British Shipping.

The movement in England against Government control of shipping is becoming very strong. There is one matter, however, on which it is held that Government control might be exercised. In a report issued by the Association of Chambers of Commerce it is stated: "There is reason to be- lieve that good might result shipping bodies were to take com. mofground with Chambers of Commerce that British shipping should not enter into rings with- out the approval of the Govera ment. If this course were. adopted the responsibility would then rest upon the Cabinet of the day, and shipowners would bə relieved of the invidious position in which pre-war results of the conference aystem have placed them."

Japanese. Seamen's Pay.

About 250 seamen from ships privately owned held a meeting at the lakamichi Theatre, Minato-machi, dyego, cp. the 24th ultimo, with the object urging their employers to increas their wages. It is said that the wages of ordinary seamen have rever been increased since the outbreak of the war, their highest pay being not more than 30 per.. month. Some of the seameny present demanded that their wages should" be raised to over. Y60 while others put the mini- mum st Y100, After mush discussion the meeting passed a resolution to the effect that the present wages should be doubled, and elected a committee of li to take stepe -necessary to get the resolution realised."
