"UNION-CASTLE DIVIDEND,

For the year 1917, the dividend of the, Union Castle Mail Steamship Co., Ltd., London, is 8 per cent., same as for 1010., The Union Castle Co. is one of the com-- ponents of the Royal Mail Eldar Derúpiter group, controlled by Sir Owen Phillips and Lord Pitrie. This is the group which is spoken of as likely to obtain the White Star and Leyland Lines, when the fater national Mercantile Marine Co. gives up control ofits British subsidiaries.

U.S. SHIPPING OUTPUT.

Amerion had only just begun to bulld ships." This is the kayicts of statements addressed to the shipbuilders and ship- workers of the nation by Me, Hurley, Chairman of the Shipping Board, and. Mr. Schwab, Diecetor-General of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. They point out that only one-sixth of the work" planned has been accomplished, and thes 12,500,000.thes remain to be built to

meet the needs of peace, and American calamerce. Mr. Schwab says, that the säipsards of the country should be kept going to their full especity.

Inefficient plants which have been per ndtied to operate because of the war emergency 'will, as a matter of business- expediency. drop out when the emer gency is removed, but efficient yards will. be encouraged and supported, because wɛ can depend upon them to fall their pro- mises and produce ships economically. We look to the West coast to contintie the pace it set, and to the yards of the East and South and the Great Lakes region to increase thei-output, o

CONCRETE SKIPS.

No doubt existed that concrete ships would function properly during the period, at least, when it was necessary to rush soldiers munitions and supplies to Europe. The question, though, new ' raised.. How long mag we expect a senerete ship to last?"

That was naturally one of the first questions asked by the men who world be responsible for the inauguration of the concrets shipbykling programine. The opinion of experts not only was songht, bab bureaus of Govertimental depertinents were requested to make texts and report on the feasibility of the whole project. The consensus of opinion and the results of experiments seemed to raerad the conclusion that, & concrete vessel. properly constructed, should last for at least several years,
