A report prepared at Detroit shows
that eighty-fve lake vessels, capable of
carrying 27,l77 tons, have been destroyed
or broken up during the past year, while
only twenty-five new vessels, with ca
pacity of 14,737 tons, have been put in
commission in the same period. The de-
crease is not large, but to go backward at
all is an unhealthy movement, and shows
the need for more intelligence in the leg
islation affecting ship building interests.
