OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

South China Morning Post. The Censorship. Nearly as old as the war itself is public dissatisfaction with the Government's "cotoзalmonts of truth," to aso the plain expres- sion of Lurd Lorebara, and it is now time that steps were taken to keep the people better informed se to what is really happening in the various theatres of conflict. When the question was rained in the House of Lords this week, Lord Curzon reiterated that the Government's ananimous anxiety was to give the maximum in- formation consistent with disore- tion and we were informed that the Government is endeavouring to see whether there cannot be some arrangement of creating oloser contact between the pross and the fighting force whereby news of naval and military interest may be more readily available than hitherto. From the point of view of the press and the public such a concession to popular

The Toyo Kisen Koisho has already made arrangements to add four vessels to its fleet, and there is considerable activity in shipbuilding circles in Japan, more especially in the production of cargo steamers, for which there is at present great need, owing to such a large number of vessels having been with- drawn in consequence of the war. Exporters from Japan complain bitterly of their inability to find space for the cargoes they desire to ship, and also, incidentally, of she enormous freight rates which the shipowners bave taken the opportunity of in fisting. It is to be feared, indeed, that the large profits being made by ehipowners are to the detriment of the trade of the country as a whole and the sooner, therefore, the dearth of bottomy is overcome the sooner will Japan reap the fall benefit of her peaceful condition.
