These standard ships are very good for carrying grain or doing ordinary tramp work, but they are not the class of ship which a liner com- pany would have built. Not only is the initial cost of these standard steamers high-and it would have been as high, no doubt, if they had been built by private owners but a consider- able additional expenditure is now inevitable for alterations to adapt them to the different trades in which they will be used."
