A FIRM STAND
GOVERNMENT AND GANDHI. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 8.5 p.m.) Calcutta, October 27. The Viceroy replying to a letter from Mantana Ali, a prominent Moslem leader, reiterated the Government’s intention of not releasing Gandhi till he dissociated himself from the civil disobedience movement. It is generally recognized the disobedience is dying under firm handling by the Government. Though the Nationalist Press pretend that there are still 60,000 Congressmen throughout India imprisoned the actual figure is only 19,000 and is rapidly falling. The majority of those released are refraining from returning to their old ways.
