ment of the former First one big
boat makes a record run across the
ocean and then another one trims that
time down until IL would seem as
though there was no end to the speed

The Cunard people themselves, how

Here are the reasons:

To make the comparison easy of

Ohio to the great lakes, and even to

Mr.. Thomson's attention was called
soon after the war to the steel rail
as manufactured in England, and as
laid down on some of the English
railroads. Sir Henry Bessemer's pro-
cess of steel manufacture had made
the steel rail commercially practica-
bic in England. But there were grave
doubts whether its high cost would
not make it impracticable CONNER

there would be traffic enough to JUS
