Despite this situation there was an Increase In the net qperating canal revenue, the total for the year being placed at approximately $3,450,000, an increase of about $750,000 over the total the year before. This was brought aBout, the report says, by a material reduction in operating ex- penses Auxillary business operations not B0 successful, however. The canal business operations, {including mechanical shops, material storehous- es and fuel oll plants, showed a profit of $323,269 a9 against $664,211 the year before, while the Panama Ralil- road company showed a losst of $710,- 301 as compared with a profit of $88,- 282 in 1921, Many Vesels Through Canal The number of ves: passing through the:canal during the fiscal year was 2,736 as compared with 2,- 832 the year before, but the net ton- nage was slightly greater, denoting of course an increase in the average size of vessels using the waterway. Cargo pasing through the canal was 10,884,910,,0r 93.8 per cent of the are BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, total handled in the previous year “The greatest shrinkage was in the trude with the west coadt of Houth America,” he report says. “Exports from the Atlantic and Gulf ports ot the United States to that reglon fell from 938,261 to 244,614 ton.

United Btates were 548,609 tons, as compared with 976,697 in 1921 and to Europe 663,127 as compared with Crude oll shipments from Mexica to Bouth America fell off from 664,659 to 266,662 tons. The total loss of carge” in this South American trade was 1,786,666 tons. “Nitrate shipments from Chile were less by 1,069,796 tons and this together with the curtalled purchas- ing power resulting from the col- lapse of the nitrate Industry, ls suf- ficlent to account in large part for the whole shrinkage in South American business. “A serlous as this slump in South American business has been its econ- omlc causes are temporary. Indica- tions of a partial recovery in the South American trade were precept- ible at the close of the year.

A, A, Blames Him-for Many Accidents ‘Washington, Nov, 28.—Blame for the greatest number of street ana road accidents in which automobiles and rpedestriang figure, is placed upon the shoulders of the “jay-walker,” by M.

The public is entirely too ready erican led the list as heretofore with ' crease in tonnage as compared to the | | to hlame the driver, Mr. Eldridge de- | clares, the first cry that goes up, as a rule, when such an accident occurs, lln that the driver was at fault, when as & matter of fact, in a large majort ity of cases the person injured was to blame. Explaining a chart summary of traffic accidents in New York city, in which the fault or incapacity of the proper party is shown, Mr. Eldridge declared that while almost 50 per cent of the causes of accidents are unknown, the blame in the cases where the fault was determined was overwhelmingly, placed on the injured one, “Over a certain period of time in Which 7,327 accident, involving priv- ate automobiles, occurred, thegpolice department of New York eity found by thorough investigation that in 450 cases the driver of the car was to blame,” he continued. "In 3,168 cases the person injured was to blame, and in 3,683 cases the cause] With blame of the accident was unknown. the heavy prponderance of placed on the person injured in the! known causes of accidents, it is but fair to presume that the injured per- son was to blame in more than .60 per cent of the remaining 3,683 cases. f ITCHING ECZEMA - DRIED RIGHT UP WITH SULPHUR Any breaking oyt of the skin, even fiery, itching eczetha, can be quickly overcome by applying a little Mentho- Sulphur, gays @ noted skin specialist.
