THE GERMAN VESSELS.
RESTORE BRITISH SUPREMACY. By Telegraph —Press Assn.—Copyright. London, Dec. 31. A hundred German ships, mostly interned in South America, and many exceeding ten thousand tons burden, remain to be handed over to the Allies beyond the 250 already surrendered and provisionally distributed among the shipping companies. This distribution and the British shipbuilding activity has reestablished British shipping supremacy which at present is 5 per cent, more tonnage than pre-war, although still short of requirements. Tire operations allocated to the British for the clearance of all moored mines in Home waters and the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas have been completed. Certain Black Sea ports have also been cleared. —Reuter.
