DEATH FOR ARMY GRAFTERS:
Penalty Fixed for Chinese Getting
More Than $5000 Profit.
NANCHANG, China, July 21. (/P)—
Hereafter graft in the purchase or sale
of supplies for the Chinese army will be punished by death or prison sentences running up to life, says an
edict by General Chiang Kai-Sheh,
China's "strong man."
To warrant the death penalty, however, those concerned must have
profited to the extent of more than
$5000. Those who take less "squeeze'
than that will get prison sentences of from six months upward.
