Arguments for a Minister of Shipbuliding.
Ship woers and ebipbuilders and the thinking puble all re cognise that it is absolutely essential that something should be done to speed-up" mercantile shipbuilding, so that the damage sustained by our mercantile marine be made good, writes the Journal of Commerce." We admit that the speeding up pro- cess is surrounded with difficulties and complexities. The many striking communications which we have received, afford anfficient proof thereof, but difficulties were made to be overcome, and our fear is lest the matter be allowed to become by the authorities any- ́ body's business, which is usually ncbody's business, Fence the suggestions which cur corres- pondent puts forward in the article in question deserves the closest possible atter tion. We do not for a single moment seek to imaging that his suggested Dict.tor of Merchant Ship- building would produce im- med ate relief from 'a situation.
