durat ton today in a government test for the
Standardization Of her propellsrs, the Tor
pedo boat destroyer Bailey made rate u
3O.S knots.
This Is a higher rate than any vessel OF
the United States navy has reached, so rar
as records made public reveal, and 1t IS
faster than the Bailey, which Is built to
make but 80 knots, will be required to run.
It is not believed or expected that the Bal
ley can maintain this speed for any length
of time but 1t shows how swift descent
upon an enemy she could make In actual
war II she were required to.
While making this high rate the Baileys
engines worked with remarkable smooth
ness and evenness. and the ooaro OF naVA
officers who were conducting the trial were
surprised at the small vibration Of the
craft. In fact. the vibration was hardy
noticeable, though with her blowers ana
engines doing their utmost she MADE con-
siderable noise, as might be expected.
The board consisted Of Rear Admiral
Frederick Rodgers, president, and capt.
r. D. Evans, Commanders Richard Hender-
son and C. r. Rocker. Lieutenant Com
mander John r. Edwards and Naval Con-
structor w. L. Caps.
The boat was sent over the governments
measured knot in this bay SIX times. the
weather conditions being fairly favorable:
1t was on one of these runs that the speed
of 3O.S was made. On the other runs less
than 80 knots were made. The minimum
speed was % knots. but as the board only
desired to complete the standardization OF
the propellers the matter of speed was a
matter of secondary consideration though
it was naturally a matter OF interest.
