UNSKILLED JAPANESE SEAMEN.
In order to save shipping ex- penses, shipowners in Japan have begun to weed out unskilled seamen employed during the wer and to take men from the training schoolsat comparatively low salarios. It is added that most of the discharged men have already either returned to their
occupations obtained other jobs, and that therefore the unemployed are not very numerous in spite of the shipping depression.

THE N. Y. K. DIVIDEND. The Nippon Yusen Kaisha is now calculating various business accounts for the first half of the business year which ended on the last day of March. The move- ment of cargoes on the coasting and ocean lines is now paralysed. It is a fact that on the European" and North American lines each of the liners carries numbers of passengers, but this can hardly pay for the high shipping ox- penses. The Kobe Fushin learns that of the estimated gross profits of some Y40,000,000 for the cur- rent term, about Y7,000,000 is a net profit and that a 20 per cent. dividend, viz. Y5,800,000, will be the largest the company can pay the shareholders.

This bas been mainly
due to the scarcity of builders capable of constructing large oil engines, although there were many who were prepared to build machinery up to about 1,000 b.p. So pronounced is this situation |that the motorship William Pend, which bas just been completed for the United States Shipping Board, the machinery was pur- chased from Burmeister and Wain in Copenhagen. Even in hull however, European practico was followed, and the vessel in her main particulars is similar to the East Asiatic Com- pany's motor ship Afrika and to the Bibby Line's cargo vesel Dorsetshire. She is designed for a deadweight carrying capacity of 12,000 to 13,000 tons, and is equipped with two engines of 2,250 h.p.. identical with those now installed in the Afrika. Ip fact, these motors were originally built for the Afrika, but were sold to the United Sherbus
Board | Shipping
beir urgent request, A amalier motor vessel completed in the United States a short time ago is the Charlie Watson, an oil tanker with a capacity of about 2,500 tons of liquid fuel. In the vessel two engines the Werkspoor design, built in California, ATB intilled, each developing about
at
750 b.h.p. No fewer than 20 engines of this type were ordered by the United States Shipping! Board while the war was in progress, but when the Armistice wad declared the ships in which they were to be in- stalled were cancelled. The engines were, however, construet- ed, and they will probably all be installed in mercantile vessels in due course. Although electrical auxiliaries are usually fitted in motor vessele, steam plant, bas hitherto been more commonly adopted in tank ships owing to ite. suitability for driving the sargo pumps. In the Charlie Watson, however, electricity. has been utilized for all purposes, and in this respect the new véssel marke an interesting departure."
