THE PORT OF LONDON.
The annual report of the Port of London Authority shows thating trade. the trade of the port is expand. ing. The total net register ton. nage of vessels arriving and leav- ing with cargoes," and in ballast amounted in 1925 to the highest figure ever, viz. 47,064,975 tons.. This compares with the total for 1913, which was 40,080,282 tons, This growth of trahe has not, unfortunately, been attended by an increase in the revenue of the port, and is explained by the re- duction in charges which came into force at the beginning of the financial year. The total revenue of the previous year at £6,429,862 was larger than that for laat year, £6,303,125. As expenditure was slightly heavler during 1925, the balance of trading revenue was reduced by some £185,000. After meeting interest charges. there was actually a deficit of 26,528 on the year's working,
which has been deducted from the credit balance at £523,868. brought forward from 1925.
