Cement
The quantities of cement imported into the United King dom before the war were of some importance. In 1912. 122,331 tons were imported, "97,087 tons of which came from Belgium and most of the remainder: froin Germany. In 1913, : 10%,324 tons ' were imported, with 94,382 tons of Belgian ongin The imports during 19 4 amounted to 73,392 tons, and in 1915 to 103 tons. In 1916 the imports practically ceased, only 447 tons arriving, 260 tons of which came- from the United States.
Japanese Loan to China.
It is satisfactory to lesîn that negotiations for a Japanese loan to China, to be used for repairing the damage done by the recent floods in Tizitain and neighbour- hood, have been definitely settled. In view of the contiguity of Japan to China, however it is rather surprising that there has been no national subscription in this Country with a view to helping the sufferers. In the West, where resources are now heavily strain- ed, it is necessary to concentrate on the various funds opened in connection with the war, but in Japan, which has profifed so much financially by the war, it should by quite possible to raise a substantial sum for, the assist ance of neighbours. The losa will be helpful, no doubt, butthat is a mere matter, of business. A fund on behalf of the sufferers by the disastrous fcds in China, largely responded to, would be a graceful act, and would do more for Japan's special interests, in China than any number of vague international agreements

They threaten to dump now sad their attitude is » regarded with apprehension by Japanese manufacturers. Java sugar manufacturers were once asked to supply their surplus to the Allies at. good prices. The war was a blessing to them, But now that the war situation has called away tonnage from the ahores of Java and not enough tonnage is placed at the disposal cf Java sugar men they cannot enjoy that good trade. Already in the middle of November, according to a prominent sugar
a here, the Java sugar market. Began to experience the present difficulty and the standard grade was then quoted, at Glds. 875. Since, the accumulation of the visible stock in that market has gone on accelerating and a récent price was Gids. 8.50. The latest figure is more than Gida2 below the normal Here it is appre- hended by sugar manufacturers that those warstricken Java manufacturers might start dump- ing in Hongkong and Japan. Even now the low quotation from that source provas a 'check to the con- sultation among manufacturers here as to disposition of new sugar. Refiners maintain that thes will not buy Taiwan cruda goods at the price quoted by Japanese centrifugal manufac turera bat will buy cheap gooda from Java.

Thus the Japanese market is brought to a standstill and in spite of the fact that the market is now in one of the greatest buying seasons, dealers are compelled to keep falo.
