From Tokushima it is reported than an extensivo.tract fland, measuring 27,000 tsubo, has been bought at Watashizos, Sakano- murs, Naka-gun, Tokushima prefecture, for the purpore vf establishing a large shipbuilding yard. Who is the purchaser of the land is not definitely known, some saying it is Messrs. Suzuki & Co., of Kobe, while others. ascribe the project' tɔ a jolat. stock company to be organized by certain shipbuilders and shipping mn in Kobe and Osaka, Re- garding the character of the pro
ct, there are also diverse reports; one report says that the building of large steamers of s 10,600 ton type will be undertaken, while...“ | another report asserts that the projected dockyard company will specialise in the construction of sailing-shipa All reports, how- ever, agres that the anonymous projector or pr. jectors are undèr- taking a large shipbuilding enterprise and are also arranging to lay down a tramway for a con- siderable distance in the neigb-, bourhood.- Japan Chronicle.":

As regards the supply of top- nage our Homeward Freight market remains unchaosed but the phenomenal rise in exchange, especially during the last few weeks and the fact that it still shows a strong upward tendency, is gradually bringing the exp it- trade of China to a dead 'op and until the markets at both ends, ie Chine, Europe and America begin to equalise themselves but again there is very little prospect of any new business being done so that one must expect to see. exports fall off in the near future, Coastwise:The costing trade has been quiet during the past fortnight and very little enquiry exists which, howev r, is only to be expected as this is usually considered the "slack" season and the rice export from Yangtze Ports has not yet begun to make itself felt. For New York via Panama: Con erence steamer has ben declared to load here; second half of September and rates of freight by her will be 40% above Tariff No. 16 with no rate less than 20/- per ton.

jealousy of shipping men in Europe and America. To begin with, trouble arose regarding, Jap nese verseis teading · in Indian waters. Then followed the stoppage and examination of Japanese steamers at sea by British cruisers. The British re- Igulation of tonnage has had an unfavourable effect on the ship · ping markt in this country. The export of British shipbuilding. materials was absolutely pro- bibited. In France, too, Japanese steamer was illegally informed, while the Kenkon-maru IIL and the Sbintsu-marú ware denied supplies of coal. More recently, the American attitude- towards Japan's shipping has been very unros÷rved. : At the beginning of June last the United, States made a formal proposal to Japan that she should place some of her shipping at the Alien" disposal. The United States then urged Japan to join the proprsed agreement among the Allies con- cerning the regulation of ocean freight, rates. This was closely followed by the American prohibition of the export of ship-
