There were no Communist demonstrations of a serious nature throughout the year. Immediately prior to some of the more important anniversaries, Police succeeded in seizing quantities of inflammatory documents, without doubt intended for distribution upon those anniversaries. Numerous raids were carried out, and many communists of varying grades of importance were arrested, and subsequently banished. No strikes or serious labour troubles due to communist agitation occurred.
THE NEW TERRITORY.
On
5. The frontier generally was quiet during the year. December 29th, a band of four men, undoubtedly from Chinese Territory, committed a double murder at Ping Tse, Sheung Shui District. The gang failed in its original object of robbery and retreated to Chinese Territory again. Friendly relations have been maintained with the Chinese Authorities throughout the year.
There have been several armed clashes in Chinese Territory between Chinese Customs Officers and smugglers of goods from British Territory. In one case a band of robbers was engaged as escort to the smugglers and took part in the fight.
There were four murders and nine robberies during the year.
