Australia Has One, Too.
The Australian navigation act passed
by the federal parliament has been re-
served for the Kings signature. As
sent may be refused, or it may be de.
ferred.
The measure as it stands contains
drastic provisions in regard to the Aus.
tralian trade. Notably, the English
mail steamers are considerably affect
ed, as the measure has been designed
to bling them under local conditions
when they are in Australian waters;
and foreign and subsidized vessels are
excluded from coastal trade altogether.
That is to say, the p. g. o. Co., will
have to pay its lascars the rates ruling
in the commonwealth from the time
the vessels arrive at Fremantle till
they leave that port again on the re.
turn voyage.
The clauses relating to the coastal
trade enjoin that licenses must be OBJ.
tanned in order that passengers or cargo
may be carried 10 and from Interstate
ports. The foreign passenger liners are
dealt with by clause which says that
ship shall not engage in the eoasting
trade which is receiving, or for the
preceding II months has received di-
rcctly or indirectly, ''subsidy or bon.
