Loyds Register shows that the steady drift from coal to oi in steamer bmkcrs is now even more pro-
 bounced than was that from sail o coal quarter of a century ormore ago. In 1914 when the great war began hcrc were but 36l vessels in the trade that used oil for fuel. Today there more than 2,jO0 and the tonnage in the same period has advanced ten million tons The use of o has increased 23 per cent within he past twelve months and a much greater gain of oil over coal is predicted for the next twelve months It is also interesting to know that 70 per cent of the bunker o in use is from Mexico. One reason for so many ocean, going vessels switching from coal o oil is that the for- Iaer in many places is difficult to procure on account of miners strikes. British coal miners have been idle for months ou account of labor troubles and similar difficult
 cs prevail in the United States The result is that coal producers everywhere are becoming worried and the growing popularity of oil fuel for vessels compIcatcs
 loI problems But while the coal men worry, the oil producers rcoice and the kccncr the competition, the greater thc pubIics gain.
