AMOY

The total tonnage of shipping entered and cleared under General Regula- tions was 2,535,072 tons as against 3,834,627 tons in 1937, and under Inland Waters Steam Navigation Regulations 217,349 tons as compared with 882,867

tons.

Consequent on the fall of Amoy there arose a very acute refugee problem; the health of the port remained, nevertheless, satisfactory due to large-scale prophylactic measures. Thanks to the vigorous efforts of the International Relief Committee, to whom and to the community generally great credit is due, the situation was efficiently and satisfactorily handled.

At the beginning of the year the Amoy municipal authorities drew up plans for the construction of a stone bridge connecting Kaochi, on the northern side of Amoy Island, with Tsimei on the mainland. Work was already started when, unfortunately, local hostilities intervened.
