As in most other countries in- creased activity in all branches of industry as cougared with the previous year, and that of a remunerative character, has to be recorded which in ile tura has had a beaeiviul effect on com. mores and shipping. The earnest endeavours of the Great Powers to avoid serious conflicts in politics and commercial questions, the out come of a growing feeling of responsibility on their part with regard both to war und tariff fonds have been potent factors in producing these favourable results.
