u S. BUILDING TWICE AS

Ltcyd's Figures March 81 Last
5Show Big Increase for First
.E Three Months in 1919.

LONDON. May 20 Correspondence
Of the Associated Press).-The United
States was building March 81 twice as
mach shipping as was Great Britain,
according to the figures given by
Ixpyd's Register for the first three
nfpnths of 1919. The total amount of
al shipping under construction on
that date in allied and neutral coun-
tkfes was given as 7.796.266 tons
Great Britain's share Of this was
2354,S45. The United States was then
building 4,1s5,523 tons OF shipping.
lIhese figures credit the United
States with IS per cent of the total
t&unage under construction in allied
or neutral countries outside of Great
Afitain. and 1t is pointed out that
the United States is now building
tNenty-eigh times as much as it was
il June, 1914. One London paper says
the effect OF so many newly built
ehtps entering into seagoing trade
afeady is being felt.
