Another Attempt..

In 1922, another attempt was made to capture control of the Chamber, büt Mr. Sun Hár-chang, manager of the Bank of China was elected and again the control was widely diversified. In 1924. an- other effort was made by a small group to gain control but Mr. Yu Yah-ching was elected Chairman, This year, the group was better organised and in the voting, they were able to cast 152 ballots on cach of which were the same 35- names. This vote threw the

balance in their favour. That this movement was organised appears from the fact that about 150 mem-1 bers abstained from voting, thus exaggerating the partisan voting on the other side..

(they say) that al- together some 72 organisations are represented in the Chamber but only five ranily are represented on the committee and the rest are ignored. Under such conditions how can the Chamber properly claim to represent the merchant body of Shanghai?

In order to see whether or not an allegation of Chen Yu-ting that sume envelopes contained as many as ten balloting tickets Mr. Shing opened the envelopes but failed to verify this.

"Since the Hankow. Tientsin and. Nanking' Chamber (as well as # number of others) have incredsed thair committees, why it is that the Shanghai Chamber should have a committee of only 36 members in spite of the increased membership to more than 650?
