MR. MONTAGU'S RESIGNATION,
Londen, March 10.
Mr. Montagu's resignation is the topic of the moment. Fastographs and details of bis career are given prominence in the respondence under large headings in the morning papers, prac- papers, which feature yesterday's Parliamentary debates. Cor-' tically without exception, agree that Mr. Montagn's resignadop was the inevitable outcome of his action concerning the publication of the Government of India's minute, which is generally regarded as a cardinal blunder by the Conservative papers which frankly express relief and do not hesitate to couple the name of the Viceroy with that of the Indian Secretary. They suggest that the whole affair constituted an audacious attempt to jockey. the British Gov- examen into a new polity without its knowledge and consent. Liberal organs on the other hand regret the loss of an excellent Secretary of State, though they freely admit that the resignation was the natural corollary to mistaken tactics. General anxiety is expressed by papers of all shades lest the incident be misunder- ready most serions. The Duke of Devonshire is mentioned as stood in India and serve to increase the difficulties which Mr. Montagu's successor.

During the year there have been completed and delivered two ocean going cargo steamers, three lighters, three pontoocs, one tender, two tear launches and four motor launches. The net results, although falling short of the years 1919 and 1920 are, in the opinion of the Directors, highly satisfactory in view of the general trade depression throughout the whole world."
