CALCUTTA. India—The English
government in India has been an-
nouncing to the world that all po-
litical prisoners are being released
and that new reforms are being
granted" the people of India.
A number of moderate constitu-
tional reformers, whose Imprison-
ment was obviously persecution, have
been releaaed.
The revolutionists, imprisoned for
life in the Andaman Islands, the
Indian Siberia, are not to be released,
according to a pronouncement < f the
government of India. Tne two Sa-
varkar brothers, known throughout
the world, and revered all over India,
re to remain 'n prison.
SENTENCED TO LIFE.
One of these brothers, G. I>. Sa-
arkar, was in 1900 sentenced to im-
prisonment for life in .ne A..daman
Islands and confiscation of all his
property because he was convicted
fur abetting and waging war against
he king. His crime was the pub-
lishing of a p->em which he did not
write. Although he appealed against
th? finding of the court, his appeal
was denied, and he was immediately
sent manacled to the what amounted
to a death sentence.
V. D. Savarkar. the other brother,
was a student of law In England in
1910 and a few years preceding. A
brilliant speaker and organizer, his
work in England so aroused the
British government that it charged
him with sedition. During an at-
tempt to deport him to India for
triaj. Savarkar escaped to France.
In France he was recaptured by the
British government, in violation of
international law, only the Socialists
protesting.
DEPORTED TO BOMBAY.
Savarkar was deported to Bom-
bay, tried, and sentenced to life im-
prisonment in the Andamans. He
| refused to enter any defense, taking
jthe revolutionary stand of ignoring
the right of any English court to try
I him.
