THE SHANGHAI PAINTERS' STRIKE.
Intimidation of Blacklegs. According to statements made in the Mixed Court yesterday says the N. C. Daily News of Angust 30, the painters' strike had most of the features of a atrike in European countries even to the resort to intimidation sa a means the of preventing what in strikera' eyes. would be nothing short of blacklegging., There is amongst the many buildings which are being ran -up in Narking Boad one which needa painting. This operation had been in progress 'when the strike began and while some of the men, loyal to their guild, threw up the point rég and be-|- came gentlemen at large, at least two stuok tɔ their job scorning the charms of idleners on strike' pay and beedless of the pickets' peaceful persuasions.
It was here that Byib Ahsan intervened, realizing that the scion of the two reoslcitrante was likely to undermine the authority of the guild and bring the strike to an untimely end.
