is so comprehensive and bears evidence of so much deliberation that it would take a volume to dissect and elaborate its facts and conclusions. It is for that matter, rather overweighted, and tands, therefore, to be academia where it might be pertinent, and de- liberative where it might be positive. It is weighty and well- considered, and marshals its array of facts and figures with admirable thoroughness, and balances its arguments with scrupulous care. Its defoot is its heaviness, its weakness that it rather fails to crystallize a definite trade policy after the War, especially in relation to foreign State-sided shipping, and the certainty of bitter competition from Germany, backed by all the resources and all the determina- tion of a country which still hopes by whatever devious means to wrest the trident from British hands. But that is largely be-" cause the committee declines to obtrude the shipping interest at the expense of the nation and the Empire as a whole, admitting at ance that there are national and Imperial considerations of deepor and graver importance than the prosperity of shipownere. It is ter this admirable reason, that the committee, recognising itself to be a responsible body, is con- tent to state its views rather than dictate a lead. The report is no fighting manifesto; it is no slogan cry to shipowners to be up and at the Government in defence of their interests, as one or two critics would have had it. In the end it will be found that the report is all the more effective for being impartial and judicial. On the question of State control, The Compendium" thinks the report is sound and emphatic. laying it down that the first care of the State must be to do nothing to imperil the pre-emisent position which

pertinently, has demonstrated the impossibility of Government controlled business ever holding. its own in international com merce." That is very well said, and is something to be remember. ad Summing up the report, the Editor of "The Compendium' garsit repeats many home truths, which are perhaps worth repeating just now, but it proposes no drastic changes in our shipping policy. It condemns Government interference in the building and managing of ships, and limita State control to ensuring the. safety of our vessels and their crews, but favours financial assis'ence in restoring lost lines and trade connections. In this connection the Ntate is invoked to
contínue the probibition. against the transfer of British abips to foreigners for not lees than five years after the war; and also to reserve the country's ship repairing facilities for Brit- lsh ships for two years after the war. Also the State is asked to leave shipowners a sufficient margin on their profits for new building. In the net result, the

that British shipping should return to the status quo after the war, and for the rest it would leave our shipowners a free hand to regain their position in
the world's trade. Most shipowners, I imagine, will agree with this broad conclusion, but it is just possible that some fighting will have to be done before the status quo is restored, particularly in the matter of taxation, and per- haps also in the matter of Government supervision, if cer tin bureaucratic and doctrinsirs elements in cür policy are not kept well in hand. And in any case, we shall probably have a Minister of Shipping. Hneal" Bu cessor to the Shipping Con- troiler to watch in a kindly spirit Father than to dominate, the interests of British --shipping.
