It may come as a surprise to many people (says the American correspondent of the Shanghai "Daily News") to know that the United States, with probably 120,- from 000,000 people, ranks only fifth tons among the shipbuilding nations of the world, During the past few years there has been a popular cry that America should build more ships and ran more ships, and it might appear that this country is making greater progress than she is, but when we come to examine "Pres.

Be this as it may, it is nonetheless a fact that ship- building in this country has waned to an extent that has brought about almost total disappearance, and also it is an indisputable fact that but a small proportion of the ex- port cargo from this country finds its destination in American bottoms, being carried by ships of other flags.
