The annual report on the French Mercantile Marine, prepared by | M. de Rousiers, general sceretury of the Central Committee of French ship owners, shows that French. merchant tonnage at present aggre- gates 4,372,000 tons gross, against 3,390,000 tons last year. In the cours of 1928, 173,200 stemmers were added to the French merchant fleet, while the total ion- mage of steamers broken up or sold to foreign firms was only 117,525. Laid-up vesaria now aggregates 155,801 tons, as compared with 216,805 tons in 1926. One may won- der, M. de Rousiers adds, whether such improvement is due to parti. cular events in 1926, such as the "KASHM18" strike of British miners, or to more general causSES, Anyhow, it is note worthy that the percentage of laid- up vessels is much lower than the average world figures, which is about 10 per cent.
