THE TIMES CORRESPONDENT.) BERLIN, June Ist.
The announcement in The Times of a scheme for a direct German service to New Zealand has probably been regarded as inconvenient. At any rate, it has not yet found its way into the German Press or received any German explanation. The undertaking would be a fresh instance of one of the cardinal aims of German shipping policy-independence of foreign lines and especially, wherever possible, freedom from necessity of tran shipment to foreign ships. In the negotiations between the Government and the German shipping companies for the revision of the arrangements for the postal services to the Far East, to Australia, and to the South Seas, the ideal of faking Gorman trade indepen- dent was expressly formulated. The principle is to be applied especially to the South Seas trade, in order to cut the Gorman Protectorates out of the Anglo- Australian sphere of interests.
If a bid is now being made for an independent New Zealand trade, it is not surprising. There has been a great deal of unnecessary fuss about the abandormant of the Australian postal subsidy. The truth is that it has ceased to be advisable from any point of view, except that of sham prestige, and so far from marking a retreat, marks the begin- ning of fresh efforts to: prish German shipping under the conditions of freedom which the Hamburg-Amerika Line now. almost absolute master of the German situation has always advocated.

too much importance should be attached to the velo on the importation of frozen meat and wool into Germany. It is reported that during the recent Reichstag. debates even the Conservatives expressed willingness to abandon the veto in the interest of the Australian service.
It is an unmistakable fact that the
improvement of Anglo-German rela- tions and the relief of naval tension in the North Ben have synchronized with the appearance of world-wide schemes for the development of German trade, and especially of German ship- ping. We have had under the guise of international negotiations the effective. combination of the Hamburg-Amerika line: and the North German Lloyd and we have had the feverish foundation of special societies. for the furtherance of Germany's trade with most countries. under the sun ment CORS TO LONDON
Tomorrow representatives of the Norddeutscher Lloyd, the Deutsch Australische Gesellschaft, and the British shipping lines are to meet in London to discuss the proposed new service from Germany to New Zealand which we announced on Friday. It is believed that all the parties desire to settle the question amicably. But one disagreeable fact for British trade has to be faced. A trade in carge amounting to something less-than-100,000 tons per annum will

the campaign will be conducted on a great and systematic sente, There is really no trade in which British owners must not expect the keenest competition TOKOHAMA in future. A few months ago it seemed as if the German mail and passenger service to Australia would be abandoned; but it is now understood that the Nord- deutscher Lloyd is reconsidering its decision. The German Emperor is known to have interested himself in the question, and it appears that, after all, the Reichstag may grant the company a heavy subsidy until the end of 1917. It is understood that one provision of the new agreement between the Hamburg- Amerika and Norddeutscher Lloyd is that the Australian traffic shall be left to the Norddeutscher Lloyd for five years; but few would be surprised to find the Hamburg-Amerika entering the trade at the end of that period; and it is noteworthy that the Norddeutscher Lloyd is only asking for a temporary subsidy. If the Norddeutscher Lloyd receives that subsidy the line can bo relied upon to make good use of it, British owners, would not be surprised to find the company putting into the trade linera considerably larger than any, of those of the P. &0. and Orient com- panies. The deepening of the Suez Canal. is making vessels of greater draught a possibility. The British companies have been rebuilding their fleets of recent years, and it is doubtful if any further carry more for itself. It is not Germany The alone which is building. In the South building programme is in view.
