LONDON, Dec. 1.—(IP)—The Mahatma M. K. Gandhi is expecting to disclose tomorrow whether Ihe future holds war or peace for India in ner struggle for Independence from Great Britain.
Gandhi indicated tonight that he held little hope of avoiding a renewal of Indian resistance or civil disobedience against British rule as a result of tho negative results of the second India round table conference, which closed at. noon. He reserved until tomorrow a definite decision on the future policy of Indian Nationalists.
"My present impression is that we have failed," Uandlil said after hearing the pleas of King George and Prime Minister J. Ramsay MacDonald for patience and fore bearing In future negotiations. *'I believe the government and I are following different paths. Tbe situation in Indian Is very ugly and gives little room for hope, because the government has be come panicky.
The chief cause of tbe comparative failure of the conference was the minorities question, which Involves the Hindu-Mosleni dispute over representation In the proposed new government. This inter-India controversy was not unwelcome to some British political circles which have opposed freedom for India, as lt prevented pro gress toward a new constitution.
MacDonald will open debate on the India policy In the House of Commons Wednesday,
