MOTOR-SHIP BUILDING. Some doubt has been expressed whether British shipowners are taking to the motor vessel to the same extent as their foreign competitors, but according to the Motor Ship, recent events show the position now to be more reasruring than has hitherto been the case. Since the beginning of October, contracts have been awarded for large motor ships with a carrying capacity of 430,000 tons. Of these craft, over half, with a tonnage of 230,000, are to be built in British yards. This is more than double ihe motor tonnage ordered in the same period in any other country, Germany being second with vessels—a large proportion for foreign ownership—of about 100,000 tons deadweight. In view of the numerous contracts that have recently been placed, it may be considered that whilst 1110-0 will be no boom in shipbuilding, a return towards stability is now assured.
