointed by the recent Nationalist Congress to report on the feasibility of encouraging Indian and boycotting British Empire goods, has issued a report which says: ‘‘That all British Empire commodities cannot immediately be boycotted. There must be a gradual boycott, excepting articles necessary for health, <|ducation and certain industries.” It is c|f the opinion that a complete boycott of I'hnpire piece goods is feasible, also leather /foods, cycles, motor-cars, provisions, furnitunj, glassware, and cutlery and that the importation of liquors, spirits, tobacco and othjr luxuries be immediately stopped. The Cjornmittee recommends a house to house pippaganda in the villages. The Boycott Committee urges the use of Indian oi* non-British articles in preference to Empire goods.
