The Future of Oar Shipyards.

Will the shipbuilding industry van
ish from America with the closing
of the war? The future Of this great
new industry must be pondered most
carefully. The reconstruction COM
mission which is now assured by the
actions of the Republicans and Demo-
Gratis of Congress will have a most
puzzling problem in this. 1t all de-
pends on the cost OF ship construc-
ton. The British are today building
ships more cheaply per ton than We
are. Back on peace basis they un-
doubtedly will decrease these costs.
If America fails TO do so. her in
dustry will survive on a large scale
only so long as the after-the-war
emergency shipping is being met
Then America and foreign companies
will inevitably seek the cheaper yards
of the world to place their contracts.

problems affecting labor. capital and
credit, the rehabilitation Of indus
trial and military war resources, for
eiGn trade. shipping industry and
ships and all other matters arising
during the change from the activities
of war to the pursuits Of peace. Near
ly three years ago a conference OF the
allied powers took up the after-the-
war problems. Since then separate
commissions have been studying these
problems. The United States cannot
afford to wait until peace comes be-
fore il too has thought out plans for
the demobilization OF its vast armies
and their ABSORPTION into industry. the
place of women in industry when the
war is over, the attitude toward
great combinations. the railroads,
telegraph and telephone lines. the
best way to deal with immigration
and the tariff
