A Large Percentage of New Tonnage.

London, Oct. 24.

The large proportion of tanker tonnage now being built and the continued demand for motor ships are the two chief features of the annual report. of Lloyds Registor of Shipping. During the twelve months ended June 30, 1930, plans for 601 vessels, aggregating over 2.000,000, tons were approved, the gures being the highost.since the Britain's re- tention of the lead in. shipbuilding is shown by the fact that her share amounts to nearly 60 per cent, of the total constructlan. Vessels carrying oil absorb 55 per cent of GULF,he new tonnage and the report

points out that the world short of tanker tonnage which was experi enced about a year ago is thus being rapidly overcome.

Discussing the outlook for or dinary cargo ships, the report re marks that it is evident that with the freight market at the present low level, there is no inducement for shipowners to order new ton- nage. It is not surprising, there- fore, that the most recent returna indicate a heavy falling-off in the placing of orders. A very serious incrense during the past year in the number of ships laid up through- out the world is evidence of the fact that a continued expansion of work:I tensage had not been counter- balanced by a similar expansion in overseas trade and until the latter improves the shipping industries cannot expect better times,
