Dr. H. Von Glasenapp of Berlin in India. Professor Dr. Helmuth Von Glasenapp of the University of Berlin, has been touring in India since November last. While he was in Madras he had a long interview with our Editor, Mr. C. S. Mallinath, concerning several topics relating to Jainism. He said that the chief reason of his visit to India was to gain first hand information about Jainism by visiting some of the famous Jaina centres and sacred places and by making personal acquaintance with the Jaina leaders. From Madras he went to Bangalore, Mysore and then to Sravana Belgola, the stronghold of the Jains in South India. After seeing several cities in the Deccan he went to the North and visited Delhi on
