HONGKONG TIDE TABLE,

From April 29th to May 5th, 1921.

The trouble originated in the decision of British shipbuilders to give their joiners a special advance in wages, in order to compete successfully for their services with the demands of the house. building trade. No sooner had they given the advance than the shipbuilders found. they would be expected to treat the other trades in like fashion, because the usual relationships of the different trades and their rates of remuneration had been up set. The state of the industry precluded the possibility of making universal advances, and the shipbuilders found themselves compelled to ask the joiners to revert to their previous wages. The men rejected the proposed reduction of lea, and came out on strike in December. Fri 29

shipyards other than those immediately responsible. Its results, have percolated far into the inner mechanism of the in dustry, clogging, first of all, subordinate movements only, but arresting finally its main motive power. The infiuence of the dispute has been felt in two direc tions. In the shipbuilding department the work of the joiners usually proceeds simultaneously with that of the builders, so that when the ship is launched the the process of fitting out. What has been happening recently is that ships have been constructed and launched and then have progressed no farther towards com pletion. The case of one large vessel may be cited as an example, She was launch- six months ago, and should have been ready for sci before the end of last year. She figured in the sailing programme of one of the big companies for January, and should have left this country. with 1,300 pussengers during that month. That voyage had, of course, to be, abandoned, and the inconvenience auffer. Fed by the intending passengers, whore bookings were cancelled, can be imagined.

In another case, where a new vessel was left in this incomplete state, the owners took the bull by the horns and, very reluctantly, it may be stated, sent her across to the Continent to be fitted. That Vessel was daly completed, and she sailed a fornight after ber appointed time. By driving this ship across the North Sen CHINA, the strike enriched the pockets of the Continental workers by 24,000 in wages, which should have come to London, K.

Besides the new ships there are those which require repair and overhaul, a process that fiuds employment for many thousands of workmen, in this country, Here, again, owners have been faced with the necesity of either withdrawing their ships from service or of sending them fo one of the Continental ports for refit. Specific cases which have come to light illustrate the grotesque unfairness of the disservice which has been done to the British shipyard worker by the strike of the joiners. Two British vessels were recently overhauled abroad at a cost of 140,000. A mere 8 per cent. of this went into the pocket at the Continental joiners; the remainder was paid in res pect of work other than joinery, and may be said to represent the penalty inflicted by the strike upon other. British workmen who would have abated in the proceeds of this particular job had it not been driven out of England. Other abipa bo fouging to the same company are to be dealt with on the Continent,so that it is estimated that no less than £70,000 of one firm's money will have a diverted from British industry in the space of higher emoluments in which really pre- few weeks.
