JAPAN SHIP LOSS
FAST ENOUGH 10
2
Washington, Dec. 27. ifP)
Japan Is losing troop and sup
ply ships at the rate of more
than one a day, fast enough to
reduce her great merchant mar
ine to insignificance in two
years if. losses go unchecked in
a Pacific naval war of attrition.
United States and Dutch
army, navy and air reports for
the first three weeks of the war
list 26 Japanese merchant ves
sels as sunk or seriously damag
ed by submarines or air attacks
in Philippine, Borneo and Ma
layan waters despite heavy nav
al and air escort.
Although Japan has 23 ship
yards with 69 berths for con
struction of large craft, her steel
resources are limited and build
ing facilities are believed to be
far below what would be neces
sary to make up for even half
of such a rate of losses.
At the start of the war Jap
an's merchant fleet was third
largest in the world, trailing
those of Britain and the United
States. In sea-going vessels of
2,000 tons or more it consisted
of 898 ships of 4,754,699 gross
tons. Of these, 717 were freight
ers, 132 were combination passenger-cargo
ships, 49 were tank
ers and two were primarily re
frigerated cargo vessels.
Britain had 2,644 ships of 18,
806,379 tons and the United
States had 1,150 ships of 7,078,
909 tons.
RAILROADS SEEK

Salem, Dec. 27 (AP) Eleven

Saturday petitioned Ormand R.
