"See To Your Ships.

Hy advice to those who are considering the question of trade after the war,” said Mr. Du - Plessis Ciappiri, Trades Commis“ sioner for the Union of S. Africa, in a lecture at the Royal Society [of Arts recently "is see to your shipping. It is the man who sends the ship who will at the. goods." The need for shipping would be such that the question of the "Flag" would not stand; in the way of the goods which muat be shippet. Therefore, if we wanted "trade with and in the Empire" we must help each other to provide British ships for the Empire's sea routes, and we must do that soon. Viscount Gladstone, who presided, described himself as an inveterate optimist în 10- spect of the future of 8. Africa, Even if the gold mines gave out, he would not be apprehensive, for the 203,000 men employed in them would then turn to in- dustries which would build up the) future of the country on greater and safer lines, "The longer you live in South Africa," he said, "the fonder you get of it.”

In view of the great improve- ment which has taken place in the rapid clearance of ships since the formation of the Trai sport Workers' Battalions the Select Committee on National Expend- iture in a report issued recent strongly urge that more men be made availadle for this important work. The Committes point out the importance of discharging in the tonnage problem, and saY they had been much impressed with the work done by the Trana- port Battalions.
