Passenger Tralfic Awaiting. The increase in tonnage credited to the steamship companies carry- ing on regular service; particularly where the liners are passenger steamers, is in another category. The natural development of Cana- dian shipping under present condi- tions is undoubtedly in the eld of passenger traffic, rather than cargo vessels. In the first place. Canada's crying need is for more population. particularly of the farming classes, and over in Great Britain and Europe there are hundreds of thou- sands of good settlers eager to come to this continent if only"the doors [are-not shutin their faces.

In the case of the mercantile eet built for the late Canadian Govern- ment, the cost was high, and repre- sents a hectic element in our mari- time progress. It islindeed a mystery whywconstruction of so many of these ships was__ undertaken after the armistice. Contracts were given by the Canadian Government to Canadian shipbuilders for cargo ships in January, 1919. on a price basis of $200 a ton, at a time when the Canadian Pacific was being of- fered by the British Ministry of Shipping any number" of cargo ships. well adapted to the requirements of Canadian trade, at $100~a ton. and actually purchased two at that price. Now the experience of Cana- dim shin-owners has been that cargo ships are a speculative invest- mem uiisess they are operated as supplementary to a regular service of combined passenger and cargo steamers. when they may come in useful as an adjunct to regular liners when more business than usual is offered. rm.- n _____ ----A --._._- ..A-__--_- ODLBIIICO.

In 1906 the Empress of. Britain and Empress of Ireland were added to the Atlanilr 1'. et. In 1913 the Pacific service was strengthened `v the Empress Riissia and Em nre-ss of Asia. Two steamers of the.- one Cabin" type. the Metagamz; and the Missanabie, were added in- 1914, followed in 1977 and 1918 by the Melita "and the Minnedosa, but the chief increase was due to the taking over of the Allan Line fleet- of 18 steamshios. The year 1922. will see the addition of several ne passenger `steamers for both At- lantic and Pacific service. the Em-- press of Scotland (24,584 tons),. which will be the largest vessel _in the Canadian trade; the Empress of Canada (22,000 tonsl. built for. tho_ Pacific service: the Empress of Au: tralia (19,300 tons); the Empress` of India (17,052 tons). and the Montcalm, Montclare. and Menu rose. each of 16,000 tons.
