THE SHIPPING OUTLOOK.
STATEMENT-(BY MMETERV f* ' —___ '^f By Telegraph.—Press Association. i Wellington, Referring to shipping prospects, thetMinister in charge of Imperial Sttppliea. said to-day that up till the end of Eep» tember we shall probably be able to clear out of the cold stows .between" 700,000 and 800,000 freight carcases of meat. This will relieve the situation considerably, and by the end. of December it is hoped there will be available for removal of more frozen meat 5,800,000 cubic feet of insulated space on outward steamers. Nothing definite can. be said about the coming year, but the prospects are, that'the space available for frozen produce from Australasia will *be 2<5 million cubic feet for the year. This should mean that New Zealand, with its production, should get about half of the space. If these prospects materialise, we shad be left at the end of next yeaT in a very little worse position than that in which we find ourselves at present.
