NOTICE TO SHIPPING COMPANIES,
A QUESTIONABLE ACTION
BY CABLE—PBES3 ASSOCIATION—COPYBIGHT
Received Jan. 3, 12.55 p.m I CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 2. Basing their action on the Treaty of Lausanne, the Turkish authorities have notified foreign shipping companies that all loading operations, customs formalities, and pilotage must be performed by Moslem Turks, and no Europeans will be allowed aboard steamers in port in connection with these services. The foreign shipping agents are discussing the situation. Pilotage affects the safety of ships in Turkish waters, and .the supply of Turkish pilots is inadequate and the quality leaves much to be desired.—Reuter.
