THE WORLD'S NON-BRITISH SHIPPING.
During the year 1921, the merchant shipping of the world, outside the United Kingdom, was, according to the annual sumULTY of the mercantile shipbuilding of the world published by Lloyd's Register, increased by 951 new vessels, totalling 2,337,976 tons. Although these figures are 1,402,893 tons higher than those for 1913, the pre-war record ship- building year, they show decrease of just over a million tons as compared with those for 1920, and of 24 millions as com- pared, with 1919. This steady decline in the output of foreign shipbuilding yards was, of course, due to the almost unprecedented stump that followed the war. There was hardly a country in the world that did not participate to some extent in the shipping
boom that occurred immediatelr after the cessation of hostilities, and this accounts for the enor- mous figures for the year 1919, but the position created way an unnatural our and economic readjustment was bound to follow,

of the engine is the recovery of heat from the waste products of combustion, sad the utilization of that heat in the engine itself for the development of power. This heat is recovered and converted into power through the medium of steam. Au engine operating on the Still system might, there- fore, be described quite accurately. internal-com-

Considers- tion of revolutions, mean effective and other factors pressure ultimately resulted in a cylinder of 22-in. diameter and 36-io. stroke being adopted as the 'most suitable. Such an engine running at a spead of 120 rpm, was estimated to give a normal b.b.p." of 350 in one cylinder at maximus efficiency, and an overload of about 400 b.h.p. Asingle-cylinder two-stroke experimental engine of this size was therefore, pro- ceeded with, the crackshaft und, bedplate being made of such dimensions as would be suitable for six cylinders of this size in Hne.
