Mr. Carles has alluded to a curious faculty certain small Chinese towns possess of attracting to themselves special trades, in face of the fact that there is no ostensible reason why a particular trade should go to that particular place. A very good illustration hereof is furnished by Chiao ch’eng, a name constantly recurring in connection with the skin trade. It is a small district city south of T’ai-yüan, the capital of Shanhsi, which in the course of the last few years has become a busy commercial centre, to the great perturbation of a recently arrived magistrate, who has discovered that increased trade means increased cost of living and is therefore bad for the people.

Although there were no casualties in the incident, the village of Shanhsi located about 1,000 meters away from the explosion site was shrouded in heavy smoke on Thursday, and many villagers said they had difficulty breathing and irritated eyes. Chou Chun-chiao (周軍橋), director of the Political Warfare Department of the Kinmen Garrison Command, accompanied UXB manager Lee Ta-yung (李大勇) yesterday to call on the Chinsha township head to discuss how to deal with the aftermath of the incident. Lee said the company was "very sorry" about the incident, and he would call on each household in Shanhsi to apologize and to arrange health checkups if necessary.
