London, Jan. 25.—How seriously the war has affected the shipbuilding in- | dustry of the world is shown in the pffcial statistics which have been sup-*| plied by leading British shipbuildng firms. During the past year only 1,655 merchant vessels, representing a total of 1,670, 610 tons, have been added to the mercantile marine of the world, as compared with 3,165 vessels of 3.- | 484,171 tons during 1v14, . While all the combatant nations have obviously suffered in the great- est degree, the United Kingdom has been the most seriously affected, for the figures relating to British ship- building show that only 517 mercbant vessels were built, representing a to- tal tonnage of 649,336 tons, as against 1,294 vessels of 1,722,154 tons, during the previous year. | = Total Output of the World. | The following table which has been compiled from statistics furnished by the leading shipbuilders shows the {0 tal output of the world during 1915 and 1914: Tonnage United Kingdom 649,336 British Dominions . 183 32,937 Foreign combatant and noncombatant 989,337 1.671,610 1914 i United Kingdom . British Dominions Foreign combatant and non-combatant 1,609 In the statistics relating to work turned out by British yards no figures are given of warship building. Were these figures included, it is probable that the output might have been lar- ger than in any previous year, but the tgtals serve to demonstrate the amount of work which has been ac- ecomplished in British yards. During the whole year ship owners have been deploring the difficulties which have lain in the way of their obtaining de- livery of vessels ordered before the war broke out and in many yards de- voted to war work, new mercantile tonnage remains on the stocks and in the condition it was left months ago. During the year 1913 the total mer- eantile production of the United Eingdom was 1,424 vessels with an RgEregate tonnage of 1,977,573, s0 that the output last year was less by 907 vessels and 1,328,237 tons. Decrease Heavy in Belfast. The decrease in the British output as been particularly heavy in Bel- where Harland and Wolff have h fast, | for the first tim- ‘n the history of the famous firm la“‘ched no merchant vessel, whereas in 1913 they launched six steamers representing 156,047 tons. Workman, Clark & company also did comparatively little mercantile work, for the total of the new tonnage which they turned out during the year was half a dozen with a total tonnage of 26,318, as against vessels representing 75,188 tons during the previous year. It was early in the year that Work- man, Clark & Company completed their most important merchant steam- ers, the steamer Pembrokeshire, the {Carmarthenshire and the Ebro, for the Royal Mail Steam Packet com- pany. All three vessels were prac- tically completed at the end of 1914, and there are specific reasons why the vessels should be finished this year. At the end of March, they launched the first of a number of steamers which they have contracted to build for the United Fruit company of New York and Boston. the steamer San Mateo. a vessel of 3,340 tons. In May the steamer San Pablo was placed in the water, and this was followed that they cannot afford to be ill. They must keep themselves in the best of health at all times.

There has been great activity throughout the whole year in Clyde | yards, from which 126 vessels, repre- Certainly a museum specimen. In prime condition. senting in the aggregate 215,060 tons, were launched. Many of the vessels, however, were small ones, and wheth- er they increase the number of launches, they do not add consider- ably to the total tonnage. Although the majority of the shipyards on the Clyde were taken over by the govern- | ment shortly after the outbreak of the war, for a considerable time there was UNRULY CHILDREN A truant officer has declared that most such children who come under his observation are not properly nourished. Mal-assimilation of food makes children cross, puny, peevish and unruly.

'WHAT T0 DO FOR ~_ITGHING SKINS | Eczema, ringworm and other itching, | burning skin eruptions are so easily made worse by improper treatment that | vessels one has to be very careful. There is one method, however, that you need not hes- itate to use, even on a baby’s tender skin—that is, the resinol treatment. | Resinol is the prescription of a Balti- more doctor, put up in the form of res- inol ointment and resinol soap. This proved so remarkably successful that thousands of other physicians have been prescribing it constantly for 20 years. Resinol stops itching instantly, and almost always heals the eruption quick- ly and at little cost. Resinol ointment and resinol soap can be bought at any druggist’s. | ‘ CLEARS BLOTCHY SKIN \ Try resinol soap for a week. You will be surprised see how it clears and freshens your complexion, even in | that short time. Used for the sham- 00, it removes dandruff and keeps the air live, rich and lustrous. his is i because it contains the soothing, heal- l ing resinol medication.

It was only after the government decided upon a scheme for drawing all available labor to the “controlled yards” for war work, that, that these firms experienced any difficulty. Largest Vessel Launched. The largest vessel launched on the Clyde last year was the steamer “Aotearoa,”” a liner of 15,000 tons, built by the Fairfield company, for the Union Steamship company of New Zealand. This vessel, which is the only merchant ship turned out by the firm last year, is a twin screw geared be on in turbine steamer, and has the distinc- tion of being the largest vessel launched in 1915 in the world. 10-4x7-9.

SAL ALSO SEVERAL PERSIAN, KURDI = nce Hawthorn, slie & Co., of | Newcastle on Tyne, and the Parson’s Marine Steam Turbine Co., of Walls- end, did not launch a single merchant , while on the west coast among the well known firms who did not put any mercantile tonnage into the water were Vickers of Barrew and Cammeli, Laird & Co., of Birkenhead. All over the northeast coast total output during 1915 was vessels of about 330,000 tons, the 185 Decrease of 191,000 Tons, On the Tyne alone merchant work during the year shows a decrease of over 191,000 tons as compared with the statistics relating to 1914, The total output of English yards, as distinct from Scottish and Irish rards is shown in the following table, and the comparison for 1914 is given: In 1914 the Germans held the rec- ord by the launching of the liner Bis- marck, a vessel of 56,000 tons, built for the Hamburg-Amerika line at Hamburg, and the second largest ves- sel was the White Star liner Britannic of 50,000 tons, launched at Belfast. The only other geared turbine ves- | sels of note, launched by the Clyde | side last year was the Federal liner Cumberland, of 8,900 tons, at Port Glasgow in March, and the Australian steamer Nairana of 2,970 tons, at Dumbarton in June. Two Ocean Vessels. Only two ocean going motor driven | vessels were launched on the Clyde, | both from the yards of Harland and Wolff, the Bostonian at Swan and the | Montezuma at Irvine. The former is | a vessel of 5,200 tons built for F. Ley- land and company, Ltd., and the lat- ter is of 5,600 tons, built for the Elder | Dempster & Co. In tonnage Russell & Co. take the leading place, having launched nine representing 48,380 tons, which is the world’s record output during 1915, Two Oil Tankers, Only two oil tankers were launched in 1915 on the Clyde, both for the | yard of Greenock and Grangemouth Dock company. One is the Venna- char, built for a Glasgow firm, and the other the Barendrecht, for the owners in Rotterdam. The former was a vessel of 3,662 tons and the latter of 4.700 tons. Tivery effort was made during the carly part of the year to get into the water vessels which were well ad- vanced on the stocks, and so set at iiberty building berths for other work. In their efforts the ship- builders received encouragement from the admiralty, but during the latter | months of 1915 there was a marked ; decline in the number of launches | from the Clyde. Among shipbuilders on the north- east and west coasts of England, several of the most famous names are absent in the returns of firms having launched merchant vessels.
