(Generals a banquet as we have done with all the leading officials in past Your correspondent has given a graphic and. most interesting account of the Generalissimo's trip wp the mountains and his doings at Kuling. These descriptions are as interesting to us residents as to your Shanghai and other readers.
The narration is also quite accurate with the exception of one unimportant particular namely, Chiang [Kai-shek has never been up the mountain or to Kuling at all; we still await hia coming.
Tam, ete, 'COWARD S. Lint Kling, Nov. 28, 1926, The correspondent in question is invited to explain—Ed, IN the office of the Central Fire Brigade is a bulletin board to which Persons wishing to know details of fires im the Settlement may refer. This is used considerably by the newspapers in getting fire date. Yesterday we noticed that fire alarm was sounded at the corner of Woosung and Morrison Roads at 1.04 on Tuesday and the details read, false alarm with good intent."
So far there has not been a solution of the strilee at the Wei Tung Cotton Mill at 12 Lay Road and the trouble therefore continues. Some (481 persons are involved. The! strikers attempted to intimidate the workers of the Hou Sung Mill, 22 Lay Road, and partly succeeded because 40 juvenile workers and 60 day' shift men failed to put in an appearance on Saturday. The wise counsel of the friends of the latter} prevailed and they returned to work en bloc yesterday. The trouble at! the Yuh Wab Silk Filature Nos. and 2 factories also continues. Sixty workers returned to their posts unconditionally on Saturday morning' and apparently were satisfied with the treatment they were receiving but 46 of them failed to put in an appearance when the doors wei opened yesterday morning. Their absence is attributed to an attack which was made on them in Point Road by other strikers when they were going home from their work on Saturday afternoon. Altogether, 800 workers in this: company are affected.
