Referring to work re: village industries that Kumarappa was

Kumarappa says that work in Punjab was superficial and showy, spending lakhs
of rupees without achieving any concerate result. Refers to helplessess of
Shri Vaikunthlal and Goshiben. Kumarappa had been pressing.for Rural
Development committee of the congress. Spoke to Kripalani who promised to
call a meeting of the provincial congressPresident & Sacretaries Refers
Shri Pattani of Bhavnagar. The provincial government seemed to be concerned
with vote cating programmes and schemes rather than real constructive work.
We should attach more improtance to basic deucations. Kumarappa's reference
to his health complaint. Blood pressure- keeping better in spite of heavy
travelling programme. Refers of his agreeing to contribute articles to the
"Harijan". |

correct meaning of celibacy. Manu sleeps with me not as a part of experiment
but as part of observing real celibacy. I should be what I seem; hence this.
I have tried to explain my action through speeches (three in number).

Vinoba writes to Gandhiji that he is in receipt of his letter,
and also that he has gone through Gandhiji's letter to Radhakishern. He has
sent a reply to Gandhiji through Kakasaheb. Regarding the matter under
discussion, i.e. Maun's sleeping with Gandhiji, Vinoba says that he does not
want to argue his point. But, however, he states his view clearly and says
that it is not necessary to go through such an exercise to attain the highest
stage in Brahmacharya. Vinoba refers to the stanza in the third Canto of Gita
which Gandhiji had quoted in support of his action. Vinoba does not agree
with Gandhiji's interpretaion of that stanza. Vinoba again adds that he does
not want to argue because it is not in his nature to do so. But he says he
feels sorry for he had to differ from Gandhiji. This was only the second
occasion in thirty years that Vinoba had to differ from Gandhiji. Vinoba's
eyes had grown weak and hence he does not want to do much writing work. Ref.
to Krishnachanandra, who was in constant touch with Vinoba. |

Expalins that if freedom gained by passive reisitence has its
wake bloodshed, it is resistance by the weak and not by the strong for that
by the strong would be non violent not only at the time of resistance but
even after freedom is gained. In the Indian struggle resistance was of the
weak; otherwise there would have been no bloodshed and increasing expenditure
on the military. Hopes however that the mentality will change. |
