JAPAN GETS BUSY
GRABBING At
TONNAGE

Numerous orders for the construc-
ton of new cargo and passenger
steamers have recently been placed
with Japanese shipbuilders. according
to the Manila Cable-News American.
which has this to say concerning ship
building in the Fiowery Kingdom:
Japan shipbuilders have recently
received numerous orders for the con-
struction of new cargo and passenger
steamers, as the view is held in the
Far East that after the war there will
be considerable demand for tonnage.
1T is said that some British own
ers have been making inquiries as to
whether Japanese shipyards are will
ing to accept orders and asking for
particulars as to prices and dates Of
delivery.
The Nippon Yusen Kaisha. which
recently ordered nine large steamers
from the Kawasaki dockyard OF Kobe
and the Mitsu Bishi shipyard at Maya
saki for their European service, have
just decided to build seven cargo
steamers OF 400 tons each and five
passenger and cargo steamers Of 800
tons each to be run on the coastwise
and Asiatic trade routes.

AUSTRALIA BUYS
FREELY FROM
JAP ANESE

More than 40 ships are now in
service In the Japan-Australia trade
and the demand is 50 great that even
more are needed, according to the ia
pan Advertiser Of Toxic. This paper
in an article relative to the unprece-
dented demand for freighters on this
run. says in part:
The Itsukushima Maru 1882 tons)
has now been placed on the Austria
liam run. The vessel has been char
tered at the rate Of $4,000 yen for the
round trip. In addition it is expected
that the Wada Maru will shortly be
chartered for the same purpose.
This would bring the fleet Of extra
ships on this route up to IL vessels
in all. 1t is reported that the Austria
liam trade is the briskest of all, the
scarcity of hold space being continual
ly felt. The cargo for Australia com
prises so per cent Of wheat and ce-
ment, phcsphates for fertilizers,
matches and other piece goods max
ing up the remainder.
Since the end Of May. in spite OF
the extra boats put on this service by
the N. Y. K, space available has moth
ing like met the demands In fact no
such boom has ever been experienced
in the annals of Japanese shipping.
The amount of goods exported up to
date by these extra ships alone
amounts to 100000 tons, also a rec
ord for the Experimentation trade for
such short period.
Judged from the present conditions
of the trade, the boom is expected
to last for the latter half of the year.
The N. Y. K. formerly maintained
three vessels on this service, the Nix
ko Maru, Hitachi Maru and Tango
Maru, but In view of the growing de-
mand for bottoms, the same company
added some time ago the Totomi Maru
and Tientsin Maru.
Nov more vessels will shortly be
taken Off other N. Y. K services to
be added to this route. At the same
time coastwise shipping has recently
been active as the busy season has
Just set in. Great activity is notice
able in shipments of lumber from the
HOkkaido and Kamchatska trade in
fish manure is active Just at present
and freighters are IN great demand in
that direction.

RUSSIAN SUGAR SITUATION.

The director of the Kieff Excise De-
partment states that the amount Of
fine sugar (sand sugar. at the sugar
factories of the Kien district at ores
ent exceeds the quantity owned by
these factories in the previous year
by 100000 Foods 100000 short tons1,
There arc about 13.C00,100 pools
(235,000 short tons) of fine sugar in
the Province of Kieff. The reason
why this sugar was not placed on the
market was the scarcity of cars; but
according to information received BIZ
the excise department this obstacle is
now removed, and sugar will be placed
on the market in sufficient quantities
The high prices on sugar are caused
by the increased cost of production
the scarcity of fuel and of labor, the
highscost of some OF the material, and
the difficulty OF transportation,
The prices are also considerably in
fiuenced by the unavoidable prospects
for the future production of sugar, the
uncertainty of this seasons crop, and
the probably difficulty in securing the
required material. The manufactur
ers who possess a supply Of sugar are
unwilling to place it On the Uar'iet
as they expect to realize better prices
in the future. - I:

CAUSED
OUR FALL, NOT
ADAM And EVE
So Runs Story as Ted Of, SUI
merriam Tablet Written Be-
fore Days of Abraham

PHILADELPHIA was not Adam
and Eve who brought about the fail
Of man, but Noah, according to a
translation of a tablet now In the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania museum. An
announcement to this effect was made
today by representative of the mu-
scum.
According to the Sumerian theoi-
ogy found on the tablet, which is said
to have been written before the days
of Abraham, and translated by DR.. Ste
ven Langdon. professor of Assyriology
in Oxford university, England, Noah
was ordered not to eat of the cassia
tree in the Garden of Paradise. and
when he disobeyed the curse fell up
on him.
DR.. Iangdon, according to the an
nouncemert, says that this tablet Is
at least 1000 years older than the Gen
esis account, and so far as is known,
is the oldest record of the sort in ex
istence. The tablet was written more
than 1890 years ago, possibly 5G9e=
years, and evidently records tradf
ton which goes back to the early his
tory of man.
The Babylonian and Sumerian &C
counts place the flood at something
like 5000 3. c., and the lapse of time
between the creation and the food is
filed by 1C kings. who reigned alto
gether 1872. 900 years. The reason that
later kings reigned comparatively
short periods is that Noah sinned in
eating of the cassia tree.
