Simultaneously with the scheme now be- ing submitted to the French Budget: Com- mities by M. Lookroy for the expenditure of a sum of eight millious sterling needs of the Fraich navy, the aumoimee ment is made that a Cozamission is to be constituted with the object of thoroughly investigating the condition of the merchant marine, which is admittedly in a very bad way. Whatever may be thought of the former proposal, the nacosity of the latter saufticiontly apparent. During the last bon years French shipping has steadily declin-kong, ed, and from being second on the list, after Great Britain, Franco hus DOW fallen far behind. She ranks but fourth as regards steam power: England coming first, then Gerinany, and then Norway, NORTH BRITISH AND MERCANTILE Although fourth also in the number of her sailing vessels, her sailing tonnago in ox- traordinarily low. Great Britain firat agraire, with 3,997,095 tons; the United States Accond, with 1,358,487 to; Norway third, with 1,178,174 tons; Germany fourth, with 566,073 tona, Italy fifth, with 472,000 tona; Ruskin sixth, with 365,046 tons; Sweden seventh, with 285,615 Lous; and fully Frano with 252,040 tona, being rub pretty close by Greece, with 240,190 ton, and Turkey, with 241,976 tons.
It is not to be wondered at that such a
deplorable state of uftairs should seriously alarm all thinking French politicians, and sko rocent report of M. Charles Roux has length oposed the eyes of his contrymon to the startling decay of their shipping power. The reasons of so disastrous change from 1985--in ten short yours-aro When Does not far to seek, and although they appear to be due to numerous and distinct causes, they can nevertheless b
