NOTORIOUS GANG
JAP. PROTECTION SHANGHAI FIGHTING (Reed. Oct. 24, 9 a.m.) NEW YORK, Oct. 23. The Shanghai correspondent of the New York Times says that the battle which occurred on Saturday between the police of the International Settlement and Chinese employees of the Japanese-sponsored regime is likely to prove fatal to the candidacy of Wang Ching-Wei for the leadership of the proposed new Central Government. It also openly established Japanese .connection with lawless elements.
The group which precipitated the battle has an unsavoury police history, including armed robberies and acts of violence. The group is known as “Wang’s special service corps.” It consists of 60 members.
It was this notorious gang which Japanese gendarmes protected.
