The following letter, of interest to local members of the Merchant Ser- vice, appeared in a recent issue of the Journal of Shipping and Commerce:— Slr-We have been asked by the

China Const Officers' Guild to draw at- tention to a very unsatisfactory state of affairs existing on the River Yang- taze. It appears that the risk of pira- tical attack is generally increased by the fact that traffle on opium, although prohibited, and of course not counten- anced by shipowners, is rife and that large and valuable consignments (are shipped 'with Hille attempt at con- cealment. The trade Is highly organised, and the position. Is compli- entel hy the existence of rival gangs of traffickers.
