The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

THE commanding officers of Europ-
4 can ships were used to treating
the Chinese seamen worse than cat
tie. Constant abuse, insults and
blows fell to the lot of the Chinese
seamen shaving aboard European
ships.
There was a reason for the anxiety
of shipowners and captains of Europ-
can ships to man their vessels with
Chinese seamen. Their labor is cheap,
and besides, they provide the officers
with suitable objects for their pugil.
istic proclivities. The Chinese sea
men were unorganized, and conse-
quently deprived of collective power
of resistance to the insulting attitude
of their exploiters.
The Union Emerges.
THIS had almost become a tradition
L among European officers, and great
was their surprise, horror and indig-
nation when all of a sudden the
Chinese Seamen's Union emerged be.
fore them as a formidable force.
The recent events at Tientsin have
stirred the whole of the foreign press
in China, which naturally tried to
ascribe the awakening of class-con-
seriousness among the Chinese seamen
to the efforts Of wicked agitators.
Following the old-established tradi'
ton of disregard for the personal dig
nifty of Cinnamon, particularly If the
latter happened to be on board ship
the engineer of the British steamer
"Henrique" and his assistant decided
to handle roughly the delegates of the
Seamen's Union who boarded the ship
upon its arrival at Tientsin, on bust
ness OF the union. The supercilious
British officers could not stomach the
idea OF Chinese seamen being protect
ed by their own organization, which
would put an end TO the humiliating
treatment of Chinese seamen by the
commanding officers.
Protest Strike.
HOWEVER, the result was this time
IL rather unfortunate for these typi
cal representatives Of the naughty
tribe of British officers. In protest
against the rough handling of the
unions delegates the whole crew went
out on strike. The lockers refused
to unload the ship. The lightermen re-
fused to handle the ships cargo.
A meeting was organized by the
seamen's Union at which the seamen
told Of the humiliation and blows 10
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-06-25

which they are subjected aboard for
eign ships. The speeches of the Chin
csc seamen were impregnated with
anger and implacable hatred for the
foreign exploiters. The lockers and
the boatmen spoke in similar strain.
Amid stormy applause a resolution
Of protest was adopted, and it was
decided in future to proclaim a strike
and boycott in case of any offensive
treatment.
The Provisions.
THE incident aboard the s. s. Hen
! rique" was settled upon the follow
ing conditions: the captain of the
steamer must offer written apology
to the Chinese Seamen's Union for the
rough manner of his agents in regard
to the unions delegates.
This apology must be published at
the expense Of the Shipping company
in the Canton, Hong-Kong and Nor
wegian newspapers The engineer
and his assistant, who insulted the
unions delegates, must be discharged
and never taken on by the company
again. The captain undertakes in fu-
ture to take severe measures towards
those guilty of maltreatment of Chi
nese seamen aboard his ship.
The union shall get the amount of
100 dollars as compensation for the
medical expenses connected with the
treatment of the delegates who suf-
fered.
In future the unions delegates shall
be allowed complete liberty to come
on board and carry out their union
business.
Forced to Accept.
A LII these demands were accepted
and carried out by the captain.
Thus, the Chinese Seamen's Union
has compelled respect for its organ
lied power, and has started upon the
road OF direct and organized action in
regard to commanding officers aboard
foreign ships.
Example FOR Future.
THIS case, the first upon the record
Of the young revolutionary union,
should serve as an example to be emu
lated in future conflicts between COM
handing officers and crews.
The need for organization has been
fully realized by the masses of Chi
nese seamen. The national struggle
against foreign Imperialism has arev-
olutionizing effect upon the tactics Of
The trade unions.
