RICH CHINESE BAND

the business
of abducting rich men in Shanghai has
become more game of hide and seek
than a crime. the wealthy residents
of the city have formed the Anti-Kid-
mapping Society.
To, become member, one need only
be rich and thus target for the kid
napers. The society urges immedi-
ate execution of all convicted kidnap-
ers and seeks to teach rich men how
to avoid being taken.
Kidnapings are everyday occur
rences and no Chinese of means dares
to drive down the street, even in daHr
light, without an armed bodyguard.
But the guards and chaffeurs are not
always trustworthy and often cases are
reported in which these servants have
put the finger" on their employers.
The wealthy bankers, merchants and
brokers' are constantly deviSing schemes
to out-guess the gangsters. Some of
them wear coolie clothes to hide the
fact that they possess money. They
seldom take the same route twice be-
tween their homes and places of bust
ness and every new plan for protection
that occurs to a rich man is passed
along to others.
