Nearly 1900 Merchant Vessels of
About 100000 Tons Will be Com
pleted Within Little More Than
Year by U. S.
The magnitude of the American
governments shipbuilding program
was revealed the other day for the
first time in a statement by the ship
ping board showing that nearly L.
200 merchant vessels of about 6,OOO,-
900 tons will be completed within a
little more than year.
Completion of ships Communicated
in shipyards and of vessels actually
or about to be contracted for will
give the country fleet of about L.
600 ships with a total tonnage of
more than 100000. In addition to
this the board will complete in 1919
vessels already contracted for and
under negotiation of about 100000
tons. A billion dollars has Just been
asked of Congress to complete the
program.
Now Leads the World.
The United States now is leading
the world in shipbuilding and if the
present rate of construction were
kept up would become the leading
shipping nation in the world in a few
years. The British, whose present
ocean-going tonnage is about Is ,OOO,-
600, are hampered in building by
lack of men and materials. In al
other countries, except Japan, build.
ing virtually is at a standstill
