BOLSHEVIK MENACE,
(Continued from Page 5.)
A reduction in the population of St. Petersburg from two millions before the war to 400,000 and 500,000 now and its ruined state were also referred to by the! lecturer. the matter arising out of a question by the Hon Mr. CG. Alabaster.
In reply to another member of the nudience who quoted the "China Mail" and asked the lec- turer it he had heard the rumour with regard to the opening of the gates of Shameen, Mr. Hellstrom said that he had, but it was only, a rumour. When the rumour had got about before the "Bolsheviks had caused to be re-erected some kind of barrier outside the Chinese' Customs and, had warned the Chinese that they were able to be killed if they had" anything to do with Europeans.
His reference to barricades was challenged by a member of the audience and the lecturer admitted that it was perhaps too strong a term to use in indicating duck und pig baskets near some newly laid cement although they had been strengthened somewhat after the rumour about the gates. being opened. He did not think Shameen would be attacked by the Bolshevik Government as they preferred to kill trade rather than risk defeat by war.
an
Lecturer Applauded. The meeting applauded answer given by the lecturer to Mr. M. Manuk who asked what remedy he would suggest for the |present state of affairs.. A voice interpolated with "British inter- vention" but Mr. Hellstrom answered that it was not for him to tell Britain how to put her own house in order.
Conditions in Swatow were re- ferred to by Mr. A. Macgown of that port. He referred to the taxes imposed by whatever mili- tary leader happened to have con- trol at the time and said that the the taxes were collected by Chinese Chamber of Commerce whose representatives were accompanied by military. Up to the present house rents fone method of taxation) had been collected three years in advance (tr.) Mr. Macgown referred to the impossible treatment of the British Consul at Swatow who received no replies. to his despatches to the Chinese repre- sentatives and was not received when he called personally. Examples were given of the intense anti-British feeling in existence there.
