Traffic Growth Of 900 Per Cent. In 10 Years
VOLUME OF TRADE
The Leading Pacific Port Of North America
Commenting on Vancouver and the Oriental trade in its report for October, the Royal Bank of Canada says that the day has come when Vancouver must be numbered among the great ports of the world. Fifty different steamship lines now serve to carry Canadian pro- duets to every continent. Scheduled sailings are maintained to the important Atlantic ports of North America, and there are direct shipping connections with Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.

s period when other great ports have had difficulty la maintaining their pre-war volume of trade, traffic through the port of Vancouver has experienced steady growth. In 1913 there were 182 ocean- going vessels which visited this port, and the number calling there in 1928 was 1,944, an increase of more than 900 per cent. in ten years. During the past year the total trade of the port had a value of $260,000,000, an aggregate so large that Vancouver, rather than San Francisco, is now considered the leading facific port of Calves' Head & Fret North America.

The rapidly increasing volume of tradle between Canada and the Orient may be seen from Table 1.
The figures for each five-year period show approximately a 05 per cent. increase over the
preceding perlod. The trade for the year 1920 is 50 per cent. greater than the average annual trade for 1924-28.

It is well examining Table 1 to hear in mind that there has been marked rise in prices since 1913 and, as a result, Your bays,
the figures Calette, show a greater Increase in the value of exports and Importa than is war- ranted by the actual increase in volume. Nevertheless, when due re gard is taken of this fact we are still faced with the remarkable ex- pansion of trade between Canada and the Orient.

The inland port of Hankow is third, and Tientsin fourth. As yet, the hinterland of China is not organised to any ap preciable extent as far as foreign trade is concerned, and it is really only the coastal fringe of China which comes in contact with foreign countries.
