Swift New Liner
Has Legion's Name

Camden, N. u July 2S.-With a
new broom hoisted to her forepeak,
the 1%3.00o-ton Shipping Board liner
American Legion returned Ito her
dock here after a ltwo-day successful
trial trip off the Delaware Capes.
1t was officially announced by the
trial board that the American Legion
had met all tests satisfactorily and
that she developed a speed OF 20.92>
knots an hour. whereas her contract
called for In knots, The average+for
the three high runs during the trial
was 1876 knots. '1.i2
I The new vessel. a combination pas
senger and cargo steamer, is 635 feet
long and has accommodations for
about 400 frst-class and Storage pas
sengers. She was built BY the New
York Shipbuilding Corporation on a
Shipping Board contract and has
been allocated to the Munson Line for
service between New York and South
American ports. She will leave here
for, New York on Monday ana is
scheduled to sail July 81 on her
maiden voyage to Rio de Janeiro,
Aontevideo and Buenos Aires.
Il National, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey State officers Of the American
Legion were guests on the trial trip.
and they passed a resolution OF
thanks for naming the vessel after
the veterans organization. A tablet
with the reproduction of the Legion
emblem will be placed on board. 1t
was voted by the legion guests. "to
remain there SO long as the ship bears
the name American Legion and shall
ny the American flag"
Frank c. Munson, president Of the
Munson line. who was present on her
trial trip. said that a high class crew
would operate the ship and that he
expected her to break records to
South American ports.
Record runs re about played out
ron transatlantic liners," Mr.. Munson
said, but with the excess speed that
the American Legion has shown on
this trip we shall expect her to be
breaking records to South American
ports for at least four or five trips.
The benefit to American trade Of a
fast liner bying the American bag to
South America is obvious. No long
er will it be necessary for travellers
between the two continents to 60 to
Europe on foreign vessels to reach
ports in the same hemisphere, ,
II am satisfied that with passenger
vessels of the type ordered by the
Shipbuilding Board we can compete
successfully with other countries, de-
spite the higher wages paid American
seamen. The, American Legion, for
instance. with her oil-burning boilers
for special type, will prove to be a
ship Of comparatively low operating
costs. One of the Shipping Board
vessels allocated to. us for our South
American route Is the Aeolu, a for
mer German liner. Since the war the
Aeolus had her coal burning boilers
replaced by oil burners, vet, in pro-
portion. the cost of fuel consumption
on a vessel of the type of the Ameri-
can Legion is one third less"

he would be a strange looking fellow

large as Your head. He is NOT such
q peculiar fellow as you might think"
We'll, with a voice like that he
must have a mouth big enough to
swallow me. I never heard such a
frightful sound as he makes. 1t
makes me SILVER all over. Are you
afraid, o King?"
why should l be afraid. this little
fellow is not at all dangerous. Hear
him, he is coming this way. We
shall see himoas soon as Mr.. Moon
up" Tinker looked about to
see if there was any sign in the sky
for, the approaching of the Moon but
he could not so much as see a star.
II don't want to meet that fellow
in the dark. and it doesn't look to me
as though herewith be any moon to-
night. I don't see how you can see to
find the: path that, leads home on a
night like this.'' Poor Silky was
worried when he was with the. King

'Hoot, Hoot!' came a cry close by.

in a low voice. "That fellow is right
close here. Let US stand still or we
may run right into him and if he
didn't see us he might think it an en-
envy and he might fight. tell you,
Q King. l don't>want a fight here in
the midst of this darkness"
Don't worry, Silky, about running
into Bobby Hoot Owl, for he can see
in the dark and If he comes near
enough he will see who it is before
we know he's about" Silky was
more worried than ever. =
