Point to Libyan Losses

According to reports by on the spot observers, Libyan desert fire losses among both British and American tanks have been high and the reduction of the fire hazard in our tanks appears to be a problem which must still be concentrated upon by American and British engineers. For this reason Russia's KV tank should set a valuable precedent. American correspondents saw one ¢ Job Right With Proper Glasses ofits RV. cigs vo flils, week tor he first time.

BOMBAY, July 8 (U. P.) —India is as interested in repelling any possible Japanese attack as are its allies, Mohandas K. Gandhi has -| revealed in his latest public ut-|-terance. “India begins a new chapter in its national life affecting the fortunes of war with non-violence as its predominant sanction,” the AllIndia Congress leader said. “This non-violence no longer will take the shape of non-cooperation but Indian ambassadors will go to the axis not to beg peace but to show the futility |, of war and achieve an honorable end.” Gandhi agreed last month to the : presence in India of .allied troops as friends and allies but not as masters and conditional upon withdrawal of British political power—. a condition to which the British have not agreed. He said that India would not bear any portion of the expenses of British forces there unless an Indian nationalist government agreed to some sort of taxation for the purpose.
