RESENT SPEECH
ABOUT TITANIC
Officers in British Merchant
Marine Are Angefed by
CHARGE of GoWafdice

VANCOUVER, In. c., August 22.-
Now that the Judgment of Lord Mer-
sey in connection with the loss of the
Titanic has been made public, I. w.
Moore, secretary of the Imperial Serv-
ice Guild, has given out for publica-
ton letter which was directed by
the guild to Senator Smith some
weeks ago for his attack on the execu-
tive officers of the Titanic after the
committees report had been introduc-
ed. The letter in part says:
81 am directed by the guild, which
is the great representative body of
the captains and officers of the Brit
ish merchant service, to inform you OF
the profound indignation which pre-
walls throughout the service, ranging
from the highest to the lowest rank,
at the malevelence which character
lied your speech on the report of your
committee which inquired into the
loss of the Titanic.
Had your recriminaticns and criti-
cisms been confined to those really re-
spon1ible for grave laxity in the way
of obsolete regulations, or the onis-
sion to make such in order to keep
pace with the modern developments of
merchant shipping, your committee
and your remarks would have done a
great public service; but when, with
out a shred of evidence or particle
of truth, you accuse officers OF the.
British mercantile marine of despica-
BILE cowardice, we deem, it requisite
to repel such odorous insinuations,
while we would suggest that their
fslsity is such as to minimize very
greatly the importance which other
wise would have been attached to the
report of your committee and your
own speech"

BIG JUPITER Wins UNSTINTED
PRAISE Of SEA.FARNG MEN

VALLEJO, August 24.-The United
States fuel ship Jupiter. the first
electrically driven sea,going vessel
ever built and the largest ship Of any
description ever aid down on the Pa
cific coast, was launched today from
the Mare Island Navy Yard ways.
The Jupiter is 572 feet long by SIS
feet beam, draws q feet 6 inches,
displaces 1880 tons of water and
has carrying capacity of 1880 tons
OF coal and 375,000 gallons Of fuel
oil. The keel was laid on October
18th last and the hull has been built
in record time at a saving of nearly
100000 over the appropriations OF
81, 1000 allowed by Congress.
Power is supplied by return tube
marine boilers, which furnish
steam to a six-stage turbine engine
of American design, driving a 1900
horsepower electric generator, the
largest of its kind ever built, current
from which is conducted to motors
driving twin screw shafts.
Economy is Gained.
1lLQeEIO the economies OF IuFDlH6
propulsion have been limited by the
fact that a turbine consumes least
steam when revolving at speeds so
high that propellers keeping pace
with the produce cavitation- that is,
the whirling screw cut a hole for 1t
self in the water. Consequently to
gain economy at one end 1t was nee
essary to cut down turbine speed to
a point where losses began to appear
at the other end.
To escape from the dilema, the
Jupiter was designed. Her steam
turbines will be driven at 1000 or
more revolutions minute, but the
they generate will be APP
piled by motors to the twin shafts at
q reduced speed, which can be trans
lated by the propellers into thrust
without undue loss.
Coal can be loaded from the Jupi-
ter into a cruiser at the rate of 100
tons an hour and duplex pumps will
permit her to take in or pump out
oil to another vessel at the rate Of
