Money donated to pay up debts of "Indian Opinion" is really expense of the struggle and you have approved of it. Ear marked funds are spent for their purposes. I myself have sunk everything I had and am maintained by friends. We are all wedded to poverty and think of having common kitchen to minimise the expenditure etc. etc.

[Mr. Natesan's very moving earnest please] It is a shame that India gave only 1 lakh where as Mr. Gandhi alone has spent over 2 lakhs for the cause. [A very worthy tribute to South Africa Satyagraha.]

Thanks for the financial help which was very timely and for the care bestowed on the deportees. Strict economy is necessary to enable us to continue the struggle. All are not above board. So helping individual family was discontinued and were asked to stay at the farm or find. their own means. It also enables us to know good from the bad elements. The farm conducts educational activities also. Complaints are there but they are very few. Details about developments and visits. I hope settlement with South Africa will be reahced soon.
