LTHOUGH there is no diminution in the

number of legal practitioners, there is an

increasing desire on the part of business men to know something of "how they stand" in certain circumstances without having recourse to their solicitors. They do not, however, wish to go to the expense of costly Law books, and it is even possible some of them recognise that were they to do so, the last state would be worse than the first. What they desire is the Law laid down plainly and concisely, in volumes which are neither bulky nor expensive. This is particularly the position in Shipping affairs, where all concerned in the industry -be they Owners, Brokers, Merchants or Officers— are almost daily confronted with some legal problem or another, small perhaps in itself, but yet of importance to them.

To meet this demand the Syren & Shipping, Limited, arranged in 1907 for the issue of a series of HANDBOOKS ON SHIPPING LAW. Whilst brevity and moderate cost were two essentials aimed at, the absolute necessity of accuracy was also kept in mind, so that the inquirer who consulted the work would have no cause to fear that the information provided would lead him in the path he should not take. That these aims have been fulfilled, the success attendant on the first volumes of the series, The Law relating to Demurrage, and The Law relating to Freight, affords an ample proof.

Every care has been exercised in the preparation
