Cirourisichèba, says the oil ex- Ipart of the Merchant Shipping Rancis appear to be working with an inevitableness which it.is impossible to (disregard towards the substitution of all for coal. The adoption of oil is merely a policy of salvation. This is due not only to the material difficulty of securing adequate supplies of coal, but to the fact that the econ amies capable of being affected by the use of the alternative fuel are more essential and vital to the conditions of the present than at any period of the Industrial bir- [tory of the nation. The last ten years or so, when one takes a survey of the matter, appear to have baësi ongs of definite prepar- stion for the great reversal of policy: Eva Nature unconso¡qual to have contributed her share in the direction of pro-

The ons point on which shipowners have ans doubt is that of continued and adequate supplies. There were prophets who foretold the early exhaustion of the coal supplies of the world; there are prophets who cry aloud the coming restric tion of oil supplies. Yet taking the whole earth over, the oilfields now in production form small proportion of the earth's capabili- ties in this respect. Asked to
the continuance of oil supplica,| one finds that the doubter has no argument available. Ask a mao who has studied this aspect of the subject closely, and he will point to very large areas known to be oil-producing which are as get "untouched. At the same time, the existing producing fields are expanding their output, and extending their boundaries. LIVERPOOL WATER CHARGES.
