536 COMMERCE YEARBOOK built since that time. Of the world’s tonnage of transoceanic steamers of over 6,000 gross tons. 61 per cent was built in the past 10 years. Changes in American Shipping. The total tonnage of American merchant vessels in 1925 was 125 per cent above the average for 1910-1914, while the portion in foreign trade was nearly nine times greater, rising from about one-eighth of the total to almost one-half. However, total tonnage, includ- ing that engaged only in coastwise and inland water service, has continued the decline begun in 1923, falling to 17,406,000 gross tons in 1925. While in 1924 the decrease in total tonnage was shared about equally between the ships documented for foreign and those documented for coastwise and internal trade, in 1925 it was confined to vessels documented for foreign trade, with an increase in both Great Lake and coastwise and internal shipping. . Table 24 shows the changes in our merchant marine since 1850. It is noteworthy that shipping tonnage documented for foreign trade had fallen steadily between 1850 and 1910, and was less than one- third as great in the last named year as half a century earlier. A three-fold increase over the 1910 figure, however, had taken place even before the United States entered the World War, in 1917, and a considerable increase even up to 1914.
