General Wood
Will Economize
Consolidating In Government Ac

Care Of Lepers
Manila, P. I., Dec. 21 (By The As
sociated Press) Governor General
Wood has announced that he already
has begun work on plans to con
solidate certain government activi
ties on an economical basis, In or
der to obtain sufficient funds for the
euro of lepers and the insane, and
for education, public works and pub
lic welfare work in general.
I'Thls does not mean, however,"
said the Governor-general, "that the
services of certain officials or em
ployees will have to be dispensed
jwith in the government. We want
jail the officials we need, but we do
:not want the unnecessary ones."
One of the flrBt steps taken to
ward pruning clown the expenses of
I the government Is the announcement
of the merging of the mint bureau
with the Insular treasury, the mint

destroyed; public and private build
ings burned; government treasuries
and urivate - houses looted. Men,
women and children have been slain
and wholesale conversions have been
made at the point of the bayonet.
The district magistrate has issffed
the following communique: Infor
mation has been received that many
forced conversions to Islam are be
ing made in the eastern Amsoms of
Calicut, and that Mathumana Illom
In Puthur Amsom is one of, the
places where such conversions are
being made on a large scale.
"A refugee states that he saw 26
Hindus shaven in Moplah fashion
like himself and made to chant some
verses. There are also about 20 wo
men and children shut up In Illom.
Women are also made to repeat
verses, and are made to wear Mop
lah costumes.
"The following statement, re
corded from Pilathottathil Kelap
pan, who escaped with many wounds,
shows the late of those who refuse
to embrace Islam: 'Two wounds on
the back of my neck were Inflicted
with a sword last noon by a Mop
lah. These wounds were given to me
In the Jungle near Illom. Several
Moplahs were present with the man
who cut my neck. About 50 per
sons have keen beheaded and thrown
into a well. I was also thrown above
them. I caught hold of a creeper
there, and got up, and slowly came
here. Hindus are beheaded thus be
cause they refuse to become Mussul
mans'." Mahatma K. Gandhi, Indian Na
tionalist leader and non-participa
tion advocate, refers In Young India
to the Moplah outrages, saying: "The
Mussalmans must naturally feel the
shame and humiliation of the Mop
lah conduct about forcible conver
sions and looting, and they must
work away so silently and effectively
that such things might become Im
possible, even on the part of the
most fanatical among them. My be
lief is that the Hindus as a body
have received the Moplah madness
with equanimity, and that the cul
tured Mussalmans are sincerely
sorry for the Moplah's perversion of
the teachings of the Prophet."
