In consideration of the enormous losses of tonnage by Norwegian owners' in tho' service of the Allies, "Pairplay" state* that it is understood that ,tho British', Government has i come to an agreement with the Norwegian Government whereby tho construction , in British- shipyards of ■ steamers aggregating about 780,000 tone , grose will be allowed, all of which are to; Be laid down -within three years of tho termination of.the war, at the rate of 260,000 tons groß's per annum.- As the tonnage ordere<l in Great ■ Britain by Norwegian owncre totals only 450,000 tons, is. would appear that contracts for a further 330,000 tons had to be placed. Some owners have determined to make sure of. their profits by fixing' rates ahead. ■ For instance, one Norwegian firm, having placed an order for a enelter-deok steamer of 10,800 tons dead weight! and., two of about 9250 tone each, were-prepared to entertain an offer, for a four years' time charter at, say, 20s. on the Baltinte form , , or oven 18s. As theso steamers will probably cost between £25 and. J330 per ton dead weight, the charter rate'..suggested does not seemto bo in accordance tfith the anticipations of 6omo neutral. owners, especially considering that British', steamers, with, all the probabilities of control, have; been fix-, ed for three yoav'e after';.he termination of'the -war at-215..6f1. psr ton,- Mid at 15s. for five yeE.rs.-v :.:>■■ ... :
