Oct. 1: Success of Mauretania is claimed to be due to happy choice of dimensions and form of hull; advent of later vessels coincided with change in policy towards greater comfort but lower speeds; before designing Bremen's machinery, North German Lloyd had had no significant experience of turbine propulsion in vessels of any size; design problem of machinery is dealt with at length. Oct. 15: Determination of natural torsional vibration coefficient of main machinery; lubricating system; main condensers; boiler-plant equipment. Nov. 1: Main steam pipe lines; fuel-oil tanks; fire-fighting equipment; mean values based on results of first voyage to America.
