WASHINGTON. D. c., July 3
Ship production in the United States
in June amounted to 2S0.400 dead
weight tons. making the total 1918
production to date 1.0S4.670 tons.
The June production, which is at
the rate Of 3,364,S0O tons year. is a
new record for the United States and
is the greatest output of ocean going
tonnage ever completed in any one
month by any nation. 1t comes with
in $4,000 tons of the worlds record
for ship-building made by the British
shipyards in May, but which included
all classes of vessels.
OF the months output, steel ships
totaled 10000 tons. and wooden ships
1850 tons The number Of vessels
was not announced, as it was discov-
cred that several had been put into
service SO quickly after delivery that
inspectors had not made reports on
them on the shipping boards Stats
tical department. Tonnage figures
were available from the division Of
operations.
Rapid Increase in June.
An amazing growth in output was
disclosed by detailed figures for the
four weeks of June. In the first week
six ships Of 24,43O lightweight tons
were delivered, the second week ten
more of 64,732 tons were added. and
in the third week the average for the
month was made one a day by the
completion of five ships totaling 61,-
260 tons.
1t was in the last week Of the
month, however, that the ship build
ers really hit their stride and gave
evidence of the tremendous output
which may be expected from now on.
Deliveries in the last week totaled
129,978 tons, which is at the rate Of
nearly 100000 tons year
The same growth also has been
shown from month to month. The
output in June was three times that
in January, which amounted to SS,507
tons.
