Labour Union's Term for Chie of Public Safety Bureau As a protest against the appointment of Yang Hu, ex-Garrison Com= missioner of Woosung and Shanghai, as Chief of the Bureau of Publi Safety, the Shanghai Newspaper Employees Union has issued the following manifesto:—
During the first part of last yeary the notorious "manslaughter mech anies"—Yang Hu and Chen Chun—under the pretext of purifying the Kuomintang, worked in conjunction with corrupt officials, local bullies and wicked members of the gentry and massacred a large number of Toyal comrades of the Kuomintang, especially labourers. Eventually their services were dispensed with and we enjoyed a little tranquillity, The bloodstains near Feng Ling Bridge are not yet dry, and now the alarming news has been published that Yang Hu, the first class "man: slaughter mechanic" will be appoint ed as Chief of the Bureau of Public Safety. The hends of the labourers in Shanghai will again be at the merey of the tyranny of this bloodthirsty devil, All Inbourers. should therefore rise and protest.
