Kurmachand Gandhi, who holds such a sway over a certain section of the Indian people and who has been heading (lie untl government boycotts In an attempt to force homo-rule In India. Is 51 years of age with grtiylng hair, unflinching, truthful eyes and slim eloquent hands, says a correspondent of the Daily Mail. The writer continues: "His voice is low-pitched and monotonous, yet pleas ing, whether In Gujerati or English. "Ho is married and has four sons. Gandhi lives in Ahmedabad, tho big mill center, where he has founded a settlement for the cuture of truth Hi povorty and for handweavlng, and primitive agriculture. "Gandhi Is not, as Is commonly sup posed, a Brahmin of tho priestly casto. He belongs to a Hania, or trading casto family resident in Kathlawar. Ho de scends from politicians. His political mind comes from his father, who was a Dewan, or chief minister, of the state of Porbandar for 25 years. "Gandhi's genius lies In making lost causes live. To his disarming sweet ness of a saint he adds all the arts of the advocate. In South Africa, he matched even General Smuts. They sparred for years over Indian claims without quarrelling. : "It Ganhi has a hobby, It is experi menting in diet. Eighteen months ago ho had reduced his daily food to four ingredients, wheat, vegetables, a lltllo oil, and fruit, and ho became very 111. He now takes goat's milk and salt, but not cows' milk or butter. "He never sues a debtor, never gives evidence against an enemy, always Iravols third-class, tho acme of discom fort in India, and always goes barefoot. He can sleep when he likes and he dis penses with sleep for long periods at will. ' "India's humble masses, saturated with ancient Hindu philosophy, have long Imagined a saviour should unite eartlily practice to divine precept. The key to Ganhi and Gandhl-lsm is wrap ped in his self-revealing sentence:' ;Most religious men I have met are politicians In disguise; I, however, who wear the guise of a politician, am at heart a religious man."
