OUTBREAKS OF STRIKES.

Perturb Local Industrial Circles.

Local Industrial circles are con- siderably perturbed owing to the continuous outbreak of strikes in- stigated by Communists, writes the "Shanghai Mainichi,”

Considerable unrest Is also

in the prevalent

Shanghal Postal Employees' Union, a very powerful association which has; hitherto been in the habit of taking a leading part in all general strikes. in Shanghai.

Following the downfall of the notorious General Labour, Unfon, a Communistic organisation, the Postal Employees' Union elected new officials, mostly of moderate element, thus completely eliminat- ing the communistic Influence. This re-organisation, under the control of the Labour Untons Unification Committee, enabled the moderate elements to establish a fairly strong foundation which, however, is again being menaced by Communists.

As may be seen from the resolu tions of the recent fourth election of the Executive Committee, of the Shanghai Postal Employees' Union, Boong Kun-san, a prominent leader of the moderate element, was com pelled to resign, the radical element are, again beginning to come into

power,

It is reported that plans for a strike for an increase of pay and curtailment of working hours, etc., are now under way and the postal employees are said to be working hand in hand with their comrades in South China.
