note that all these tankers now un-

one or two, are being built along longi-

cause the longitude construction is
without a doubt diminishing disas-

of lives of mariners annually.
With the increasing popularity of
oil as fuel, not only on ocean liners
but ashore as well, the need of oil

for some years, even though the build

While there are enough general cargo
carriers to go round at the present
