'ADVANCE OF MOTORSHIPS “

An analysis published in "The Motor Ship" recently illustrates the manner in which the motorship has, overtaken the steamer. Be tween 1923 and 1928 the motor tonnage afloat increased by nearly 8,800,000 tons gross, and the steam-

er tonnage diminished by 860,000 tons gross. Five years ago only 19 per cent of the tonnage of ships being built throughout the' world was to be equipped with oll engines, but the figure to-day is 58 per cent -the highest yet recorded.
