The Company has also been contemplating inaugurating & service to Genoa, which scheme bas now materialised. Bioce January last the Kulara Com- pany has been operating four steamers, the Eidai-mara, Togo- mīru „Jintsu-marn, and Harima-“ marn,-under contract with the Italian Government. It is rem ported that the Osaka Shosen Kaisha has now taken over these" steamers and will maintain sa monthly service between Bambay and Genoe. Japan cargo for the Italian port is to be transhipped at Bombay.
American Shipping Shortage.
Figures showing an acute sbortage of shipping have been compiled by the executive board of the National Patriotic Socle- ties as part of a campaign to win public support for an extensive programme of ship construction, According to these figures, the. present shortage is 2,135,894 tons; gross almost 1,500 verse's of 5,000 gross tons each. It is de“. clared that the lotil tonnage usable by the United States and its allies to-day is 4,435,894 gross. tons less than it was in the fäll of 1914. These figures take ac= count of tonnage built and sub- trict the amount lost through submarine activities. It was estimated that to this shortage must be added 3,000,000 tons as the minimum nec ssary for the United States to transport and maintain 1,500,000 men in the warzane. Estimates were that ̄†2,000, 00 tons will be the maxi- mum of building to be expected from Great Britain in 1912 and revised prediction are that the United States. may not exceed 3,000,003 tons this year. This gives a probable additional ton nage of 5.000,00). It was pointed out, however, that the destruction, of vessels during the first year of unrestrited submarine war- fare was between 6,9 0,000 and 7,000,000 tons. A plan under which shipbuilding labour assum- es resp naibiity for turning out i 5,000,000 tons of wooden shipping during the orming year was sub-
