LONDON", Dee. 29. The popular be
lief In India that.' Mohandas Kara Hi
cham! Gandhi, the nationalist leader
who, is styled "Mahatma" possesses
, supernatural powers is srowinK, writes
the Bombay correspondent ' of the
Westminster Gaett
"Mahatma" means "wonder worker"
and wa the title Riven Gandhi months
ago when there could be found in re
mote Indian villages people who be
lieved that he could stop bullets, re
place severed limbs, and the like.
Gandhi then assured bis followers that
he could not Krk miracles and was
therefore not "Mahatma".
Within the past few weeks, however
'the ignorant villagers' belief in his
power has revived through the appear
ance on the leaves of certain trees of
a cotton like material. They declared
that Wandhl was makinK cotton crow
in this way so as to defeat the object
of the ffovenjuent which is buying up
the entire cotton crop for export. The
non-cooperators have been trying to
persuade all Indians t3 use no cotton
cloth save that of native spiuning and
weaving.
AHMEDAD AD, Ttritish India, Dec. 25
(fly Associated Press.) The resolu

of the Indian nalhnalist congress yes
terday, favoring continuation of Ma
hatma Gandhi's policy of non-violence
includes a c'.ause declaring Gandhi the
sole executive authority of the move
ment, with full powers over the con
gress and its organization. It provides,
however that neither Gandhi nor any
of the leaders be authorized, in case
they are arrested, to conclude peace
with the government without previous
sanction of the congress.

PEKING, Dec. 2S. (Py Asa.x-lated
Press.) A united China under a strong
government, with the incidental solu
tion of the country's financial prob
lems is possible as the result of thr
recent cabinet change. General Chang
Tsao-l.ln declares in an Interview pub
lished here. General Chang who is
military governor of Manchuria, took a
leading part In forming the new gov
ernment under Premier Liang Shin-Yl,
which succeeded that of Chin Yung
eng on December IS. His statement
is challenged by the foreign press in
.eking, which makes charges against
some of the official.
viovernment by an Occidental con
stitution was a failure," i.eno-ral Chang
said, "therefore we propose to assem
ble parliament to frame a new consti
tution suited to the temperament ol
the people. Unity hitherto was Impos
sible because officialdom was corrupt
and lacking the confidence of the
provinces."
The native press says General
Chang Is preparing a campaign for the
re-election next year of President Hsu
Shih Chang with himself as vice presi
dent.
.Newspapers declare that former
president Chun Peng conspired wltb
General Tsao Kun, former military
governor of Chihll. to oust Hsu from
the presidency and that General
Chang was summoned to Peking by
the president and thereupon executed
the coup by which Premier Chin was
unseated".

While, like most other European
countries, Serbia's Imports exceed her

Is believed that by 1912 tho country

At present the nation's trade Is

CO-OPERATION OF
STATE OFFICIALS
' WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. Co-opera
tlon of Rtate law enforcement officials
with those of the federal government
was asked by Attorney uenerai
Daugherty in letters sent yesterday to
the attorney generals of tho states
Such co-operation, it was .maintained,
would result in better and more uni
form enforcement of all statutes.
Enforcement of the prohibition and
the food and fuel supply laws were
particularly referred to, Mr. Daugherty
explained in announcing dispatch of
letters.' There was no disposition by
the federal government to evade re
sponsibility, he added, but there was a
feeling that the states should make
everv effort to enforce their laws
which might be a duplication of fed
eral statutes.

frain from all forms of blockade and
boycott and agree not to hamper
