From the age of fifteen Peter was keenly interested in the Labor movement. He helped Scottish plowmen to organize their unions, and large- seale farmers of the district were pleased to see him go when he left: for London as a carpenter's ap- nrentitce. When he reached New Zealand he joined the Auckland Socialist waft-y.

At, t. e end o! 1939 the deposits of the ten leading British banks amounted to £2,389,- 200900, compared with £2,228,903,- 000 at the end of the previous year. The ratio of the llquld assets ot these banks to deposits was 36.8 per cent on the last. day of I939, compared with 32.8 per cent. tn 1938. There are thus ample funds available for the financing of the BIIIUSII gar effofit, while tn}: Tine o tihe Epogl gurea ernp asses that London continues to maintain its position as the world's leading financial centre. In shipping. as In finance. Great Britain still retains her premier o- sltlon in the world. Slnce the - ginning of the war no less than 50,000,000 tons o! shipping have been cleaned at British ports. More- over, 1n six months o! war Great Brltaln has lost. only 200,000 tons o! merchant shipping out of a total of 21,000,000 tons. ‘Phat ls the net result; 01 the German air and submarinne campaign against Briti- lsh shipping, when replacements tn British shipping are set, of! against gross ‘sinkiizgs. In shipbuilding, a vast scheme ls now tn operation for making good the wastage of enemy slnklnzs and of ordlniiiy wear-atid-tear. In first. quarter o! 1939, 70,000 tons of new British shipping was laid down, and in the second quarter of that year 400,000 tons. But, since the out-break of war. more than 1,000,000 tons have been placed un- det- construction. and the capacity o! British shipyards has been de- veloped enormously. ‘To-day It ls about 2,000,000 tom. which ls nearly ttitlce as much as It. was six months ago. The future developments of the British merchant fleet have been closely co-ordltiated with the con- struction requirements of the Brtt- lsh Navy under a system of care- ful plamitxig which takes account: of shipyard capacity and the supply o: raw materials and labour. ‘The Admiralty and the Ministry ol’ Slilp- ping combine to work out this plttn and the new merchant ships will become the property of the BMW?- Buildlng berths are fully occupied and ‘aunchlngs are increasing week by week.
