The rather surprising success scored by the Chinese forces under General Stilwell in repelling the Japanese unit which had invaded China by way of the Burma road has, for the moment at least, relieved the situation in that area. Two meetings held in New York over the past week-end crystallized, through discussion and plans for action, a good many of the ideas that have been demanding concrete expression in the minds of progressive Americans. One was the second conference of the International Free World Association; the other was the Eastern Regional Conference of the Union for Democratic Action.

The article focuses on historical materials on a model capitalist industry in Shanghai, China. On the establishment of the Shanghai Tobacco Workers' Union, the workers seized the opportunity to make various demands for an improvement in their livelihood. The capitalists at first tried to suppress the workers, but after realizing that the workers were united as one, all members of the administrative staff were in fact admitted to the Association, in which senior members of the staff were in complete control of its most powerful organ. The workers launched a full-scale attack and the entire committee was forced to resign. Most of the new committee members elected were workers and it was only then that the Association became exclusively a trade union of the workers. The total number of male and female workers on the day and night shifts of the South Seas Brothers Tobacco Company is over six thousand, and they feel that maintaining their livelihood has been difficult over the past year. The workers have made a total of seventeen demands, but there are no details on all of them.

Ten days after the Shanghai shooting of May 30, 1925 representatives of the Diplomatic Body in Peking arrived on the scene to investigate the affair and negotiate for settlement. Three days later the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce at Shanghai presented a series of thirteen demands as terms for such a settlement. These thirteen points drafted by the Chamber of Commerce are the only "demands" officially presented to the powers up to the present time, and supported by the Chinese Government. As such they must be distinguished from those other more far-reaching aspirations, which have been expressed, from time to time in the diplomatic correspondence of the Chinese Government.

On the island of Taiwan there appear to be numerous mutual savings and loan clubs of a type that may be peculiar to this part of the world. Each club is organized to pool savings and make loans to its members over a definite period of a few months, after which the club automatically goes out of existence. There is no regulation or supervision and probably no one club affects more than a few people. In the aggregate, however, they are sufficiently important for them to be taken into account in sample census surveys of family income and expenditures. Some salient features of a Chinese mutual savings and loan club are as follows: the organizer usually obtains a loan interest free. In some cases he may offer to accept a discounted sum of money as an inducement to get prospective members to join the club, each member of the club makes a withdrawal of capital at one and only one monthly meeting, when a member submits a successful bid and makes a withdrawal of capital front the club's funds, his withdrawal is discounted by an amount equal to the product of the amount bid and the number of other members eligible to bid.
