Swatow have greatly restricted business but latest reports from there indicate a brighter cutlook and a resumption of normal business very shortly. Tisptain is closed at the moment owing, to in- sufficient water at Taku; the demand from Yangtze River Ports contintes brisk.

War Badge for Mercantile

Officers.

"I read the speeches in the House of Commons that all mercantile officers and men if incapacitated through disable- ment or illness caused by the war would be given a silver war badge. I wrote to the Board of Trade and am informed by them that these badges are not given" to men unless the disablement is caused by direct enemy action. Do you know if this be the case, because if so, I consider it very unfair. There are maný med like myself who have had to resign, command as a result of falling ill through overwork and strain caused by the war, and they are being treated by the authorities worse than the men who go out to France for a few, weeks fall ill there, and ste discharged."
