CHINESE LABOR
WAGES WARP ARE
ON ALL FRONTS
Native Bosses Find the
Workers Militant

MOSCOW, Sept. 10.-(By mail. -
Recently the strike movement in
China has spread to Chinese under
takings also. The printers, railway
men, post and telegraph employees
and the textile workers in several in
.dustrial centres have put forward a
number of demands, increase of
wages, the eight hour day, vacations,
the recognition of the unions, etc.
In this connection the strikers
stress the fact that thetstrike move
ment in the Chinese undertakings is
purely an economic one and not as
is the case with the foreign under
takings, political The working class
is marching at the head of the move
ment for national freedom and bears
the chief burden of the struggle
against the one-sided agreements and
for customs autonomy
At the same time the working class
is carrying on a struggle for the
betterment of its own conditions OF
life. An appeal Of the Shanghai
Trade Union Council points out that
wages have remained stationary for
ten years despite an increase in the
cost of living amounting to a 100
per cent. For this reason the Chinese
