Chief of photographic Office
Washington, Says Titanic Was
Using Southern Route.

In compliance with a request .rcm the
United States government. transmitted
through Lieutenant John Grady, head Of
the photographic Office IN this city. all OF
the large transatlantic lines have agreed TO
place the steamship lanes $50 miles further
to the south during the spring and sum-
mer months. when the melting glaciers of
the north are sending their deadly ice
down into the waters Of. the North At
lantic.
The Hydrographic Office reported that the
warm winds and currents Of the Gulf
Stream did not sweep the ocean clear OF
the dangerous bergs until they had reached
the fortieth parallel. IL suggested that 10
the south and east Of the Grand Banks.
where the ice drifts thickest the course be
laid below that line.
The companies, stirred by the loss OF the
Titanic, went even further than the sug-
gestlon OF the photographers. agreeing
upon a west-bound course across the
thirty-nlnth degree OF latitude between
longitude 40 and so degrees west and an
eastbound course across latitude 3s degrees
20 minutes, between the same meridians
From these points the vessels will follow
the great circle routes 10 tHelE poibS, az
cording TO cable message received at the
Cunard Office yesterday from the com
pany's headquarters In Liverpool.
1t was said at the Cunard office yester-
day that this was the course picked out oy
Captain Dow of the liner Carmania. which
sailed from here on Wednesday, two days
after the news OF the Titanic's sinking be-
came known. The North German Lloyd
representatives here received similar In
structlon from their home office yesterday.
They stated that the change would add
from ten to sixteen hours to the time or
crossing.
The extreme southerly track for the big
liners heretofore has crossed longitude Al
degrees in latitude 40 degrees 10 seconds.
nearly two degrees further north than the
one agreed upon yesterday. This is for the
eastbound steamers. The westbound course
crossed longitude Al degrees in latitude u
degrees This course was seldom used'
especially since the idea Of speed has been
uppermost In tho minds OF the competing
companies The usual route lay many miles
further north.
