July 4. this year marks the 145th
anniversary of the Declaration of In
dependence
On July 4. 1776. the Declaration
OF Independence was reported to
the Continental Congress and was
adopted.
The signatures of many of the
delegates to the declaration were de-
layed. awaiting instructions from
their respective colonies and the
document did not bear the names of
all the delegates until Aug >.
Programs intended to arouse the
patriotism of the people and at the
same time pay tribute to the signers
OF the Declaration of independence
were the intended features of the
celebration of the Fourth of July.
Accidents due to carelessress in
the handling OF explosives brought
about the campaign for a safe and
Sane Fourth" During the years 1903
to 1910. inclusive. 1852 persons
were killed and 35.62O injured by
the use of explosives, firearms and
fireworks on July Fourths of those
years he SaIe ana sane cam
paign began to make itself felt in
1911 and annually since there has
been marked decrease in casual
ties.
Three presidents of the United
States died on July 4: John Adams
and Thomas Jefferson in 1926, and
James Monroe, in 1881.
Many attempts have been made to
secure legislation which would pro-
hibit the staging of sporting events
on July 4, but except for the local
action of state legislatures and mu-
nicipal enactment no success has
met the endeavors to preserve the
day to the observance of a patriotic
memorial to the founders of the re-
public.

! revolved by the engine we're often

by the invention of the screw pro
peller and the further development
of the compound engine. steam be
gan chasing the white winged sail
| ers from the sea.
For several years the recipro-
eating engins was the popular drive
for men of war and merchant ships,
but with the perfection Of the
steam turbine. marine men turned
from the old engine to the compact
turbine drive in which the rotary
motion Of the turb ne was trans
mitted TO the propeller either di-
rect. in 4 few fast ships. or through
speed reducing gears. such is are
now common.
The idea of driving a huge mer-
chant ship through the seas with
the ease with which a motorman
dr. YES street car may seem al
most humorous, but today ships are
riding the waves. and many more
are to be equipped. whose basic
scheme on drive ard control is sim
liar to that of Il car.
The first trial Of electric drive on
board ship was made in 1908 on
two Chicago freboats. 1t was an
UNQUALIFIED success on the little fire
fighters.
The drive was next used by the
United States N1vy on the collier
Jupiter, now the u. s. S. LANG
ley" mother ship for nirplanes.
and its success on this ship led to
its adoption by the navy as stand
ard drive on the new battleShips and
cruisers now being built.
A comparison of the ope rat nC
records o. the New Mexico with
those of her sister ships. the Mis-
sissippi and Idaho, brings out some
interesting facts. Steaming at low
speed the turb ne driven sister
ships burn 20 per cent more fuel
IIidn the pIttlTltdIt uI!NtI Ne"
Mexico. while at full speed they
burn 322 per cent more. a con
vincing argument for electric drive
Greater and more flexible power is
attained with far simpler mechan-
ism. requiring fewer operatives. 1t
is even possible in emergencies for
this huge ship to run at cruis ng
speed with an engine room crew of
one man, the electric mechanism
requires so little attention.
Today. we are watching with in
terest the development of our mer-
chant marine. The maiden trip of
the 40 foot Eclipse Il steamer
converted into the first electrically
driven cargo carrier in the United
States, is convincing proof of the
fitness Of this type of drive for
merchant ships. Her electric equip
ment consists OF a steam turbine
