The Irish Controller of Shipping.

Mr. H. G. Burgess, Irishi man- ager of the London and North- Western Railway Co., has been- appointed Shipping Controller för | Ireland, says the "Dublin Evening Mail" Mr Burgess has lengthy, and varied experience of railway and shipping service. He has been connected with the London'? and North Western branch at Dublin for a great many years, and has much experience of the problems affecting transit ad ministration, and is wall. acquainted with the working of the various Irish ports. He has been connected with the Dablin. Port and Docks Board for over twenty years, and only a few months ago resigned his membar {ship, a step which was much re- gretted, but which, as he himself explained at the time, was rendered unavoidable by pressuref of official duties, and which no doubt foreshadowed the larger responsibility with which his name is being associated.

Shipowners and Excess

Profits Tax

At Swansea, recentis. Mr. Turpin (Messrs. Richards, Turpin and Co., steamship owners, Swansea) stated, "in view of the national importance of maintains ing the preponderance of the British mercantile marine in face of the severe competition of neutral shipowners, who have amassed, and are amassing, huge reserves, it was a question whe- ther it was wise to deplete the reserves of British shipowners by excessive taxation rather than to earmark the same, ready for the building of new ships when war

is

over. Neutral shipowners. having huge reserves, would- |build for all they were worth. This point had been strongly urged by Sir Alfred Booth, chairman of the Cunard Com pany, and other prominent and sound men, who saw that the danger of requisitioning had been increasing as needs increased, and there was nothing new in. the Chancellor's statement "ch this head. The Chancellor was frank enough to say that at the present requisition" rates it was difficult for shipowners to make even pre-war profits. so, except for small tonnege (which is free | of requisition), there would not in future be much income for the Chancellor from shipping. There was nothing disclosed in the Rudget so far as shipping war concerned but what was pretty e well anticipated.
