Canton, Aug. 11.
The Canton workingman up to a few days ago had, during a period of about two weeks, staged street Lattles almost daily. About a year ago a new labour organization was formed whose name translated literally into English is known as Delegates' Union. was formed at a time when the pernicious influence of the communist propagandists was at its height, it is not to be wondered at that the Labourers' Delegates' Union 2 for the most part composed of the radical element. In many branches of industry, two separate organizations of workingman are to be found, one of which has affiliated itself with this radical association the other being a member of the Koangtung Central Labourers' Union, which is composed largely of Inbour unions which are opposed the domination of labour by the Enssian communists and their Chinese henchmen.
Some weeks ago the cry was raised by the Labourers' Delegates' Union that Chan Sam, heag of the rival association, the the president of the Union of Teahouse Employees, had ordered the unions under his contre! to carry on warfare against its members. Chan Sam was arrested by some of his enemies while attonding 2 meeting at the Kuangtung University, but the government subsequently ordered his release. The escape from punishment by the government of the Labourers' Delegates! leader made his enemies more bitter than ever, and the number of street fights increased, in which taarly were wounded andre few killed.
