Transcript | \ 44 MAHATMA GANDHI was re-delivered in the midst of joy acclamation, aud practically perfect unanimity. It was open to you to refuse, or to hesitate to respond. You have chosen the better, though, from a wordly wise standpoiut, less cautious way. You dare not go back without hurting yourselves and the cause- But for the evil spell that the existing system of government and, most of all, this western education has cast upon us, the question will not be considered as open to argument. Can the brave Arabs retain their independence and yet be schooled under the aegis of those who would hold them under bondage ? They will laugh at a person who dared to ask them to go to schools that may be established by their invaders- Is the case different, or if it is different, is it not stronger in our case when we are called upon to give up schools conducted under the aegis of a government which, rightly or wrongly, we seek to bend to our will or destroy ? We cannot get Swaraj if not one class in the country is prepared to work aud sacrifice for it- The Government will yield not to the logic of words. It knows no logic but that of brave and true deeds. |
