The United States Consul Gen- eral in Hongkong, Mr. George E Anderson, in 'a recent report stātos, that British shipping services on the Pacifo are resuming their old scope and quality. The Cana- dian Pacific Ocean Services have been released and will resume their fast passenger service from Hongkong to Vancouver.

For several years to come in. ternational competition will be largely dominated by shipbuild- ing and shipping, and this is a condition of things well cal- culated to assist Far Eastern Practically all development.
the competition in the ship- ping industry will be amongst countries which are now allied. and this competition will centre almost entirely between the United British Empire. the States, and Japan. The rise of Japan as a shipbuilding power is a very significant fact, and with cheap labour and a probability of a plentitude of material she should do very much mora than maintain her position.
