SHIPPING COMPANY TO BE WOUND UP.
Shareholders in the Pennant Shipping Company, Cardi; have received a circular convering an extraordinary meeting to consider a proposal to wind up the company. The directors state that the worldwide slurap, in shipping values and the very long period of depression in trade have made it impossible to carry on at a profit
On October 16th, 1922, a petition. for, the winding up of the company was pre- sented by one of the creditors, and although this petition was withdrawn the bankers, who held a mortgage on the Steamship Ghandhed to cover their over- draft, in order to protect their own ing terests took possession of the vessel. The company owned guly this one steamer, which was sold by order of the mortgages at a lary of $144.000.

The issued capital of the company amounted to £98,560, and there is due to the bankers 64,772, subject to the poss ible recovery of an amount under a claim for non-fulfilment of a Danube charter.
Formed in 1919, the company in its first year made a pront of £33,500, and a dividend of 15 per cent, tax free, was paid. In the following year there was a loss of £13,000. There are assets.
