Reds To Seize Part Of British Consulate
London Explanation Of The Extraterritorial Position
FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT
London, Jan. 16.—Communist China is expected to requisition · parts of the British Consulate in Peking, say high Foreign Office officials in London.
It was reported yesterday that parts of the American, Dutch and French consulates in Peking have been seized by Communist officials.
Unlike the United States who have been vociferous in denouncing The Chinese, action as "more in the application of tribal law than of international law" the Netherlands and French governments have made

But while the arbitrator is vested with the power of mak- ing an award, whleh, so far as the dispute he is adjudicating is decisive, it is deplor able for the unions, either directly, or by will be that he Inference, to suggest binsed or net unfairly. Such an accusa- by une tim has been explicitly levelled union, and there is the inference of it in the Dairy Farm workers' letter, inasmuch as they hint that if a "promise" of an increase in wages dues not result from arbitration, they will regard any other decision coming from such blaked and unacceptable. If the Dairy Farm workers' union, or any other union in Hongkong possesses this conception of arbitration they would be much better ad- vised to refrain from submitting their case to any such court, for clearly they would approach arbitration with a prejudiced mind, and in the event of receiving less than they considered reasonable, would harbour the grievance that they had been "had.". Arbitration, on the point of higher cost of living allowances is the only solution to the impasse which has been reached, but once both sides have agreed to this course of settlement it is necessary for them to realise that whatever decision Is handed down is binding; and for the unions to appreciate that, a court of arbitration, the constitatlon of which is mutually agreed upon, must be, and will be, utterly disinterested: that it can deal only within its terms of reference: and that it is bounden duty to be scrupulously fair. Moreover, if the workers genuinely believe they have a strong case they need have no fear of the outcome of arbitration.
