ADMIRAL BEATTY'S APPEAL.
Admiral Beatty stated recently that owing to the reduction of the naval personnel 20,000 long- service men who fought gallantly in the war are now unemployed and suffering from distress despito their pensions. He pointed out tha: skilled mechanics, electri- cians and engineers are hand- capped in seeking employment by the trade union rule regarding apprenticeship. Admiral Beatty suggests that this bar be not applied to these. and that em- ployers give discharged naval men an opportunity to earn their living.
A SLUMP IN JAPANESE SHIPPING.
In view of the slump now pre- vailing in Japanese shipping circles, a great deal of interest is naturally being taken in the matter of shipbuilding in Japan. It appears that unlike shipping circles shipbuilding circles are comparatively well off, owing to LTD high prices new steamers are fetching of late. It is said that although the importation of raw materials from England and America has become free since the Armistice, yet the cost of building has considerably increased since then through the increase in wages and the prices of raw materials. Hence the high prices for new ships already stated. Ships of 1,000 tons and over in displacement launched during the first eleven months of the present year numbered 124, equalling 556,921 tons and the figures, when those launched cr to be launched in the course of January are added, will further increase to 150 in number and 700,000 in tonnage respectively,

It was pointed out at a recent meeting of the Brisbarie Chamber of Commerce that it was very difficult to maintain Queensland trade with Colombo and India owing to vessels calling so seldom at Brisbane, and it was stated that the only hope of developing Eastern trade was to have vessels for those ports calling at Brisbane
It regularly. decided :0
to appeal Minister' -for Trade Customs during his visit to Brisbane, and to again point out the disabilities-from which Queensland expert merchants were suffering. Attention was also drawn to the trade with the Pacific Islands. A number of firms and companies interested in the Solomon Islands were located in Brisbane, but up to the present all the trade of the islands had gone to Sydney, as that seemed to be the only State zblo to deal with the native products. It was thought that if the Brisbane merchants showed a desire, in a practical way, to open up trade witir these islands, many of the buying agents might be prepared to support Brisbane merchants. It was decided that the shipping and insurance and trade and commerce-standing. committee should make inquiries as to the possibilities of trade with the Pacific Islands and the Easty
