BUEZ CANAL DUES.
#
For those who are looking out for the economic swallow that presage"a return of the era of cheaper shipping passages, the news contained in a Renter telegram a few days ago to the effect that the Suez Canal Company in view of the colossal profits made last year will shortly reduce ats charges on shipping passing through the Canal by 25 centimes a ton will be welcome, says the Allahabad Tourer One of the favourite excuses put "up" by Sahipping companies for their high charges. has been the Canal dues. There seems to be no reason why a largely State-owned company like the Canal should be allow Ced indefinitely to expand its profits at the expense of the British public who are the mainstay of the passenger trafic and the fadian and Anglo-Indian merchants who are the chief importers of the goods that go to make up the cargoes of the non passenger steamers. The number of ships passing through the Canal last year Was some 4,000 and the total tonnage was High as three figures Fever 17,000,000.
are compared to the returns for the last number of the year of the war when commercial transits was only 1.21 and the total tonnage less than 5,000,000 there is, a lot of leeway to be made up before the figures approximate to the pre-wir conditions of 1913. It is obviously in the interest of the Canal Company to foster shipping traffic as much as possible op the principle of small profits and quick returns. So long as trade was booming the high dues were no doubt justifiable. but as the Company is one of the few enterprises that cannot be dispensed with in these days of rapid communications i is essential that it adapt itself to the depression in the shipping business
It
hould do everything possible to foster trade by cutting down dues consistent with maintaining, a profit sufficient to pay dividends and meet development ex- ponditure.
