We beg to confirm our last letter to you of the 6th inst., and find we omitted to answer one further point raised by your petitioners viz, the explosion on the s.s. 'Petrolia' near Blaye. We beg to inform you that this was caused by crude oil from vilchi every explosion on a tank steamer live chison, and as you know, both the Quay regulations & the rules prevailing at Hong Kong itself, ensure that only refined Petroleum is carried on tank steamers.
We have now before us the Arthur memorial under date of July 1st.,1922. There is no point in this which is not fully dealt with in the copy of correspondence published by the Foreign Office, a copy of which we addressed to you by last mail, and you will at once see that your memorialists have been arguing upon entirely false premises. The trade at present carried on in cases is doubtless far more dangerous to shipping (if indeed there is any danger) than is the transit in bulk. The reason of the inception of the bulk business is the proved risk arising from shipping oil in the rail packages in which it now travels, leakage having in some instances amounted to twenty-per-cent. This, as a matter of fact within our knowledge, oil is at present carried 'in bulk' viz,-from accumulation of leakage during the voyage, in steamers absolutely unfit for this. It permeates below the ceiling and down into the bilges, besides frequently saturating the greater part of the cargo of wooden cases with oil, rendering them highly inflammable.
A steamer with the quantity of cases a Tank Steamer carries would be about 20 days discharging, with the grave risk of collision to lighters, taking those dangerous packages from the ship to the shore, and again handling them there. Whereas the cargo of a tank steamer is never for a single moment exposed but goes direct from the vessel, through pipes, into the tanks, and this in a space of less than 24 hours as compared with 20 days occupied by a cargo of cases.
The fallacy of your memorialists' arguments cannot...
