(British United Press)

AHMEDABAD, India, March 10.- The Mahatma M. K. Gandhi threat- ened today to withdraw from all po- litical activities if the All-India. Congress convention at Karachi later this month failed to accept the terms of his agreement with Lord Irwin, the Viceroy, under which a truce was concluded in his civil dis- obedience campaign. “I would have nothing to do with ‘the proposed second India Round Table Confer- ence if the Congress failed to ac- cept the terms of this accord", Gandhi asserted in s. statement to correspondents here. “Whyil-Be- cause in the first place I do not think I would be invited, under those circumstances." Gandhi, 1t was recalled, forced the terms of the agreement through the working com- mittce of the All-India Congress at New Delhi, despite attacks by such leaders as Uawaharial Nehru, Presi- dent of the Congress. A split then was feared in that important na- tionalistic organization, and the forthcoming session of the Congress as a whole was regarded as the cru-

The session was called after futile efforts toward c, conciliation between min- ers and owners. The Miners Federal Bureau had vainly attempted to per- isuade the owners not to reduce scl- laries in accordancc with their re- icent proposals. The Miners Council [voted three week ago against accept- ling s. reduction. At that time it was decided that, if the miners toiled to get satisfaction by March 10, the Council- should be ocnvoked to dc- claro a. strike. The miners visited Premier Pierre Laval and informed him of their decision.

This evidence will be the principle argument of the cuss now in preparation by George Whar- ton Pepper, the American agent for presentation to the joint America-n Canadian arbitration commission. If these contentions can be proved they are expected to remove the case from the realm of international contro- versy. on the basis of a wartime precedent in which the United States dropped its protests against a British seizure of German owned. vessels under United States registry.
