HANA, INJAPANMIN VÄGGSLS..

Merch of the games along During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, 156 Japanese vowels passed through the Panama Canal carrying 207,608 tons of cargo. Their aggregate net tonnage under the Panama Canal rules was 813,946, One Japan venel passed through the Canal four times during the years 11 threw times, EB twice, and 49 onos only.

ין.

It is remarkable that in each of the Pears 1915 to 1921-monte Japanese Vessels passed through the Canal from Atlantic to Pacific than in the opposite direction. For the gatire 7 period the proportion is nearly 2 to 1. A simiar praponderance of veszels in one direction has been noted in studying other features of Canal traffic. This apparently due to the fact that cargo steamers in the trade with the Orient commonly find it more profitable to move from port to

Spez, and returning via Panama, or vice verse, than to turn back over the same route follewade in the outward voyage.

The great majority of Japanese vessels using the Panama Canal, in 1921 (04 out of 156) were in the trade between Atlantic and Gulf ports of the United States and the Far East, carrying general cargo. Five more loaded sugar and general cargo in Cuba for the Far East, and one dis- charged a cargo of rice in Cabs which

Top Japanese vessels carried coal cargoes from Chesapeake Bay to the West Coast of South America, and retumed with nitrate for the United States or Europe. Five additional vessels, which had not passed through the Canal going south, came north with nitrate cargoes from Chile.
