Kawasaki Dockyard Co.
The uncertainty of the steel supply, caused by the recent trade restrictions by bel igerent countries. has induced the Kawasaki Dockyard Company of Kobe to change its plans to construct eighteen stock boats with a combined tonnage of 174,000 tons, including four freighters of 12,000 tons each and several 9,0 10-ton boats. The new plan drawn up as a result of the failure to obtain enough materials consists in constructing twelve boats, two of 12,0 0 tons and ten 9, 00 tons Seven of the latter ves-els have already been sold to a British firm through the com- pany's agents in London for delivery in August. The rest will be built during the latter months of the year, to be completed by January next year and have been sold to a British owner for Y.420 per ton deadweight.
