No Parleying With Sedition.

Delhi, February 24. In the Legislative Assembly, replying to a question in regard to the Government's policy with a view to a temporary suspension of civil disobedience, Sir W. H. Vincent (Secretary of the Home

Department) said that the Government could discover no indication -of any fundamental change in the attitude of the Non-Co-operators. The enrolment of Volunteers was continuing and seditious pro- paganda was unabated.

Until the illegal activities of the Non-Co-operators had com- pletely ceased the Government's attitude would be unchanged. Those activities had already produced « serious situation, which aight at any moment result in bloodshed and disorder.
