The United States Lines, Inc., has just closed a contract for the building of two 30,000â€"ton ships.: They will be the largest ever build in the United States. _ They will be built at Camden, N. J., at a total cost of $21,000,000. They inaugurate the actâ€" val beginning of the great building program of the marine corporation under its agreement with the governâ€" ment. They will be maintained in the New York to Southampton run with the Leviathan until two larger vesâ€" sels are constructed.‘ They will both be completed in the first six months of 1932. The plans of thecorporation call for a total expenditure of approxiâ€" mately $90,000,000, including the cost of the two projected liners, which, it is said, are expected to be fast enough to beat either the Bremen or Europa. The day is in sight, says the Cinâ€" cinnati . Enquirer, . when <~American ships and the American flag again will hold their proper place on the seas of the world, comparable with the best that ever came from the shipyards of England, traditional mistress of the seas.
