Labor
Agitators
in

Win

of

and
Are
Conducting
Terror
Campaign
SHANGHAI,
March
1G.
There
was
little
chance
in
the
mill-
tary
situation
today
although
the
Cantonese
armies
are
continuing
their
drive
toward
the
city.
One
hundred
and
fifty
specially
trained
agitators
from
Hankow
have
apparently
completely
won
the
good
graces
of
local
Labor
Unions
and
are
conducting
a
campaign
of
intimidation
and
murder
with
the
object
in
view
of
ensuring
a
solid
and
prompt
response
for
a
general
strike
when
the
call
is
issued.
Under
the
direction
of
these
agitators,
labor
unrest
in
Shanghai
Is
Increasing
daily.
The
chief
method
of
the
agitators
Is
to
work
.
..
-
on
their
fellow
countrymen
fears
of
personal
Injury
to
their
families,
thus
creating
terrorism
thoughout
the
ranks
