rather thankless work, partly be cause there is so little permanence about it. Most of the arrangements come to must necessarily be pro- visional" · The task, continued Mr. Dodwell, was rendered the more difficult by the tendency of the ex- tremist clements of nationalism to exploit the legitimate desires of the moderate section for political free- dom. Such exploitation, he said, was undoubtedly taking place. The Provisional Court at Shanghai was an instance of it. That Court was intended to act judicially, but was. in fact, functioning politically, and was being used to undermine the authority of the Municipal Council, in the hope, apparently, of dis- crediting it.
