of Leith,

Messrs H. Robb,, Ltd., state that notwithstanding the depres sion in shiprepairing during the past year their repair department was kept fairly well employed. They carried out repaire en a large number of vessels during 1928, including some very exton- sive damage repairs, also vessels for survey and overhaul, including- "Netta," survey and repairs; "New Georgia." Foreland," "Scotscraig," and "Ellind, survey; "Colinton," "Glitra," "Strathfiilan," and "Newbigging," aur-

Other important contracts included the overhaul to the Trinity House steamer "Argus" and the overhaul and repairs to H.M. floating dock stationed at Rosyth, which was dry-docked in the Imparia!

The Cowpen Dry Docks and Ship- building Co., Ltd., Blyth, state that the dry docks have been fairly well employed during the past twelve months, and many extensive hull and engine repairs have been carried out. The yard is particularly well equip ped for this class of work, as apart from the six shipbuilding berths and deep-water jetty, there are five dry docka

(up to 180ft. long), and the works are fitted throughout with elec- trical and pacunatic machinery, The iron and brass foundries belonging to the company have also been well em- played, and it is hoped to obtain a share of the new orders in the market.

During the past year Metars. Menzies and Co., Ltd., have effected re- pairs on upwards of 350 vessels, in Leith and Granton. Approximately 40 and auxiliary motorships. About one were foreign-owned, including sailing
