BRITISH INCOMPETENT
CHINESE VIEW OF HANKOW INCIDENT TRADE AT A STANDSTILL. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received January 11, 1 a.m.) SHANGHAI, January 10. Under the regime of the Council of Provincial Administration things are now quiet in the British Concession at Hankow, but there is a feeling of expectancy, as the rabidly anti-British sentiment still sways th© native city. A similar feeling is reported to prevail in Wuchang, Ichang, and Shasi, where anti-British demonstrations were held. Trade in Hankow remains almost at a standstill. The authorities removed all offending posters. A local newspaper expresses the popular view of the position, that the Nationalists did the right thing in taking back the British Concession, seeing that the British authorities were incompetent to protect British subjects.
