many millions in this season's trade. There is too much at stake-too much capital and too much employment-(says the Manchester Guardian), for Lan- cashire, to remain silent, and if -** the Shipping Controller does not come to the rescue of the cotton trade the leaders of the trade will take it upon themselves to inform him of its necessities. The first requirement is sufficient shipping to move the overfl,wing stock in the Manchester, warehouses, Unless those stocks are jedaord
cannot merchants
continge accepting deliverie: The next requirement is the provision of a defaite amount of tonnage month by month so that the trade may 'know to what lim tation it has to work. The state of affairs created by the Shipping Con- trpller's ac ion is so serious that it must be faced immediately. Manchester merchants' say the facts.mu-t compel the Shipping Controller to find tonnage for Far Esstern exports, and they, base a good deal of confidence on their own appreciation of the nations! advantage not less in war time than in peace-of maintaining a profitable export trade. It is likely. that before this week ends the India and China sections of the Chamber of Commerce will take the first steps towards an ascer hand and the amount of business 'tainment of the actual stock in
ia prospect. With the knowledge lihús gained the Chamber will be able to approach the Shipping Coatroller with precise iofirm- Fation, and the responsibility of deciding how uch" business must be sacrificed will rest with in Afterwards it may be left to the trade itself to apportion the available tonnage, and already a rationing proposal is in the air. It is not easy to calculate the effect of the Shipping Controller's ation in terms of unemployment -but it will be somewhere near the
mark to say that half of the total" output of the Lancashire mills goon to India and the other Fat Eastern market, The stoppaze of anything like that amount of trade would bring distress into the cotton districts. ·
