STARTED BY SAILOR IN 1901.
The rapid rise of a Chinese shipping company during the past few years, to a point where it is now firmly established and able to compete with Japanee lines in the constwise trade. is outlined in the current issue of the Chinese GovernI~ ment's Bulletin of Economics.
The Cheng Kew Shipping Company," says the Bulletin, "was started in 1901. with expital of only $40,000, but it now one of the leading shipping firms in China waters. The company has at pre- sent a fixed capital of $10,000,000 and owns a fleet of 23 steamers with a total tonnage of 61,700. Its net profits for 1923 amounted to $383.339, though lust year was considered a bad year for ship ping business, partly due to the unfavour able coalitions of the money market in the Far East.
STARTED BY SAILOR.
