Trawling Industry on the Chlox Coast.
la the course of a leading article in "Shipping and Engineer- ing" for June 8, is stated:- That the tramling industry on the China coast, in the present state of stairs cannot be made to pay has been amply demonstrated, but the reason lies not in the paucity of fi h, for the trawlers come in with catches that would be considered excellent in any home port, but because of the On
numbers of native fishing craft. Wed., 20th Juce at 7 am. with which she has to compete Sat., 23rd June at

With the powerful guilds in sympathy with the fishermen, so many obstacles can be placed in the way of the steam trawler. landing her catch promptly and profitably that such hostility becomes too great to struggle against, especially in the summer months when a few hour's delay in marketing the catch makes up --- the difference between putrid and fresh fish. Until, therefore, the Chinese fishermen themselves are brought to see that the bountr of the sea can be better harvested by means of steam, or motor trawlers and themselves "icitiste the change, the probabilities JARDINE. MATHESON & CO., LTD. point to the old system being retained in these waters; In General Managers.
Japan, on the other hand, the industry. conducted by the Japanese themselves, had been fairly prosperous, though in August 1915 trawler owners there. found it necessary to peition the Govery ment to grant no further licences as the existing fleets or uld barely pay their way. The demand: for the craft for WRT purposes has now brought about the abandonment of this industry! also, though there is little doubt but that, when craft can again be built er bought, it will be jev véd..
