' One of the greatest problems that is brought near bythe end of hostilities is il'.at of salving over 15,000.000 tons of skipping- that lie on the ocean's floor This colossal Itonhage, which is equivalent to something like 3000 vessel* of various size, includes nipre than one argosy that would -have''driven 'Captain Kidd end his confreres of .the Spanish Main into insanities of'greed. In the depths of the Atlantic Jthere lie one ship that went down with a large consignment of bullion, and another that sank with a large amount of paper money, while in the region of the Mediterranean lies a boat laden with pearls from the East, worth many thousands of pounds. Before navigation and the fishing industry can be resumed with complete safety all these wrecks, especially those in the shallower waters around Britain inust be raised. Trawlers cannot work efficaciously when their nets catch gunken vessels instead of fish; and the danger of these submerged wrecks to other vessels is obvious. The work of salvage has already begun, but progresses slovdv because of the scarcity of salvage ships'
