arger amount of steel steam tonnage Whole of the increase is due to the launched during the year, which
reached about 1,431,000 tons more than during 1918. The wood tonnage, on the other hand, has decreased by nearly 415.000 tons, and is under 13 per cent. of the salat output of the United States as compared with over 31 per cent for 1915.
A remarkable increase has taken place in the tonnage faunched on the Atlantic coast, which has reached 1,973,755 ans, or 1.020,000 tons more than the output of last year. The tornage launched on the Great Lakes is 495,359 tons, about 64,000 tons more than in 1918, and all of which consists of steel steamers in- tended for seagoing purposes.

Sixty steamers for the carriage of oil in bulk were launch. ed with a tonnage of about 370.000 tons; 49 of these vessels of 325,000 tons were built on the Isherwood sys-- tem of longitudinal framing. and in addition 115 other vessels of about 714.000 tons were also built on this system.
The total figures comprise 137 steamers, each of between 5,000 and 6,000 tons; 251 of between 6.000 and 10,000 tons and five vessels of These ves- over 10,000 tons each. sels-the largest launched abroad during the year are three turbine steamers of about 15,000 tons each launched by the New York Shipbuild- ing Corporation at Camden, NJ.. and two turbine steamers of 10.798 tons each, by the Bethlehem Ship- building Corporation. at Quincy, Mass.
The number of wood vessels of over 2,000 tons each launched during the year amounted to 168, of which 103 are steamers, and the others sail- ing barges. It may be stated that a number of the" lafter were intended to be fitted with engines but have been completed as barges. The largest wood steamers launched were two. bath of 3.543 tons, built at Orange, Tex, and the largest sailing barges four, of about 3,300 tons each, launch- ed in the State of Washington.'
