LINERS INSTEAD OF WARSHIPS.

A very remarkable acd significant step has been taken by Messrs. Yarrow and Co. in con- nection with their Glasgow yards. Before the war they were chiefly concerned in the construction of special types of light-class war- ships. During the war the whole of their plant was adapted for the construction of torpedo-boat destroyers and the latest types of motor boats for Admiralty pur- poses, such as have distinguished themselves on several occasions in certain cutting -out expeditions. the stoppage of naval work, the a result of

Tjiliwong Java passenger liners. Sir Alfred Yarrow, Bart.. has long establish- ed his reputation as a man who bids for big things in bis pro- fession, and in this respect he is most vigorously backed by his brilliant son, Mr. A. F. Yarrow, who. for some, years past, bas achieved very pronounced distinc- tion in modern marine engineer- ing, and it is highly probable that: the liner type which is to be pro-i duced from the yards will have distinctive features in regard to oil fuel.

THE CONCRETE SHIP. Shipbuilding is a huge industry and has exercised the best brains all the world over. says a writer to the Journal of Commerce. The latest development is the vessel built of reinforced concrete. Like very many new departures in in- Haihong..... dustrial development it has had to Haitan endure a lot of prejudice from | Quinnebaug | Medina men who have been brought up mile and accustomed to the existing state of things. First, when iron ships made their appearance this: wasmanifest. Actual experience in time dissipated the idea that they would not float like a wooden sailing ship. They have surviv- ed every possible test, and the world's commerce has been borne over every sea with a confidence and success.that men had come to believe that the ultimate per- fection had been reached. That is not so. The reinforced con- crete ship has come to stay. I
