One charge heard in official cir cles is that the Communista. mani- feat a spirit of obstruction toward the acttling of troublesome outside affairs, such the concillatory settlement of the Hongkong boycott, the settlement of the Bit monopoly: and other foreign affairs. Such obstructionist tactics are held by the moderates to be tantamount to trenson, for they tend to cripple' the Government in the conduct of the campaign against Wu Pei-fu.
The Communists, for instance, are finding ready allies in the more "radies) of the labouring and union men. One subject which came tip for discussion, in a star-chamber BCB on wis the matter of abolish ing the strikery' and picketers! courts when the Hongkong, boycott la called off, The moderates in- wisted that these extra-legal courts would have to be abolished, but the radicals and labour men insist that they shall continue to function to handle all cases connected with any kind of strike that may be go- The Communists" gave ing.. on. their support to this contention.
The Government does not dare to carry over its policies along this. line by a show of force, for to do so would be openly to force all the labour and union adherents into open allegiance with the Communist elemente:
