SHORT ON SHIPS?
English Admiral and Lord Dis
agree on Marine Needs.
Now Handling Half Gross Ton
mage of the World.

London, May 3.-Admiral Raron
Charles Beresford called the attention
of the house of lords to the depletion
in the tonnage of British ships needed
for trade purposes, asserting unless it
was remedied it would endanger the
supply of food and asked the govern
ment to consult the leaders with a
view to obtaining more labor for ship
building
In reply Earl Curzon said the gov
ernment is now administering the
whole British mercantile marine,
amounting to half the gross tonnage
of the world. Forty-three per cent of
the British tonnage, he added, has
been requisitioned for naval and mill
tary purposes. 4 per cent is occupied
in carrying focdstuffs and raw mater
ial in behalf of the government and its
allies and the remaining 43s per cent is
being operated by British ship owners
under strict regulations.
Our ships are carrying supplies of
coal, grain, food, TIMBER. munitions and
the raw material munitions to all our
allies on an unprecedented scale" con-
tinue6 Earl Curzon. but for these
supplies to France, Russia and Italy,
they would be dependent upon their
own totally inadequate resources. In
several instances the shortage of ton
mage has been balanced by new ships.
1t is surprising that we stood the
chant vessels of all sorts are being
built and the number of small craft
added to the mercantile marine has
