INDIA 'DOMINION' DOOMED BEFORE IT IS LAUNCHED .Britain’s Formal Promise of Freedom Expected to Be Rejected. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Sertppi-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. The hew, self-governing nation of India officially forecast in London Monday, already is threatened with destruction before it actually is launched. Developments both here and in India indicate the nationalists will hot accept Britain’s formal promise of dominion .- catus, or responsible native government, as satisfactory, and that the revolt will go on. Representatives in America of nationalist India are planning to celebrate next Monday, the first anniversary of their “declaration of independence,’’ with ceremonies here in the national capital, in Philadelphia and elsewhere. Promises Held Vague In Washington there will be a banquet at which Senators Norris of Nebraska, and Wheeler of Montana, and Charles Edward Russell, author, have been announced as speakers. In India, according the late dispatches, the Nationalist congress sharply is critical of Premier McDonald’s speech before the closing session of the London conference. Members said his promises not only were too vague, but that there can be no peace in the country as long as Mahatmi Gandhi and the 50,000 other political prisoners remain bell ind iron bars. “We mean to have our independence. or die,” was the gist of a statement issued by Indian Nationalists here. India Imports Little All of which indicates that instead of bringing peace to a restless and unruly India, the London round-table's decisions may add fuel to the fire. A progressive, modern India would be a boon to a surplus-cursed world. She would become an insatiable consumer of every manner of goods. She now imports approximately only $900,000,000 worth of imports annually, or less than $3 per head. Japan, newdy modernized power of the Orient, has risen in a few years to where her imports amount to sl6 per person. On the same scale India would absorb more than $5,000,000,000 worth annually, or more than the present total exports of Great Britain, or the United States, to all the nations of the world combined.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ROYALISTS OF FRANCE AWAIT TIME TO STRIKE Trained Troops, With Plans Organized, Are Ready to Go Into Action. By United Prett PARIS, Jan. 22. Royalist* of Prance, desiring a king to replace President Gaston Doumergue, are concentrating their forces for a vigorous offensive against the Third Republic, according to high royalist quarters. Paris has been divided into fighting sectors, with royalist troops in each quarter under the command of a trained army officer. Every fighting royalist is assigned to his squad and regiment and at a minute’s notice, can go into action fully equipped. An officer close to the royal family told the United Press there are 20,000 trained royalist soldiers in Paris, grouped by sectors, while there are 40.000 more in the provinces. Officers hold frequent secret meetings to arrange complete co-opera-tion between the troops. Hopes of the royalists are placed in the Duke of Guiese. exiled in Belgium and pretender to the throne since 1926, following the death of the Duke of Orleans. He is the uncrowned head of the

royalists who are anxious to place him upon the throne of the Bourbons, to which family the duke belongs. They hope to accomplish this in 1932. The party expects the 1932 general elections to give a crushing Communist majority, followed bylabor riots, wherein the royalists will intervene. Utilities Commission Opposed KOKOMO, Ind., Jan. 22.—8 y a vote of 9 to 1, the Kokomo city council is on record as favoring any measure which will abolish the Indiana public service commission.

NIGHT COURT TO BE CONTINUED Night Sessions for Another Week, Says Judge. Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker s much discussed night court ’has proved to be a disappointment if results of the first three sessions

represent the effectiveness of the extra court The session Baker had planned for Wednesday night was cancelled when it was learned that three defendants slated for trial were, discharged on blind tiger counts several weeks ago under ex-Judge James A. Collins. They were Stanley Crutcher, John Duvlea and Lee Ensley. Baker announced, however, he would continue to set cases for night trial for at least another week. Monday night, first extra session, resulted in the appearance in court of only one of five persons slated

for trial. That person was discharged. Tuesday, the second e* tra session, no cases were disposed of, Japan has 16 floating canneries for handling crab meat.
