BRITISH BUILDING
INDICATES DECLINE
Contraction in Ship, Construction is
Indicated by LIoyd's Report.

Although a general contraction in
shipbuilding is Indicated by returns
of construction under way throughout
the world at the first of the year, the
aggregate is only about per cent less
than at the beginning of October last
says a statement issued by Lloyd's
Register of Shipping.
The total now building in the world
is given as 7,17s,0o0 gross tons, in
comparison with 7,565,000 tons at the
end of the third quarter of 1920 France
and Holland are practically the only
countries to show q gain in the
amount Of construction.
For the first time since the war
period, it is pointed out, British ship
building shows decline The recession
is only small one however, 100000
gross tons being in hand at the end of
December, compared with, 3,731, 900
tons at the end of last september
The decrease of $4,000 tons compares
with one of 100000 tons for American
shipyards. the aggregate under way
in this country at the end of 1920 being
100000 tons, compared with 1,772, 000
tons three months previously.
Other countries than the United
States and the United Kingdom show
an advance of $4,000 tons; but this is
accounted for by the increase in the
amount building in France from 293,-
600 tons to $4,000 tons, and in HoI-
lands total of 100000 tons, compared
with $4,000 tons in the previous quar-
ter. The gain of 100, 900 tons by these
two countries, however, is somewhat
reduced by declines elsewhere. ItaIy's
share declined only 2,000 tons, from
$4,000 to 363,000; but the aggregate
building in the British dominions was
reduced from $4,000 to 10000 tons
and other nations also lost ground in
the quarter just ended.
While the United States was build
ing about 100000 tons less than the
United Kingdom at the end of last
September, Lloyd's Register points
out. the British lead at the end of De.
cember had been widened to almost
100000 tons. At the beginning Of
1920, for the first time since the war
period, Great Britain took the lead
from the United States, with 2,994,00o
tons under construction, compared
| with 100000 in this country. In the
ensuing year, however. the United
| Kingdom has gained over 100000 tons
while the United States has lost about
1,650,000 tons and is building consider
ably less than half the amount it had
| under way a year ago.
AS result of the changed conCi-
| tons, sic per cent of the worlds ship
| building is now being done in Great
| Britain, compared with ,3S.1 per cent
| at the beginningsof 1920. In the same
period the United States share of the
total has decreased from 37.7 per cent
to 1872 per cent. Today, therefore, the
United Kingdom is building more thar
| all the rest of the world combined. q
| position held by the United States
during the period of the intensified
shipbuilding campaign in this coun-
try. In the last quarter of 1920 Great
Britain's share increased % per cent
bringing her across the so per cent
mark, while the proportion held BY
the United States decreased So pei
cent.

DANIELS BELIEVES
in LIMITING NAVY
America Must Have Strongest Unless All
| Dlsarm, Secretary Asserts.
(By. Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE present
time was described as ripe for a move
ment toward limitation of naval arna-
ments by international agreement by
ing Secretary Davis of the state de-
partment in testimony today before the
house naval affairs committee.
Secretary Daniels declared that in his
opinion the move might properly be made
by President elect Harding. who, he said,
could "caIl and hold an international dis
armament conference within two months
after his Inauguration.
Mr.. Harding, as president, the secre-
tary pointed out would have complete
authorization to call such a conference
under the provisions of the 1916 naval
appropriation act.
Secretary Davis told the committee
that President Wilson had not called
such a conference because the president
felt in view of the short time he would
remain in office such action would en-
barrass the incoming administration. Mr.
Wilson did not use the powers granted
him in the 1916 act at the close of the
world war. Mr.. Davis added, because he
thought the participation by the United
States in the league of nations would
bring about the desired result.
The committee was urged by Mr.. Dan
iels to authorize continuance of work or
the uncompleted portion of the 1911
three-year naval building program unit
an international agreement of some kline
was reached. He asserted that If M
such agreement could be obtained from
the powers, the United States should
build ''the' greatest navy in the world"
Asked by Chairman Butler if Great
Britain's geograp hic situation did not en-.
title that nation to command of the seas
Mr. Daniels stated that he did not sub.
scribe to this belief.
1.-THE United States has the longes
coast line" said the naval secretary, ant
has Alaska. Hawaii, Giuam and thu
Philippines to protect, as well as mora
obligation in South America under thu
Monroe Doctrine. 1--WE are entitled t.
| largest navy in the world if there is no
| international agreement
The pending Borah resolution, propos
| ing a so per cent reduction in nava
programs for the next five years on thu
| part of the United States, Great Britain
and Japan, was brought into the dis
| cussion by Representative Britten, re
| publican, Illinois, and the naval secre
| tary voiced his opposition to the BoraI
proposal on the grounds that it woult
leave this country second in nava
| strength and did not take into consid
| Grafton armed land forces.
| Chairman Butler asked Mr.. Daniels II
present to the committee tomorrow data
| schowing the naval construction anC
projected programs of Japan and Grea
Britain.

same agreement.
The balloonists will remain here IN
til tomorrow afternoon as guests of
w. b. Way, divisional superintendent
of the Canadian National Railway,
whose private car has been placed at
their disposal.
Farrell detailed hardships OF the
trip and said when they felt fully
rested they took turns in mushing
along with the Indians. They had
bcen initiated into the secrets of the
snowshoe while at Moose Factory, and
got along fairly well, but were rather
used up when time came to make
camp.
They We're caught in a snowstorm the
first Sunday on the trail and were
forced to pitch camp after travelling
but one mile. Eight days down the
Missinabi their dogs began to show
signs of fatigue, and men were sent
back to Moose Factory for others.
They were well provisioned and moose
meat formed part of their daily ra-
ton.
They carried four pigeons when they
left Rockaway, Farrell said. One of
them was released a short distance
from the point of departure. Two of
the others were eaten during their
stay in the woods and the fourth was
killed and held for the last morsel.
After their ascent they went into
the clouds. The only. time they could
see the earth was when passing over
Wells, n. Y. Then they were caught
in heavy snowstorm, struck tree tops
in the Adirondacks but were swept by
the wind.
When the barking of a dog was
heard they opened the valve of the
gas bag and descended. The balloon
lodged in the branches Of a large tree
and the officers climbed down, think
Ing they were in the Adirondacks. They
did not learn their whereabouts until
they met the Indian, Tom Marks. three
days later.
Kloor, who walked ahead of the 9th
ers, came upon the Indian and calIsf
to the others. Kloor first offered
Marks cigarette, to prove his FRIEND
mess, and then at the suggestion OF
tarrel, gave him a dollar.
The three officers carried 500
