33 PER CENT. OF BRITISH SEAMEN UNEMPLOYED.
The annual report of the Ship- ping Federation, of which the Earl of Inchcape is the President, tells an unhappy tale of un- employment at sea. It appears that 47,644 British seafarers are idle, that is to say 33 per cent, of the total.
THE CHINA MAIL.
Industrial relations in the shipping industry during 1930 have, with a few minor excep tions, heen good, and between the Shipping Federation and the National Union of Seamen the re- tutionship has been "completely; harmonious." No dispute affect- ing seamen has cccurred during the year.
It is recorded that out of al total personnel of 203,560 serving in the Mercantile Marine, 133,606 are British, 53,571 ure. Lascnts, and 16,383 only are foreign sub-; jects.
The position with regard to ap-) prentices is extremely satisfac- tory, 400 joining annually. It is from this source that the officers
of the Mercantile Marine are sup-
plied.
