AMERICAN TONNAGE NOW
GREATER THAN SINCE 1863
On June 20 arcs Ships Were Registered
In Foreign Trade, Re
port Stntcs

WASHINGTON. August 30. - TIL.
American flag now floats over more
ships In the foreign trade than at anv
time since 1863.
flgures made public to-day by the
Department of Commerce show req
ora increase in American shipping for
the year ended June 80. On that dnte
mere were registered in the foreign
trade 2,16S ships. totalling ls13.775
gross tons, an increase OF 363 ships and
1888 tons for the year.
Practically all the increases are duo
10 the new American registry law. AS
sistant Secretary Sweet of the De-
partment of Commerce. said in state
mcnt to-day:
This is about triple the increase in
registered tonnage for any previous
year In American history. Our regis
tered tonnage is now much greater than
at any time since 1863. when we had
4."eb,l14 gross tons in foreign trade. 1t
Is many times more efficient, however.
as the steam tonnage now amounts TO
l,2'5,o67 gross tons. while in 1863 II
amounted to only 1925 tons
The increase from the ship regis
try act of August Is. 1914, TO June 10
1915. was so rapid that tonnage under
the American flag now employed in
foreign trade is nearly equal to such
tonnage under the French or Norwe-
CLAN flags. British tonnage. Of course,
is more than ten-fold greater"

REVOLVING DOOR: APRAYER

If it were in order to offer a sup
plication to the powers of the myth
ical world of red-hot Goals and prong
forks, one fervent prayer would run
something like this:
May there be an especially hot
and glowing bed of Goals, an extra
deputation of sprightly, red-capped
imps, gridiron always ready with
prickly upper side, and bountiful
supply of purgatory anthracite, all
for the individuals who insist on
rushing through revolving doors at
hurried clip and leaving them
spinning.
To come back to earth, where this
happens, day by day in every office
building police regulation would
almost be justified. There is actuaI
danger in this practice, and to the
aged or infrm the revolving dool
has become fearsome object.
