OUTCAST GLASS OF INDIA SEES BRIGHTER DATS Untouchables Join Hands With Princes Fighting for Home Rule. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Srripps-ffoward Foreign Fditor WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—India's 15,000,000 pariahs and other "un■ouchables.” the people whom God lorgot and whose very shadow was . •deemed rank poison to their Hindu | betters, are getting a break at last. • The desire for independence from 'Britain is what Is working this modem miracle. In their fight lor •.self-rule, princes and pariahs have literally Joined hands. What the •great Gods Siva and Buddha failed to accomplish, a common patriotism, it seems, is bringing about. To the everlasting amazement of •Premier MacDanold and the British •delegates' at the all-India conference in London, they listened to the story of how Hindu and Moslem noblemen sat in a room, and had actually eaten with an “uni touchable.” Delegates Ait Equal ; Sitting as absolute equals, the British were told. Bhimrae Ambedjkar, a "scavenger” and member of ’the outcast class, and the Hindu •and Moslem delegates had planned :the future of a free India together.! .. Afterward, before a packed room ;m St. James palace, the "scaven- j ger” had told of the demands which • he. as representative of a despised | ? class, had put forward for their bet- j terment. ; “And what have the high-caste; delegates here to say of these de-1 rnands?” a British delegate casually | inquired. One of the Brahmins arose. “I will answer that question,” he said. “We not, only approve of the untouchables’ demands, but we have ‘already granted them.” • The effect of the announcement Iwas like a bombshell. The British have said self-government was im•possible in India because the country was divided against itself, because Mohammedans objected to :being ruled by Hindus and the out'casts objected to them all. Low Caste Is Unclean Now, it, appears, not only have the Iwo great upper classes got together j on home rule, but these have agreed: to remove the curse from the despised ‘‘untouchables’’ and give them •full representation in government. , The “untouchables are the earth’s j ’most, pitiful species. Cattle are bet!ter off. by far. The cow, in India, is sacred, and is shown consideration, but the “untouchables” arc so much vermin. In some parts of India they must off at least sixty-four feet When Hindus approach, and not “ long since they had to wear a bell to .warn that, pollution in human form was approaching. To throw their shadow across the person of a Hindu might cause the poor outcast, to be beaten to death. He may not draw water from public :: wells, nor enter temples, serve on ;the police force, or as a soldier. For he must, touch no one lest he render '.them “unclean." Theirs, of course is tho task of doing all the filthy work, jobs which none but they will undertake. Seeking Self-Government All this, of course, is not from .choice. It has been part of the ; Hindu system since time Jmme- j morial. Now a light appears on the hori- ; • zon If India wants home riilc, she i ‘must show that, her 320,000.000 peo"ple want it. not just the Hindus or •the Moslems. And this, it seemed, she could never do. But the unthinkable seems to have happened. It is said that even upper caste Hindu ladies, back in India, are actually cooking and serving food to Gandhi's volunteers i •many of whom arc “untouchables,' -untouchable no longer.

By Scripvs-Haward Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—50 that Thanksgiving may not be a day of starvation for children of men on strike in Danville, President William Green of the American Federation of Labor, today appealed for immediate relief contributions for the strikers. * “There is hunger and suffering among the textile workers and their families at Danville, Va," Green said, “Men, women and children are without food, adequate clothing, shelter. This is the sacrifice they are making for the cause of trade unionism, for decent wages. . . . Shall they be starved into submission?

FIRE STOPPED BY MILK Farmer Saves Home Despite Inability to Get Sufficient Water. By Times Special NOBLESVILLE, Ind.. Nov. 27. Henry Obermyer, a farmer, has proved that milk is efficient in extinguishing fire. Obermyer had just finished milking when he noticed flames curling under the kitchen roof. A pump at a well ran a slow stream and it was evident that the house would burn before he could get an appreciable amount of water. He did not have time to call the firemen from here. He placed a ladder against the house and threw large quantities of milk on the fire. Aside from the fact that it created a strong odor, the milk was as effective as water, and the flames were conquered. Cabbage Donated By Times Special ANDERSON.

Broadway Critics' Praise to Youngest Barrymore By United Press NEW YORK. Nov. 26.—Ethel Barrymore Colt, daughter of Ethel Barrymore, who followed family tradition in choosing acting as a career, made her Broadway debut Tuesday night before an enthusiastic audience and a group of so-called “hard-boiled” dramatic critics. Most of the critics predicted a bright future for her. She appeared with her mother in a short scene in the last act of “Scarlet Sister Mary,” an adaptation of Julia Peterkin's Pulitzer prize novel of the same name. “They might have been Barrymores or they might have been Smiths.” wrote Bums Mantle, dean of New York's drama critics, in the Daily News, “so far as the picture revealed them. But it was an infinitely moving scene to any with an interest in family and play.” Robert Littel of the World observed that “a Barrymore daughter can make her mark in a brief part and win applause for a name that has power to illuminate an uncertain, not to say a pretty bad. play.” “Like her mother, Ethel Barrymore Colt is strikingly beautiful,” wrote J. Brooks Atkinson of the New York Times. “She has an excellent voice and he acts with grace and a disarming touch of modesty. There is every reason to look forward with great pleasure to her career.”

SEER TO CUT PHONE COSTS Installations Too High, Is Commissions’ Views, Effort to cut the cost of telephone installations throughout Indiana to about half of the present $3.50 fee is to be made by the public service commission, it was announced today by Commissioner Frank Singleton, who has presided in several such cost cutting cases already. Latest of these is the voluntarycutting of installation costs this week by the Rochester Telephone Company. In a petition pointing out the trend of the times, the company asked that their installation charge of $3.50 be cut to $2. Similar reductions were made in charges for various phone instrument types and extensions, Singleton said. These reductions also will be sought by the commissioners on a statewide scale, he declared. Not more than 50 cents will be charged for additional installations on the same premises, he anticipates. The entire program will be carried on with the idea that it will not result in any telephone rate increases. It will mean a saving of thousands of dollars to new telephone subscribers and should result in increased revenues in the long run for the telephone company, Singleton pointed out.
