The Shipping Control Liw

and Oversea Service.

Among shipping-men sme doubts are entertained regarding the interpretation of the provis- ions of the Wartime Shipping Control Law. It was at first thought that, in spite of the provision that the voyages of Japanese steamers between for- eign ports are subject to the permission of the Government, no euch permission would be necessary when the voyage starts and ends at a Japanese port. This interpretation has "since proved wmng, contrary to expectations in shipping circles generally. As a matter of fact, the Tatsuma Kisen Kaisha has now applied to the Government for permission to employ the Somedono-maru, owned by that company, but chartered by the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha, on the service from Japan to Java, Bombay, North America, and back to Japan. Whether this permission will be granted r not is .sid to be uncertain. The Government interpretation of the "terms *between foreign p rts" includes not only Vladivostok, Saigon and vicinity, but al:o Tsingtau and Shanghai. As to the inclusion of the first two ports shipping men are quite mareed, but thes are protesting that it is improper to put Shanghai an 1 Tsinatsu in the category of "foreign ports" as provided for in the Wartime Shipping Control Law.-"Japan Chronicle."

Shipping and Banking.

When the shipping market was

| booming some time ago bankers made no scruples of advancing large arms of money for vastels. This was especially the case in Kobe, (says the Jap in Chron-

centre of the shipping business in this country, and the banks vied with one another in making investments in shipping interests. As a matter of fact, the ship- owners in Kobe proposed that the Government should establish a semi-official bank for the promotion of the shipping tṛada just as they have long since established semi-official banks

advantage be left in the hands of the ordinary banters who were. as a matter of fact attending to that business. The authorities,

Į however, raised no objection to the establishment of a private banking it stitution (devoted to shipping interests, and a bank of this sort was soon established by Mr. Okazaki, proprietor of the Okazaki Kisen Kaisha, the book” being known as the Okazaki Ginko. The banking business connected with the shipping trade continued brisk until the issue of the Wartime Shipping Control Law caused a suider slump on the shipping market, or it would perhaps be more correct to say, on the market for speculation in shipping. Then the bankers suddenly restricted accommoda- tion, and assumed a very cautious attitute towards investments in shipping interests. When the

In addition to the restrictions, the interest on the loans has been raised by about 5 rin, the present charges; ranging from sen 2.5 (9.12 per cent) to 3 sen (Li per cent). Notwithstanding there adverse conditions there have lately been increased demands for money in shipping circles, and it is waid that the Okazaki Ginko alone has lately been approached to advance altogether Y5,000,000 for over a dozen VOR- sela, another fact showing that the shipping men generally have béin severely hit by, the repeat. isane rf the Wartime Shipping Control Law
