PATEL RELEASED.
Indian Congress Leader’s Promise. * WILL KEEP THE PEACE. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received March 5, 8.30 a.m.) DELHI, March 4. V. J. Patel, the veteran ex-Speaker of the Legislative Assembly and exPresident of the Congress, has been released from prison, but under pledge
to abstain from any participation in the disobedience movement. A steady improvement in the sale of British piece goods is reported in all the big centres of India, except Bombay, which is still suffering the after-effects of Congress rule. Inquiries up-country are increasing. Calcutta
and Madras are busier than for many months past. The demand for Manchester goods is welcomed as a sign of the waning influence of the boycotters and the return to confidence consequent upon the official action against picketing.
