Wu to direct the proceedings. I may mention here that I

learnt some time ago on good authority that the moulders'

the strike, and in my despatch No.151 of September 11th

concerning the bomb outrage, that a clash with the ex-

December last, when the Customs surplus question was pro-

minent, the enfarced withdrawal of the "hemeen employees

views with him was emphasising the right to strike, my

French colleague and I agreed that that was a commonplace

in our own countries. Te pointed out however that, in the

present instance, no attempt had ever been made to discuss

might have. They were simply ordered out of the Conces-

sions, without notice to us or consulsation with them,
