The Position of Merchant Shipbuilding,

after been

and they will be interested to learn how the matter stands. The first question, of course, is how long the Government- will wait Brmistice terma have arranged with all the States. It seems to be clear that they can- not act in a hurry. They may not actually require much more from the arms factories, but they are bound to have regard to the fact that an armistice falls very much short of the conclusion of peace,

that the negotations fallowing it will take an appreci able time, that the Peace Treaties will presumably have to be ratified at a still later period, and that the Allies will have to maintain a big army on the Continent until their demands have been fully met. It is pretty safe,

therefore, to conclude that we shall have to make sufficient munitions to provide for all possibilities, however remote, and that we cannot disband the organisation for their production until it is certain it will not be required again. The construction and repair of war ships will probably go on for the same reason, and it may be found impossible for a time to give much more attention to merchant ships or, in the ironworks, to the
