SHIPPING OUTLOOK. SIB A. G. ANDERSON ON TRADE IMPROVEMENT.
In his presidential address to the manual meeting of the Chamber of Shipping at the Lethersellers Hall, St. Helensplace, E.C., Sir Alan G. Anderson make this fol lowing points:~~

The depression is with us still. But we have touched the bottom of had feights. There still is a redundant Nect of vessels in all countries ready at short notice to put a when freights ris and, by floud- ing the market, to bring about an amodi- ate lapse
of freights. The tonnage land up in the United Kingdon has fallen fron 1,300,000 tolls grow in January 1992 10 1.008.000 tons grows in January There is evidence that the position of the British Mercantile Marine is improving,
The late Government started lending
to shipowners or shipbuilder ey, to easy terms to bring about employment in the shipbuilding cares. It is dangerou to apply this artificial stimulant to the ship. building trade in its
present condition. If shipbuilles and owners are left to work out their own salvation according to veun- anie laws the orders for ships, will gradu. ally in hip built before its time by Giov ecument notion will probably postpone i dozen or mere other, orders which woul! otherwise have been placed.
THE PERIL
The success of our oversea trade is graves ly imperilled by the present methods of settling wages in British industry. We have left behind us settlement by sectional strike and we have not reached settlemei: by reason. We hope that the Labour Gove ernment will help us forward in the right direction
Taxation must stay high as long as Gay- ernment insiste qt spending at a level vastly above 1913 · Can it be necessary to spend on the Government supervision of Mercau- tile Marine about four times more than in 1918, or £14,000,000 more on Civil Ser vice pay in 1923 than 10131 Would it mor be better to reduce the work rather than burden industry with these heavy addi tional expus!.
Describing how the fall of the mark, had enabled the German shipowner and export- er to undercut foreign competitors, be said. that the Chamber estimates that on wages of crews alone the German Mercantile Marine last year saved £4,400,000.
Luckily for the tale of the world. the debauch of inflation cannot continue indg-
nitely.
It is no small refief to German trade that by the disappearance of the mark every business is cleared of its debta,
Great Britain, we are assured by our banker, has not lost, ground in 1923; money is being saved, issues of new capital are being rapidly absorbed, and London is again taking its place as the best market. for foreign loans.

between their
Ministry and the versy Admiralty. There was a point in that c troversy which was not generally known. When the Admiralty, said that they would like a wireless of their own on the aiferaft that was going to play a part in every air arm, that wireless was of far greater im

Electricity played a great part is far ps the Fleet was concerned. Unless sub- marines had large secondary batteries they would be useless One of the most interest. ing things that had come his way during the last month at the Admiralty was to Bud that while a development of the puten. tialities of the submarine was going on, there was quite eke an anti-submarine de partment. As submarins went ahend in one direction the anti-nbmarine depart meat was informed of it and immediately proceeded to devise something by which the subirarine could be countered. It was through electricity that nearly all the things were devised. So für ax

AMBASSADOR'S - TRIBUTE TO THE ENGLISH GENTLEMAN.

Senor Don Merry del Val, the 'Spanish Ambassador in London, in thanking Dr. A R. Pastor, who delivered an address at King's Collego
Spain and Europe," said that the Spanish idea of the gentleman had grown with the course of time; and, curiously enough, in no country in the world had it been given, greater or better expression than England. Everyone now looked to Eng- land for the type which was called "gen.. tleman," · There was'a very simple rentou for this. It was because in England alone had it been prasically realised that the education of will and of character was more fundamentally important than the mer cramming of knowledge into the hends of the young.
