The World Looks to The United States to Restore Commercial Shipping to the Seas Regardless of one's feelings with respect to the European War, it must be accepted as a plain, cold fact that whatever can done within the next few years to restore commercial shipping to the seas must be done in the United States. The ship yards of the belligerents are more than 75 per cent occupied with war construction. The mammoth undertaking of restoring the world's loss in commercial tonnage means an era of unprecedented prosperity for American ship building companies. Every ship yard in the United States is now taxed to its utmost capacity, yet the total number of commercial ships under construction is less than 400.

The demand far exceeds the supply.
