TRAVEL TO AMERICA
DECREASED IN 1921
Almost Negligible Influx OF
Aliens ShoUn.

Figures compiled by experts in the
steamship business and made public yes
terday show that first class travel to the
United State last year showed decrease
OF 1876 compared with 1920. and that
eastbound first cabin voyagers of last
year outnumbered those Of 1920 by 1921.
Second class travellers to this country
were 21,67S more than in 1920, and the
number eastward in this class was less
than in 1920.
In 1921 397,5S0 aliens arrived in all
ports of the United States. while 317. .41S
departed therefrom, leaving balance OF
S0.162 immigrants. In 1913, the year
before the war. 1.141,s45 third class pas
sengers arrived and 399.733 departed.
leaving 742.112. With the revival of
passenger traffic in 1920 4S3.394 third
class passengers entered the country and
304,497 went out, leaving 17S.ss7 here.
mostly aliens.
The statistician concludes: 'It would
appear that the three per cent. law had
been effective in carrying out the deci-
sion Of Congress to place n bar against
unlimited immigration from the war
torn countries of Europe. as the net I'M
migration for the year 1921 appears to
be negligible"

PRIVATE LINES GET
CARGOES FOR RUSSIA
Priority to American Owners
Who Quote Fair Rates,
Says Commission.

The Shipping Board has undertaken
TO carry Russian relief supplies at cost,
but priority will be given to American
private ship owners so long as they
VIII quote fair rates. 1t was announced
last night by the Purchasing Commits
sion for Russian Relief. 42 Broadway.
The commission had been informed that
this conclusion was reached at con-
ference with President Harding in
Washington by Herbert Hoover. chair
man of the commission. and A. d.
Lasker. chairman Of the Shipping
Board.
1T was considered that $3.50 a ton
or so above the going rate was im-
posed on American shipping by higher
operating costs and that approximately
this figure should be used as entering
into or determining fair rates for pri-
vate American shipping the announce
1nent said. THE cooperation OF the
majority of American ship owners has
been assured"
1t was learned yesterday that volumi-
nous data had been forwarded to
Washington by several of the ship own
ers at the request of Mr.. Hoover. Com
parative operating costs were thor
oughly covered. Although the commits
sion did not state that the $3.50 differ
entail applied TO Black Sea or Baltic
business, it was understood that the
Baltic rate was under consideration.
The ''going commercial rate" to the
Baltic from Atlantic ports was figured
as approximately $3.50 ton, on which
basis $3.50 was regarded as a fair rate
for American ships.
There was some doubt as to whether
all the thirty ships allocated by the
Shipping Board for Russian relief would
be used by the commission in the event
the conditions were satisfied by private
ship owners. 1t was said. however.
that even if large proportion of gov
ernmental tonnage was accepted there
still would be plenty of business left

REVIVAL REPORTED
IN ORIENTAL TRADE
Rates and Ships on Increase
Booking for March and
April.

The outstanding feature of the ocean
freight markets is the current revival in
Oriental trade. Although operators OF
lines to Europe and some of the other
markets are able to report sporadically
slight increase in business 1t has not
yet been sufficient to affect the indices
Of shipping conditions that are regarded
as most significant-freight rates and
number of ships in service. Indubitable
evidence of the boom In trans-Pacific
trade, however. is given in advices from
Seattle
During the last month rates on lum-
ber to the Orient have shown advances
of so cents to 81 per thousand feet. maxi
ing present rates on small squares $3.50
to Sic and on large squares from S16.50
to $3.50. The demand from Japan is
of the most urgent character and the
various lines are now having no diff
Guilty in booking all available space.
Independent operators have chartered
considerable tramp tonnage to care for
the surplus offerings. Space neverthe-
less remains scarce and bookings are
being made already for March and April.
During the last week in December &c.
600, 600 feet of lumber left Seattle by the
water route. or this $4,000, 900 moved in
coastwise and intercoastal vessels and
100000 went overseas Because the
present rate is Sc ton for flour to
the Orient steamships lines prefer to
accept lumber. and this is expected to
advance the flour rate.
Ships scheduled to sail from Seattle
for the Far East during January num-
bered thirty-one of total of 100000
deadwelght tons as compared with
twelve in January, 1921. The Blue Fun
mel Line of Liverpool has ordered four
steamships into a service to Pacific coast
ports. giving the coast another regular
connection with Great Britain and
Europe. One of the vessels, the Hector,
is equipped with 1900 tons OF refriger-
ator space for apples and other perish
ables of the Northwest. In the Seattle
Oriental routes the line Is maintaining
service with four freighters, one vessel
more than year ago.
In view of the fact that the Oriental
trades were the first to feel the effects
of the depression\ which afterward be-
came worldwide, shipping men regard
the current revival as a good omen for
their business In other trades. 1t would
be natural to expect, they say, that a
general betterment in conditions would
first become evident in the part of the
world that first felt the depression.
