MONTREAL, Que, Dec. 27—Busi-f ness leaders here Joined today in' ‘optimistic predictions for 1932. Heads of the Canadian Manufac- turers Association, the Montreal Board of “that? and the Chamber of. Commerce herald the approach of better times.

W, H. Miner, President of the C. M. A, believes history will rc- pcat itself. and good limes will fol- low a. cycle of depression.

He said: "History has shown that after a three year period of hard times, things get better again. It may be that we are just at llle end iof that cycle now. Perhaps we have yeven started to climb again, but ‘ business will start to improve again, when, I do not know. Some com- . panics, I understand, who deal in ‘staples, are showing improvement lrlght now.

"The people in Canada have ‘money, plenty oi’ it. Look lit the iway the Government loan was‘ lyoversubscrlbed; bllt most peopio are, holding on to it, and only spending what they absolutely have to, for' many are afraid of their jobs.

‘Arrest of President or All-Indian ' Congress In Bombay Caused l General Strike And Closing i Of Shops As Protest.

NEW DELHI, India, Dec. 27.— -

"Swami", in the Indian sense of complete independence as a goal for the country, was abandoned by the Moslcm League today and "respon- siblc government with adequate safeguards for Moslems" was sub- stituted as the ultimate aim.

i The decision, reached at a meet- ing here, is expected to have im- portant repercussions on the future of India. Zafar Ullah Khan, who

M311"! was a. delegate to the London Round newspaper office oi’ which he was Table Conference, presided at the

meeting.

The meeting o! the Moslem Lea- gue today was held in the home of i: Moslem contractor instead of the historic Fatehpuri Mosque, where imposition to Zafar Ullah Khan was displayed in a noisy demonstration yesterday by a small group of Mos- lcms. Apart from the decision re- garding "Swaraj", the meeting de- cidcd to remodel the League's exec-

utive bodies on lines of the Nation- l

al Congress and negotiate with all lpariies represented in the Moslem conference with a view to an amal- gamation between the conference and the League.
