Prisoners At Work

In this article, two correspondents, Fraser Wighton of Routers and Deryck Winterton of the London Dally Herald write of their visit to a Peking Gnol as part of the Labour Party goodwill tour of China,

Peking, Aug. 18.

The British Labour Party delegation now visiting China and newspaper correspondents accompanying them today had their first sight inside a Chinese gaol when a number were taken separately over a prison administered by the Peking People's Court.

The journalists were conducted by Colonel Liu Hsiang-Chun, deputy director of the gaol, a former "regimental commander," who said it was hves from hard to mouth, there built 40 years ago by a Chinese warlord and taken

Rumanian Government Reshuffle Announced

Vienna, Aug. 18. Radio Bucharest announced today a Govern- ment reshuffle, increasing the number of Rumanian Vice-Premiers from three to five.

A commercial assistant was accused at the Victoria District Court this morning of being the 'brains' behind a plot to fill empty drums with sand, stones, water and a minute quantity of indigo paste and then sell them as genuine Japanese indigo paste.

The accused, Pang Lun-chak, alias Pang Ting- kwok, 37, of the Chung Suen Industrial Co., pleaded not guilty before Judge A. D. Scholes to conspiracy contrary to common law and applying a false trade description to goods.

The first charge alleged that between October 1, 1953, and November 22, 1953, the accused conspired with Lee Llang (not in custody) by fraudulent means and dishonest devices, to cheat and defraud Sze Chu-chal, by By inducing him to accept delivery of, and pay for as Japanese in- digo 20%
