The Ocean Salvage and Towage Company reports deficit of £29,605 for the 21 months to September 30. In addition there is a loss on the sale of shares in asso- cinted company amounting to £15,364, loss on sale of vessels and
gear £22.559 and written off salvage gear and stores £2,791, making a | deficiency of £99,812. Deducting the £1,599 brought in reduces the profit and loss debit to 292,213.
The report says that the unsatis- factory salvage pödition which has resulted in trading losses for some years past has continued. Four vessels have been sold to a Turkish salvage company, which is now working with marked success in the Dardanelles and in the Black Sea. The London agency of the Turkish company has been secured for a period of ten years.
