TIE 56,O00ton liner Majestic, for
merly the Bismarck, the worlds larg-
est ship, will be ready for service on
the New York-Southarpton run next
spring, according to reports just re-
ceivsd here by the international Mer-
camille Marine Company from repre-
sentatves of the White Star Line who

rooms range from one-bed room to
elaborate suites of half dozen rooms
each, with parlor, private sun veranda,
dlr1ng-room and private bath.
Exceeds Woolworth Tower
Here are some OF the dimensions of
the mammoth vessel by comparison:
The hull, if placed on end beside the
woolworth Building, would tower 164
feet above the skyscraper. Four times
around the ships promenade deck make
a mile. Two New York subway trains
could pass abreast through one of the
three smoke stacks. which are thirty
feet in diameter. The tops Of these
stacks are IA feet above tbs waterline
Of the ship and 1874 feet al owe the keel.
The public rooms of the ship are
great halls with clear spaces and lofty

wide, with ceiling "a feet high.
Turbines Weigh 375 Tons
The Majestic's power installation is
tie largest ever fitted in passenger
W ssel, consisting of four huge turbine
engines for driving the hull ahead, and
four reversing turbines. The weight
of single mair turbine is 375 tons.
1t is expected that the driving engines
will deliver a maximum of $4,000 to
So 600 indicated horsepower through
four shafts, to as MAN. propellers, each
sixteen feet in diameter. At ITO re-
lutions the propellers will dr. t.
ship under normal conditions 81 rs
krots an hour and at 1914 revolutions
at 26 knots an hour.
Although not provided in her original
design the liner is being fitted with an
approved system for using oil fuel.
She il expected to consume about 800
tons OF the liquid in single crossing
and her storage tanks will have capa-
city for round voyage supply. There
are forty-eight boilers.

In the World of Shipping

Further evidence Of President Har-
ding's deep interest in the problems of
the Shipping Board and of his initia-
tive IN directing changes of policy in
connection with the operation of tho
government merchant fleet was af-
, torded in the letter to Senator Jones,
chairman of the Senate Committee on
Commerce, which was read in the Sem
ate on Saturday.
After placing the responsibility for
the "unspeakable losses and intolerahlo
wastes Of the Shipping Board on the
doorstep of the former Administration.
President Harding expressed the hone
that the new board, with the coopera-
ton OF Congress, may make gratifying
progress toward the firm establishment
OF an American merchant marine. To
this end he recommended that the
board be not hampered in the matter
OF obtaining necessary funds and COM
petent executive personnel. At the
same time he gave the assurance that
expenses would be cut down to the
lowest possible degree by the discon-
tlnuance of lines of service that have
proved Improbable and be the adontion
of charter system that would safe
guard the government from the losses
1t has suffered to date in the operation
OF its ships. These new suggestions
are in addition to two Fundamentals
heretofore stated by the President.
namely, that the financial activities Of
the board shal. be set forth accurately
at all times for the information Of
Congress and the public and that ex-
pendltures be confined to appropria-
tons.
Lasker States Attitude
That the policy of the Administra-
ton ultimately is to withdraw from
the shipping business was indicated in
letters from Chairman Lasker to Sena-
tors Jones and Mccormick, which also
were put INTO the Senate Record on
Saturday, Chairman Lasker took occa-
sion to correct the impression that he
was IN favor Of government ownership
as permanent policy. His letter to
senator Mccormick was very clear on
this point, which is Of particular sig
| nltlcance to ship owners and operators.
we hope to be out of government
operation o. ships within a year, as
soon as tf/-c is healthy upward
movement IN world trade" he wrote. 81
hold that " must establish, as speedily
as we ma a privately owned mer-
chant mar ne"
and important statements during the
week, one disposing of the rumor that
hs intended to resign and the other
placing the board squarely on record
IN favor of bareboat charter plan as
substitute for the so-called "MO-4"
agreement, under which agents and
private companies have been operating
government ships.
Apart from interesting Developments
in the United States Mail tangle, crys-
ia lizing in the appointment Of steam
ship man and lawyer as receivers 20
handle the affairs of the company
pending adjustment of the contro-
versy, the boards officially announced
determination to wipe out the form OF
operating contract which has caused
the government great loss received the
most attention in shipping circles.
New Charter Plan Sought
The board made known its future
policy regarding the ALLEGATION of YES
sells in formal statement authorized
by the entire mem bership AS set

forth in the statement. the operating
vice president of the Emergency Fleet
corporation viii, within the next thirty
Gays, work out plan of bare boat
cnarter, with view to abrogating en-
tirely the present method Of assign
ment and substituting therefor an
agreement that will provide net
rental for the use of the shins. the
charterer paying all running expenses.
A large part of the enormous debt
which now faces the Shipping Board
has been attributed by Mr.. Lasker and
his associates to the existing agree
ment by which operators receive 5 per
cent OF the gross receipts on average.
regardless OF whether a voyage results
In profit. This arrangement. Mr.. I.aa-
ker asserts, made it possible for acentz
TO operate Shipping Board steamers al
gain, while the government, in most
cases, took all the risk and incurred
heavy losses. -
"MO-4' Contract Assailed
Mr.. Lasker's opinion of the present
a a. system was given to the
house comm!ttee IN no uncertain
terms, when he declared: "The con-
tract is the most shameful niece ~
chicane, lnetficiency and lootinr of the
public treasury that the human mind
can conceive"
me proposed adjustment of the
"MO-4" agreement has received the an
proval Of President Harding, with
whom Chairman Lasker conferrsd
on the subject prior to announcing tho
boards policy. William ]. Love. ]. Bar
STOW Smull and Adolph ]. Frev. the
heads of the Emergency Fleet CORPORA
tlon, IN whose hands has been place
Ihe TASK OF evolving bare boat charte
pass satisfactory to all concerned, will
eegln their survey by receiving sugges-
uons from shipping authorities who
nave mad dealings with tho board. It
Is not unlikely that mum Der of points
will be raised and varied views ' nre %
senteu by the operators.
Bare-Roat Idea Favored
commenting generally on the pro-
posed bare-boat charter method sew
efal executives Of large steamship COM
panles express the belief that under
PRIMARY conditions it would be more
desirable than the present managing
operating agreement, and there EXISTS
a spirit Of cooperation in the desire NJ
the Shipping Board and steamship men
to reach a new mutual understandins
that Will tend to get the idle fleet of
the mud and into the lanes Of com .
MERGE
Developm ents in connection with the
trimming Of the boards requested ap-
preparation for 100000, 900 indicate.
that two important undertakings which
Chairman Lasker had planned-the re-
conditioning Of the Lcviathan and the
settlement of clairs-will have to 20
by the board for the present. The
sum now being considered, s4s. 500 .OG0
IS said to be only sufficient for oper
atlng needs, and it was specifically
stated that none of the appropriation
should be used for the settlement Of
claims.
The litigation of claims. however. is
to proceed under the direction OF
Elmer schlesinger, general counsel Of
the board, and it is expected that re-
quests for money to settle any jude-
ment will be made later. Exclusive Of
suits pending in admiralty courts in
all parts of the country, something
like 100000 is estimated to be in
volved in the claims.

Men in Naval Uniforms
Attack Their Benefactor

Two men, who are believed to have
been wearing unlawfully the United
States Navy uniform. attempted to rob
William A. King, thirty seven years
old, Of 43s East 10th Street. yester-
day morning, but were frightened off
after they had beaten him severely.
King says the two approached him
as he came out of the subway. They
told a hard luck story and King, who
served in the navy during the war,
offered to take them home with him for
the night.
Just as they were about to enter
Kings apartment one Of the supposed
sailors struck him with a blackjack
King fought back, and the noise awoke
the neighbors, who called the police
King suffered decorations of the scalp,
eyes and chin and contusions of the
body.
A hat with the band marked ''U. S. S.
Carolina" and piece of blue flannel
from blouse were found in the hall.
King says he thinks the other mans
hat was marked "Leviathan," which
ship is now out of commission.

Peru Closes Harbors of Loreto
As Result of Recent Outbreaks

LIMA, Peru, Aug. 21-Government
authorities have closed the port of
Iquitos and other harbors in the De-
partment Of Loreto, it being declared
that this action was "in view of present
circumstances"
1t is assured that the ports were
closed because of revolt which broke
out in the Department of Loreto on
August 5. This disturbance is declared
to have been fomcnted by Captain Ger
vantes, but newspaper reports say that,
so far as is known, untoward incidents
have been confined to Iquitos.
