GLOGAN, MISS GERTRUDE

Letter, November 14, 192655

[Miss Glogan, a student at Barnard College, Columbia University, New York, wrote to Gandhiji on October 15, 1926, that world peace had become an obsession with her and that she was convinced of the nefarious sin of racialism. She continued:
"I know too well that I need spiritual guidance; nor can those around me live without it. It takes a man of your great insight to furnish it.
"For the sake of those in America who feel a need for you, come, oh Mahatma, and you will be assured of a sincere welcome."56]

Dear friend,
I like your earnest letter. When, if ever, God wants me to go to America, He will open the way for me and guide my steps.

Yours sincerely,

Miss Gertrude Glogan
Barnard College
New York
