LESS SIN<ABLE SHIP COMING


The French government has con-
tracted with the Foundation company,
which is building wooden ships for the
Emergency Fleet corporation, to turn
out for it FIVE cargo 'nonsinka5le
ships" of 1920 tons dead weight.
The hull of these ships, says the
New York Sun, is to consist Of two
parallel cylindrical shells joined
throughout their length by series of
heavily braced diaphragrns. Each CYL
indrical shell is divided not only into
watertight compartments by trans
verse bulkheads, but also Is Isolated
entirely from the adjoining shell and
from the sealed space between the
two. The latter space, which has q
watertight bottom and deck, is not
used for cargo, but Is provided solely
for reserve buoyancy.
1T should not be called an unsink-
able Ship" said Mr.. Boero. II would
call it rather one Of the less sink
able ships 1t is seldom that ship
has received more than one torpedo.
1t is extremely improbable that ship
will be struck by torpedoes on both
sides. We have tested an expert
mental design thoroughly at Paris.
and have found 1t entirely satisfac-
tory. The space required for the spe-
cial hull construction does not mate
rally lessen the bulk of cargo that
can be carried. We are convinced
that the ship will keep afioat after II
