in anger has availed us anything. I agree with the Mussulman view which is also the Hindu view that there is no imprisonment for the sake of it. All imprison- ment to be useful has to b* courted for religion or country and that by men and women clad in khaddar and without anger or violence in their hearts If the provinces have no such men and women, they should not embark on civil disobedience at all.
Hence it is that the constructive programme has 'been framed. It will steady and calm us. It will wake our organising spirit, it will make us indus- trious, it will render us fit for Swaraj, it will cool 'Our blood. We shall be spat upon, laughed at, sworn ,at, may be even kicked and cursed. We must put up with it all inasmuch as we have harboured anger in our breasts even though we have been under the pledge of non-violence I must frankly state that unless we can retrieve our steps deliberately, cultivate non- violence and manufacture khaddar, we cannot render effective help to ths Khilafat, we cannot get redress of -the Punjab wrong, nor can we attain Swaraj. My leadership is perfectly useless if 1 cannot convince co-workers and the public of the absolute and immediate necessity of vigorously prosecuting the constructive programme.
We must know whether we can got a crore men .and women in all India who believe in the attainment of Swaraj by peaceful i. e, non- violent and legitimate *. 0. .truthful means.
We must get money for the prosecution of Swade- shi and we will know how many people there are in India who are willing honestly to pay one rupee out of .every hundred of their past year's income to the Tilak
