Current Coast Wages,
It is satisfactory to learn says Shipping and Engineering, that, R & result of the constant repre- sentations made by the China Cost Officers Guild and the Engineers' Guild of China to the
Chinese owners of the steamISTS plying under the British flag be tween Hongkong and Saigon, 1 bandsome increase has been made in the salaries of captains, officere and engineers. The new scale of pay that has been established in a minimum of £37 for masĪZES, #24 for chief officers and S19 for second officers. Second and third engineers receive the same se chief and second officers. This scale marks a notable intrnaes in the pay of officers of what is known as "outside StaškÚTE and particularly so in the ease of second officers, who receive a rive of about £3, the former scale Second being 516 per month. officers in these ships are in fact receiving one pound per· month more than chief officers in the larger companies who start on $18 per month. It mast, of course, be taken into considera. tion that the ** outside” ships do not grant a passsge home and half pay, for six months after siS years service, as is done in the larger companies, a concession that makes a difference, in the
case of a junior chief officer: "of about £1,15s, per month. This d ruises his pay to £19 15. month against the #24 of the chief officer in an "outside steamer. Pay in ships of this' class from Shanghai is almost on a par with the south. This raises a very nice question as regarda those officers who have been brought out by the two British companies underthree-year agree- 15th Mar. at 11am.ments. These agreements specify that the officer shall be paid the 8th Apr.
current wages of the China 00231, and the question to be decided is, what is to be considered the "current wages of the cost Is it the amount which the two companies concerned have agreed upon as to what is sufficient for their officers,

The pay of a
recond officer in theas compazien £13 per month, rising by in- crements of £1 per annum to £17, so that he starts at 86 less than is currently paid in the "outside" companies and, at the close of his three-year agreement, is still
receiving £3 less than the “og
ride" second officer. If the car cent wages of the coast must be taken as the average paid in all companies trading in Chinens waters, then it is obvious that the second officer an agreement is not receiving the wages for which h contracted, and if he were would be receiving much more than the officer engaged local
