PRESIDENT OF COMPANY ON SHIPPING CONDITIONS. The regular general meeting of share- holders of the Nippon Yusen Esisha was held at Tokyo, on November 2g9th to re- ceive the report and accounts for the six months from April 1st to Septembur Söch: Mr. Ito, President of the Company, presided.

A dividend of twenty per cent. per annum was declared.

Addressing the shareholders. Mr. Ito made the following remarks in regard to the Company's business during the term under review and the future outlook:-

The results of the Company's operations daring the term under review were rather unsatisfactory. The net profit 'was only F.3,330,000, which was Y,2,200,000 less than that for the preceding term and Y.8,000,000 less than for the first half of last year. This discouraging state of affairs was practically due to inactivity in the world's economic affairs, resulting: in a decline in cargo and a fall in freight

It may, however; be supposed that the freight situation will not become worse, provided no further unfavourable factors present themselves.
