China Coast Conditions.
The following letter from "Mari- bar" appeara in Shipping and Engineering: The principal achievement in the gaining of pas- sages home and half-pay while on leave by the personnel of the China coast is the recognition by the companies of the need for a holiday.abn.
Modifications can be made from time to time as the need arises and no doubt in years to come, when the Board of Trade, that great dead barrier to progress and re- form, is either revitalized, or abolished, the Government will interest itself in a practical way - in. the remanning of the merchant marine and make annual holidays for ceafarers compulsory. This will be the only satisfactory way finally, and when all the merasu- tile marine of the world is sub. jest to like, conditions there will be no hardship to any particular llot of owners.

gratulate itself that it has at last got the great principle of holidays acknowledged and accepted. That the leave so far granted only amounts to an average of fourteen days a year on full pay; or one year in twenty-four, is of less
