ABSTRACT
In penning this brief tribute to Mahatma Gandhi I do so in all humility, as one who has never had the honour to meet him, but as a pacifist who sees in his gospel of nonviolent resistance the only practical solution to the problem of peace and war, and the only sane tactic in the social struggle. In the Civil Disobedience Campaign of 1930 Gandhi demonstrated the living power of non-violence, a magnificent example to a world that increasingly understands no power but the sword, and which is seemingly incapable of learning that violence never defeats violence but merely begets it.
