Growth of Industrial Revolution
OF China Given Detailed Discussion

Urged from within and from without,
the Municipal Council tthe supreme au-
thority in Shanghai appointed child
labor commission, which presented its
report two years ago. The report rec
commended a series of mild measures,
none of which could have entailed any
serious loss.
Nobody contradicted the moderation
of the proposals. But, all the same, this
happened: Since the land regulations,
which are the Magma Charta of the
Shanghai Settlement, require referen-
dunn to the ratepayers of all measures
of a general nature, the taxpayers were
summoned to a meeting at which they
were supposed to vote. The taxpayers
having the right to vote numbered only
2,700, Chinese landowners and mer-
chants in the settlement being excluded
from all electoral rights, either because
or in spite of the fact that their con-
tribution In taxes forms IS per cent of
the whole.
The English ladies' committee set to
work to insure full attendance at the
meeting, but less than 400 voters came
to it. A quorum was lacking and the
meeting had to be postponed. At the
second meeting the attendance was
even smaller. The opponents of the
regulations silently gained their cause.
1t is only fair to add that these gen.
tlemen are not very pleased with them
selves. They hide behind the poor rea-
sons one usually finds in such cases. A
leading member of the Shanghai Club
the great English club which prides
itself on having the longest bar in
the world and on having invented the
million dollar cocktail-told me: 1T
was a movement got up by lunatic
women. of whom we have so many in
our islands. How could we let ourselves
be ruled by them?" The good man was

from the ruinous competition of foreign
cheap labor, thereby maintaining the
present American standard OF living
and level of wages"
Representative Henry D. Norman,
Democrat, of Kentucky declares: II
think there should be some dawnward
revision, as we'll as upward revision,
and also that there are some other
articles that should be included. The
tariff should be regarded as an eco
nonic. and not as a political. measure.
1 shall support, if the opportunity be
mine, protection for some agricultural
and some industrial interests of the
country" Representative John Nc
Sweeney, Democrat, of Ohio says:
II know of but one free trader in the
House. The other Democrats are all
in favor of a reasonable and equitable
tariff, and assure you that the
legitimate interests of our country
will be as safe in the hands of the
present minority party as in the hands
of any other group of patriotic citi-
zenS."
Others WrO Support Idea.
Representative Loring M. Black, jr,
Democrat, of New York writes the
Manufacturers Record During the
campaign, informed the Democratic
national committee that 1 favored the
protective tariff" Representative
Emanuel Celler. Democrat. of New York
states that he would support any tariff
measure that seeks to equalize differ
ences between costs here and abroad.
Mr., Celler thinks that many are clam
oring for higher rates who do not de-
serve them, "and that only meritorlouS
claims should be honored." The Brook
Iyn Congressman desires to be counted
as friend of honest protection"
Senotor Lawrence D. Tyson, Demo-
crat. of Tennessee reflects Southern tar
iff views when he says that he regards
the tariff as IAN economic and not
political measure" and adds: Il am not
a high tariff man. But. in view of the
fact that we have had tariff now for
more than so years and the country has
established itself, its business and val
ues and labor conditions upon protec-
tive tariff. it would not be right, in my
Judgment, to revise the tariff in such
wav as to interfere with the American
standards of living and level OF wages.
The one diScordant Democratic tarlH
note is struck by Representative Henry
T. Rainey, of Illinois, longtime mem
ber of the ways and means commute;
Mr.. Rainey contends: =,
There is strong element among the
bankers of the country opposed to any
more upward revision of the tariff. Our
Investments abroad are developing into
a tremendous factor; high tariffs are not
compatible with our present position as
a creditor nation and we will commence
to find that out about the time we are
in a position to seriously attempt an
other tariff revision"

spected factories. They decided conse-
quently to take refuge behind the privi-
leges guaranteed to them by extra
territoriality," and to refuse point-blank
all access to their factories to the in
Spectors" from Peking.
A recent British Blue Book contains
q typically pompous phrase. 1t is from
the British consul general at Hankow:
THE British establishments have no
reasons to fear the most searching in
Spections, but cannot admit the right
of the Chinese administration to inter-
fere with their business"
Indeed, the certain incapacity and al
most certain corruption of the Chinese
inspectors justified every reserve. But
a true understanding of the permanent
interests of the foreign employers should
have suggested to them generous free
measures at the moment they were re-
fuSing their Chinese workmen the SOL
diSant Chinese guarantees. Not a bit
of 1t. The following sentence is not
taken from labor inquiry, but from
the last decennial report of the inSpec-
torate general of the Chinese maritime
customs, the most important and con-
servative citadel of British influence in
China: 1T cannot be denied that the
level of existence of this class of the
population (unSkilled laborers) has sunk
TO the most cruel and painful extent"
1t was at the same time that most of
the English newspapers in Shanghai
treated as ''groteSque and unheard Of
the demand which formed the object of
the latest strikes: Seats for the work
ing girls or young motherS-Who were
working IL hours a day, with no break
for meals.
Indeed with the exception of the
japanese firms, foreign firms employ
women and children under IL in a
greater proportion than the Chinese
houses. These are the latest figures for
Shanghai: Chinese factories, $4,000
workers, of whom 81 per cent are wom-
en-; European and American factories,
S6, 1000, of whom 70 per cent are women.
Children under IL come under a
separate heading. American factories
employ a few more than the Chinese.
while European factories employ more
than three times as many.
