THE EXPORT OF MOTORSHIPS.
Competition From Abroad.
During the two years 1930-1931 the value of motor ships' built in Britain for forelyn ownership was approximately £12,000,000 ster- ling. There is no reason why this figure should not be equalled or 20th May exceeded in the future. It is true:
that tankers represented a fair pro- portion of the tonnage involved, but tankers will again be required short- jly, and British yards are well laid. out to build similar vessels of this class rapidly and at a competitive 24th Apr. price.
1st May
There are better prospects of for- feign motor tonnage than of steam 10th May tonnage being ordered in Britain, 5th May for the reason that the owners mont Hkely to contract with British yards are Norwegian, who have entirely abandoned steam machinery except for vessels of 2,000 tons gross and under,, But British yarda and engine works must face the competition for these orders abroad, (Continued at foot of Column 1.).
