Restoration Well on

Its Way.

"THE BRIGHTEST SPOT."

The brightest spot in the coun. try's industry at this time is shipbuilding, declared Mr. Roland K. Smith, Shipping Board Com- missioner for the Gulf section, in a message of encouragement with respect to the future of the Unit- ed States merchant marine to de- legates of the Southern Foreign' Trade Conference, in session at Houston.

Mr. Smith pointed out that the Jones-White Act has enabled private industry to launch a ship- building programme of more than fifty vessels, of more than 500,000 tons, requiring expenditure of approximately £50,000,000, dur- ing the next five years. He re called that contracts for 17 ships of the most modern type, com- parable to any in the world, cost- ing £14,000,000, already have been awarded.

"The restoration of United States' prestige on the high seas is well on its way." Mr. Smith 'said. "The costly lessons of the 'rast have been convincing that a est-class merchant mariine is in- dispensable to

.first-class nation."

After detailing figures of ex« 'ports and importa during the past decade the Shipping Board Com- missioner predicted that within a few years United States ships will be carrying the greater por- tion of the country's foreign com- I merce. By that time, he said, the newer commercial fields in South America, Africa and the Orient will be further developed.
