Thus, 16 per cent of the officers serving in Foreign ships were of British nationality, with a decrease in the number of officers and an increase in the number of ships.

The Nationality of the Crews in British and in Foreign Ships was as follows:-

Hence in British ships:-

And in Foreign ships :-

1917. 1918. 0.75 % 0.58 % of the crews were British. 8.83 % 6.88 % of the crews were other Europeans. 90·42 % 92·54 % of the crews were Asiatics.

TRADE.

As pointed out in previous years the figures which are given are meagre, and of little value, being derived from reports of ship masters which are given in round figures and several items of cargo are only entered under the heading "General".

In a few cases, I can however give more accurate figures and these are:-

1917.

IMPORTS.

These show a decrease of 1,041,917 tons compared with the year

Increases are shown under the headings Beans, Flour, Liquid Fuel, Rice, Sandalwood, Sugar, Timber, and General Cargo, while decreases are shown in Bulk and Case Oil, Coal, Cotton and Cotton Yarn, Rattan, and Transit Cargo.
