MORE NEW SHIPS

Here is still more good news
for those who believe in a big
United States merchant marine,
and this includes about ninety
eight per cent of the citizens Of
the United States. The United
States lines recently signed a
contract with the New York
Shipbuilding Company for the
building of two great liners, the
largest ever built in America,
They will become a part of the
United States merchant marine.
The two great vessels will be of
thirty thousand tons each and
they will cost S2l, 100000 They
will be laid down Immediately,
which means that construction
will start at once.
The two liners will be modelled
after the great Leviathan but
will be even more luxuriously
equipped. They will be 705 feet
long, with an Sc foot beam and
each will have accommodations
for 1900 passengers.
The construction of other great
liners is to follow and other ships
are to be built for the trade with
Europe, with the Orient and with
South America. 1t has been a
long time since the United States
had IN 4rchant marine of which
it could justly be proud, but the
day is at hand again In the
good old days of the Yankee clip
per ships America shipping could
be seen all over the world, but
with h e development 0 the
steamship and the coming of the
war between the states our ship
ping began to | a g. After the
Civil War was over our merchant
marine had practically disappear
ed and the greater part f the
ocean carrying trade had been
sized by Great Britain. At
tempts were made to revive the
American merchant marine from
time to time but these were all
in vain. But the World War
taught us a lesson as to the value
of a merchant marine and it was
a costly lesson. With the close
of the war there was danger that
we might again lose interest in
our merchant marine, but pride
and national safety and self in
terest have won out over foreign
propaganda and we are again
about to take our rightful place
on the seas. And every true
American thereby has cause for
rejoicing. The Importance of this
fact cannot be overestimated.
