* THE MERCHANT SHIPBUILDING
FROBLEM:
We have repeatedly called attention in these, columns to the vital city for the maximum output of merchant ships,`; Ith for present needs and for the ra catabllahiment of trade at the earliest possible, moment after the cessation of hostilities, but in view of the present position of affairs we make no apology for | syain calling - attention to the necessities et the situation. The bald facts of the eitnation at the present time are: (a) Great Britain as the largest ship-owing and shipbuilding nation in the world has... already lost about one-fifth of the total mercantile tonnage which it possessed in 2014,
the rate of loss of tourage till exceeds the rate of replacement, that "is the rate of prapletion of new ships. fel. While the merchant tonnage of Great Britain is steadily decreasing that of foreign; countries, potably America, Japan and, the Scandinavian countries is steadily increasing. All three-factors are of the utunost importance to the Nationť nad Po the Empire, not only at the present time but in the future, and the remedy for each is to be found in an accelerated out...
put of tonnage from the yards and engine shops, pfibis Country The control all shipping in this country by the Gov. ornment has naturally raised many ques." tions of the greatest importance to ship- owners, and while the future prospects from the shipowners' point of view may be charged with grave uncertainty, oving to the possibility of continued Govern mental control, the main consideration at the present moment is the necessity for a large increased output of tornage and the immediate adoption of all means to that ead. Much has rectly been written on, the subject of the American shipbuilding effort, and, while the aver age shipbuilder in this country is spt to look with something, akin to contempt upon the competition of foreign countries," it is only comate sense to examine the achievements of these ecuntries, with " á view to the adoption of ary good points revealed. As regards the American effort the information available is too seanty to assess the relative merits of British, and American shipbuilding from many most. important points of view, but the broadl fact of the enormous production of ton. noge from the American yards, and the disappointing output of our own yards. stands out too prominently to be ignored.
The American achievement is in itself; most remarkable and worthy the most serious consideration of our shipbuilders and engineers, for it must be remember. od that the industry 15, comparatively speaking, in its infancy, the huge plent indelved - having been very - largely Isid down and the army of operatives trained during the last three years. The out- landing points in connection with the American effort may be summarised thus (a) farge size of plant operated (b), fabrication very extensively adopted; (c)
Sicilities of latest design and of smple installation of power plane and transport.

shipyard methods; (e) staffing of yards, ele with managers and foremen who are not practical shipbuilders: (1) erdh siasm. of all ranką df workers in attaining maximum outpat.— Engindering."
