the fact that the aggregate ship
building at the present, when mill
lions of persons were taken from Ia
Dor, was above the boom year of
1918 and declared it was very
creditable performance.
The destruction of German sub
marines, he said, had gone UP stead
lily and steadily during the year. This
was remarkable and encouraging be-
cause it showed how admirably the
shipping controller really was Crap
pling with the most menaeing situa-
ton with which Great Britain Is
confronted in this war.
The effect of government control
OF shipping, the premier continued,
was that, although the aggregate
tonnage was down by something like
twenty per cent, Great Britain had
lost only six per cent Of her imports.
This was only six per cent less than
last year in tons. Had it not been for
the sl1illful way in which shipping
had been handled it would have been
for Great Britain to carry
through this year and to help the
allies to the extent she had.
