"The standard ship now being built in British shipyards to make
good the loss of tonnage due to submarine warfare, is of about
8,000 tons, and all the ships already laid down are of identical
pattern.
Eight thousand tons seems to have been hit upon as a middle size
between 6,000 and 10,000 tons."--_Pearson's Weekly_.
A very good hit too.
