BRITISH DIESEL INDUSTRY.—A i sense of proportion is sometimes absent in those who discuss the relative positions of the Diesel-engine building industries in Great Britain and abroad, for it is not an uncommon statement that British manufacturers are behind | their Continental competitors, according to the “Motor Ship.” A simple enumeration of facts should change this view. The number and power of marine oil engines being built at British works are between one-half and one-third of those in the rest of the world combined, and there are probably twice as many marine Diesel-engine factories in the United Kingdom as in any other country. It is a little surprising, therefore, to read recently in an engineering journal the following statement: —“It is proposed to install three 7,500 k.w. sets in this station, but when tenders were called for it was not found possible to put forward British-built engines, as our engine makers coukl not offer such large units. Engines of Continental design had, therefore, to be included in the scheme.” This refers to stationary oil engines, but it can hardly be correct to say that oilengine builders in Great Britain cannot construct Diesel motors of as large a size as can be built abroad. The resources at the disposal of some of our Diesel-engine works are probably greater than those of practically all others. It is a fair statement of the position to say that every size of Diesel engine which can be manufactured in any works abroad can be built satisfactorily at Home. v
