SAVING LIFE AT SEA.
A Suggested Scheme of Practical Re-
form.

Surely the terrible disaster of the
Titanic will at last focus public at
tention upon the question of boat ac-
commodation on passenger ships to an
extent that will compel some drastic
amendment of the present criminal
state of affairs.
1t is quite true-as stated in 1.-THE
Express"-that very few liners carry
enough boats to take off all on board.
even should none of the boats be
damaged in launching.
But that is by no means all the
story.
/ have made many long voyages, and
Estate without fear of contradiction
that half the boats on most ships that
have been, say, five years afioat-par-
ticularly those including tropical
|routes-are not only not seaworthy,
but they could not be put out in any
thing like reasonable time.
Every one who has travelled much Is
familiar with boat drill" and knows
| 1t to be an absolute farce. But /
want to give you actual observed
facts.
Boat drill usually only consists of
stations being sounded, and the roll
call being taken of the crew at each
boat. Sometimes one boat will be
swung out and often the falls are not
touched before she is swung inboard
again.!
What is the good OF that? Who is
to know whether the gear Is sound
and in running order? Only once at
drill have l seen a life" boat actually
lowered to the water in midocean-
and the job was a revelation to many
besides myself. Here are the par
lticulars:
We were stopped about an hour. in
a calm sea, for an engine overhaul
quite an ordinary thing--and boat
drill was undertaken. The order to
lower away" was given quite unex-
