Work on the largest amount of naval tonnage to be in hand at any one time during the last seven years will shortly be under way in British yards. This is due to the overlapping of programmes owing to past delays for reasons of economy. It will be divided up as follows:—Cruisers, 10.000ton class, 4; 7000-ton class, 2; 5200-ton class, 2; flotilla leaders and destroyers, 22; submarines. 6; aircraft carrier, over 10,000 tons. 1; sloops. 5; depot ship, 1. The German four-masted barque Priwall, which left Port Victoria on February 14. arrived at Queenstown 91 days out from Austraiia, and so has the honour of being the first ship home in this season's Australian sailing Derby. The Priwall was the sixth vessel to leave Australia, being 37 days behind the leader, the Abraham Rydberg. Last year the Priwall took 107 days, the same time as that taken by the Padua. After being delayed by head winds, the Finnish barque Herzogin Cecilie arrived at Falmouth on May 18. The vessel left Port Lincoln on January 17 and the voyage occupied 116 days.
