japanese Shipping
Trust Is Created
New Movement Launched to
Bring About Economies i'm
Cost of Operation

Japanese steamship companies have
formed a trust to bring about econ
on,ies in operation and to meet the
existing depression in marine trans
portation. according to the Toxic cor
respondent Of the "Nieuwe Roster-
damsche CourantD The main points
in the program of the trust are: I) se-
curing loans to surmount present diff
culties, (2) the establishments of com
munities Of interest in the sense that
ships which cover the same routes are
to share profits and losses proportions
ately and avoid competition.
The trust proposes to eliminate the
services of middlemen in buying coal
and to obtain supplies direct from the
pits. Should these efforts prove to be
unsuccessful, the companies in the
trust will be compelled to tie up a
large number of ships, estimated at
4 ,OOO, 900 tons.

Dollar Says Center of
Trade Swings to Orient
Veteran Steamship Man Sees
Complete Change Within
the Next Generation

Within the lifetime Of the younger
generation Of shipping men the center
Of world commerce will swing from the
Atlantic Ocean. to the, Pacific, Captain
Robert Dollar, the veteran steamship
owner, declared recently in an address
at Seattle, before meeting Of the
China Club.
perhaps I shall not live to see this
change" said Captain Dollar, who is
seventy-eight years old, "but you young
men will see it and we should all Of
US be up and doing in order to take
advantage Of it,"
In explaining the enormous growth
of trade with China the speaker cited
the increase in the population of
Shanghai from 100000 twenty-five
years ago to 100000 to-day.
"The surface has barely been
scratched" he said. eve commercial
men must follow in the wake of evan
gelists, and there is much work to be
done before extensive development Of
our trade with China can be carried
out"

French Passenger 4
And Freight Ship
Business Receivers
Depression of Last Year
Gives Way TO Trade Re-
vival; Cotton Shipments
Are Coming I'm Slowly

PARIS. Nov. 5.--The shipping situa-
tion shows large increase In both
freight and passengers arriving in
France over the corresponding period
OF last year. 1Thfs is due to the partial
crop failure Of 1921, which forced the
country TO purchase large supplies Of
grain in the United States and Argen-
tina. Shipments are now pouring into
Marseilles in a steady stream, al
though the prices range about 40
francs ton above the local figures.
Added to this traffic, ali of the raw ma
teriais, which France has been com
pelled to buy in foreign markets, are
now arriving in Marseilles, Havre and
Bordeaux.
Among the vessels may be numbered
those bearing coffee from Brazil and
Madagascar, and others bringing rubber
from South America and the Congo.
Cotton is arriving slowly at Havre, at
the rate OF 1000 tons week. Approx
'fiately 100000 tons have been re-
ceived. of which $4,000 tons came from
the United States. Shipments of cot
ceding year, due to the rapid improve
ment in the textile industry. The
usual shipments of silk from American
and Japanese ports are suspended,
awaiting an improvement in exchange,
but Chinese silk is coming in as re-
suit of the lower exchange there.
Vessels are now leaving France
fairly empty, but this will be changed
in the early spring when raw materials
now arriving will be manufactured and
ready. to ship to all parts of the world,
especially to the French colonies.
Passenger traffic shows decrease
from the summer tourist season, but
more autumn arrivals are recorded
than at any time since the war. This
is said to be due to the worldwide in
crease in business resulting from gen.
eral prosperity. The industrial crisis
last year was marked by the arrival of
many empty ships In French ports, but
now all French winter resorts are al
ready crowded and trains southwark
are packed. Liners sailing from France
now carry few passengers until the
Christmas season, when there will be
a general exodus of tourists to reach
home before the holidays and passage
will be difficult to obtain.

 Having in mind these results Of the extreme interpretation Of the pro hihition amendment contained In the Nolstea1 act, as well as inc enormous expense of the attempt 10 enforce that unenforceah'e legislation, it Is our conclusion that the act Is an im- proper interpretation of tho prohibi- ton amendment. that it is a social and n moral failure, and that it is a dangerous breeder of discomfort and of contempt for ali law
 something of the economic effect considering the fact that in 1918. ac- cording to govt statistics. $l10,- 000, 000 worth of farm products were consumed by breweries. and that the transportation of these products to the manufacturer and thence to the consumer ncccssitated the use of 1884, 666 railroad cars. In addition to this, breweries in operation in 1918 con stunned 80. .0nO carloads Of coal It must be obvious that the total eco homie effect of the destruction of this industry is tremendous.

 "The American Federation of La bor always has been the advocate Of law and order and always has en- deavored to create conditions which would make possible the highest type of citizenship.
 We do not protest against the amendment to the consti- tuition. which now is a part of the law of the land. We do not protest against the principle es- tablished by the eighteenth amend ment It is our contention that the eighteenth amendment, under a req sonable and proper legislative inter pretation, would be beneficial to our
