MAIDEN VOYAGE OF VESSEL

len0e to the Germans, the Lucia
viii Endeavor to Make Trip
Across the Atlantic.

Washington-The first non-sinkable
sea-going ship, the Lucia, achievement
Of American genius, will load this week
and leave for Europe. She will be
without convoy at any stage OF the
voyage. She goes as an open chal-
lenge to the German submarines to
prove that she is invulnerable.
No other test has been made or will
be made Of the efficacy of her multi
plicity of air-tight and water-tight
cells. Her trial trip and maiden voy-
age will be def to the U-boats or the
most practical test possible of their
craftsmanship.
1t has been intended to make test
OF the Lucia in drydock, but it was
learned Sunday from John A. Donald,
vice-president Of the emergency fleet
corporation and shipping board com
missioner, that the drydock test had
been abandoned for drastic trial in the
proving grounds of the danger zone
inventor to Oversee Loading.
William f. Donnelly, marine engi-
neer Of New York, and inventor OF the
non-sinkable construction of the Lucia,
Will have complete charge Of the load
Ing OF the vessel. Although the Lucia
Is fitted with 1900 of the water and
air tight cells, permanently attached to
the frames and deck beams and other
available spaces of the vessel, about Is
to 20 per cent of the cargo space must
be packed with additional numbers of
these buoyant boxes. Mr.. DonneIly
personally will supervise this final
phase of the safety equipment
The Lucia, 9OOO-ton vessel, for
merly belonging to Austria, was reQui-
sitioned for the purpose, and expert
ments were begun. Only recently,
after about four months of test and
trials. the new equipment was com
pleted.
Although no actual tests Of the safe
y of the Lucia from tor E4oes has
Feen made, the mathematical calcula-
ions from small scale experiments
says Mr.. Donnelly, are considered suf-
ffcient proof that even with a hole
forty feet long blown in her side she
would remain safely atioat supported
by the honeycomb of cells.

GAINS MANY NEW MEMBERS.
Red Cross Adds Approximately 1850,
600 in the Recent Bio Drive.

Washington.-Figu now available
on the Red Cross Christmas member
ship drive show total enrolment OF
900, or % per cent Of the pop
ulation of the United States.
OF this total the Red Cross had
about 6,0O0,0OO members before the
Christmas drive started, so that the
gain from the drive was approximately
100000 new members. The central
division, of which Chicago is the head
quarters, leads the other twelve divi-
sions of the country in the number of
new members enrolled Christmas week
BY divisions, the gains were as fol-
lows: Atlantic, 2,SOO.0OO; Central, g.
OO,OOO; Gulf, 3S4,oOO; Lake, 2,3O0, 900
Mountain, 276,000; New England &C.,
600; Northern, 65S,OOO; Northwestern,
$4,000; Pacific, 327, 600; Pennsylvania
100000; Potomac, 250OOO; Southern
$4,000; Southwestern, 3,25O,OOO.
From the fourteenth division, COM
prising all of the territorial insular
and foreign possessions Of the United
States, the new members added num-
bered $4,000
Unprecedently unfavorable weather
prevailed during the drive, SO that the
showing is considered exceptionally
good Final figures are not expected to
change the foregoing estimates to any
considerable extent.
One of the chief benefits anticipated
from the enlarged membership is the
addition of thousands Of active work
ers to Red Cross chapters where sup
plies are being prepared for our army
and navy and the military forces and
civilian populations Of the allies.
