PACIFIC TRADE.

INCREASED FOREIGN COMPETITION. The possibility of the extension to .New Zealand of the Osaka Shosen Kaisha shipping service between Japan and Australia indicate* the growing tendency of foreign interests to cut into the trade which has been carried on by -New Zealand-owned steamers (writes tho "New Zealand Herald"). Tlie Dominion's traus-Pacific ond trans-Tasman services have to meet competition from foreign lines which have the advantage of more extensive itinerary. There is, iu the case' of Amorican linos, at least, the additional important benefit of State assistance in the form of loans a«d subsidies.

The analogy which can l>o drawn between shipping services and. internal industries in the matter of protection is given a practical illustration by the steps which have been taken iu the United States. Ever since tho war-time shipping boom the American .Government has given mercantile shipping most liberal help, with the object of further developing and assuring the permanency of a merchant marine adequate for tho trunsnortntion of the for<vsrn trade of that country. Tho United Stntcv Shipping Board, which had been running services at a heavy loss, sold its vessels at a fraction of their cost and .on long-deferred payment to any responsible parties who would guarantoo to run tliem and keep the flag flying. The American Subsidy. Tlie Jones-White Act. passed in May, 102fl, established a fund of £50,000,000, to be ti'sed for loan's, on very generous' terms, to shipowners desiring to build now vessels. Tho Ant also authorised the payment of mail subsidies on a mileage basis,' according to a graduated scale worked , out on tho tonnage and speed of the subsidised vessels, without any regard to the- amount of mail carried. Thus a trans-Atlantic greyhound might draw £2 10s a mile and a small cargo steamer 6s. TJow this system served as a bounty oti cargo services, in competition with foreign ■•lines using the same routes, is illustrated in the monthly cargo sorvice which has been run since tho latter part of 1928 by the Oceanic and Oriental Navigation Company, a branch of the Matson Navigation Company, between Pacific Coast ports and New Zealand. The Golden West, which arrived at Auckland from San Francisco on June 29th, brought H bags of mail. Since the service is subsidise*! at tho rate of 10s 6d a nautical mile, the owners received a subsidy of nearly £3OOO for tho voyage, representing in this instance about £4O for each bag of mail carried. So me time ago one of tlie steamers brought only two bags of -letters.
