SHIPPING NOTES 
(Continued from page 249) 
Burmeister & Wain Half-Century Jubilee 
A business jubilee of more than ordinary in¬ 
terest to Denmark is the recent celebration of 
Burmeister & Wain’s half-century activity as ship¬ 
builders and machine manufacturers. C. F. Tiet- 
gen’s name is intimately identified with this con¬ 
cern, as this great Danish captain of industry 
laid the foundation for what has become a firm of 
world wide renown. The annual business of Bur¬ 
meister & Wain amounts to 530,000,000 kroner. 
There have been paid out in dividends to stock¬ 
holders during the past fifty years 24,500,000 
kroner. 
Norway Buying Ships in Sweden 
A Norwegian syndicate represented by Goeris- 
sen & Company, Christiania, has closed a contract 
with the Brodinske Shipping Company for the pur¬ 
chase of 11 of the latter company’s ships. The 
ships are considered by Norsk Veritas as of 
the highest class. The amount of tonnage involved 
is 36,000. The purchase price is not given, but 
it is said to be sufficient to cover the claims of 
Svenska Handelsbanken in the Brodinske concern 
which recently went into liquidation. 
U. S. Shipping Board Deficit 
The report of the United States Shipping Board 
for 1921 shows a deficit of $82,419,006 for the past 
fiscal year.
