THE SHANGHAI RUBBER PROBLEM,

Mr. Edward B. Little writes as follows to the Shanghai newspapore :-----

In order to make a serious attempt to dea! with the Rubber problems now confronting Shanghai, I loroby invite all shareholders in Any Shanghai Bubber Co. to a public meeting in the large hall adjoining the Union Church, on the Soochow Creek, on Wednesday, Novem ber 9th, at5.15 p.m.

At that meeting I propose to introduce a resolution asking the shareholders to appoint à committee of from nino to fifteen representative men, who shall consider sundry propositions with a view if possible to evolving a practical scheme for the protection of shareholders' intorosty:

The.Committee will consider the question of forming some sort of association and also the question of the management and future course of the Shanghai Rubber Companies,

As soon as they have evolved some practical scheme, if such is possible, the Committee will doubtless call another general meeting of sliareholders in order to perfect an organisation.

Tale moverment cannot hope to be successful unless shareholders generally shake off their apathy and give their native support in their own interesta. If the meeting is poorly attended, that in itself will be interpreted to that the shareholders do not desire action such as now contemplate!.

moan

I desire at this point to add a brief personal statement, so that there may be no misappre- hension on the subject. personally havS seither bought nor sold any ebares in any Rabber Co., beither do I hold at the mement

any

shares in any Rubber Companies in Shang- bai, other than a small company of which I am Chairman. I claim no credit for this abstention from participation in the Spring rubber boom, and attribute my good fortune to good luck rather than good judgment.

I therefore have no private interest to serve directly or indirectly Everything I have done up to this moment has been pro bono publico. It ie trne the small Eubber Co, of which I am Chairman may, or may not, develop a further

That altogether question, however, does

not concorn the present issue at all.

I om naturally interested as a Shanghai man in the

Commerce of Shanghai, and recognise. that the present situation is most detrimental to the business interests of this commercial It is from that standpoint and community. that ulono I have aoted until now,

When this meeting I been held and a commitice appointed I shall prefer, if I consult my own inelisations, auly, to stand on one side and allow abler men to pilot these great interests to n place of safely and general pros. pority. At the same time I am prepared to de what I can to bring about such a happy state of. affairs if it bo possibla' to do so.
