ENCOURAGING STMPTOMS,

When he saw a company of 400 or 500 shipowners be was orereome-by the rentance which they repre sented. There was hardly a romer of the world into which, when things became more prosperous, their ships would not go (Laughter.) He realised that this was not thu luppiest moment for him to aldress shipowners, when the facts were that there were 12,000.009, tons more shipping in the world than in August, 1914, and about half the business to las done by all that tonnage. I was a tribute to their optimism that they should be dining together in that cheerful atmosphere. (Cheers.) Although it was a commonplace, he would not be deterred from saying that this on-litions of shipping would not and would not revive until the total trade of the world was inereusel. (Hear, bear.) Therefore the one problem in front of intelligent statecraft-supplied either by the present Government or by its more gifted aurevssors-(laughter) the one problem. of intelligent atulecraft of the work) was to multiply the total trade, which was being done in the world, se to vary the disas trous conditions in which our business life at this moment, was lived, that there would be arger number of potential customers. So long as the present shipwreck of the world lasted there could not be a permanent improvement.

best aids to recovery: a cynicul pessimism rould only prolong the period of distress. The conditions of industry in other coun- tries were as bad as, if not worse than, in this Great Britain, but, unlike us, they bazi had recourse to, or had contemplated, the use of all sorts of quack remedies. In stead of idling in the Government doctors, fall the industry in this country naked to be left alone to manage its own affair. It was because of eeunoni necessity that British mercantile murine had developed. and that fact might well give them' confidener whet they were tempted to fear the friendly og unfriendly rivalry of com- petitors who had been, uctuated more by sentiment than natural need. No essential industry could be kept permanently on an theconomic basis: it ist ultimately find its conisercial level.
