The figures dealing with the amount of international shipping passing through the Suez Canal provides some curious comparisons Great Britain heads the list with 16,534,455 tons, 57.1 per cent. of the total clearance. This is practically the same as for the previous year, Holland is second on the list with 3,094,848 tons-an increase in beri case of 800,000 tons. The United States is not a big customer to the Canal because of course most of her trade with China and the Far East is carried across the Pacific.

The passenger returns show that the total in 1996 was 256,432; and last year the figures were 340,318. Other details in the report are that the total number of ships pass ing through the Canel was 5,543, the net tonnage 28,989,048, and the average size per vessel 7,230 tons. It is interesting to read that the Royal Navy contributed in larger measure than usual to the Canal traffic during 1997 owing to the dispatch of reinforcements to Chius, and the transport of the Shanghai Defence Force accounted for a heavy item of tonnage.

But the true meaning of the Suez Canal Company's report to the British Empire lies not in analy tical conclusion but in gross tatals It is fundamentally a British high- way.
