Tor her reyersion to Manchn methods
IN settling the latest strike.
Employees on the Picking Hankow
railroad walked out for the third
time within year. The strike was
called Just before the Chinese New
Year.
The government decided TO grant
nothing. First the military executed
10 OF the strike agitators. The next
move was almost as drastic from the
Chinese viewpoint. All eating houyes
and food stores on the line we're
guarded by soldiers and merchants
ordered to see that no railroad en-
ploye purchased food.
Then a few Of the strikers we're
: picked out to run tho first trains. En-
-gineers were chained in the cabs and
armed soldiers we're put on the ten
ders. The engineers were ordered TO
run the trains thru or die. Similar
methods were used TO get other nee
essary help.
In three days the strike was ended.
But the drastic methods used have
aroused Chinese organizations every
where.
