Not since the days of the old Yank ciipper ships has the United States made a single gesture toward re. gaining supremacy, ' U.S, in Speed Race Now, however, with steel and stean the United States lines are promising to write n new epic of the sea, In the hands of the navy department at Washingtoh, await. ing oMcial approval, are plans for two new liners which, it is claim- ed, 'will surpass in speed anything now afloat or contemplated."

But the leading companies of Europe are just as confident as the U.8. lines of showing a stern to all Atlantie competition, Plans have been completed in Italy for two monster ships capable of at least 28% knots, The Cunard line of England, out -| to regain the honors lost by its Mauretania has designed a speedy approximately 60,000 vossel of A June Lake Trip s Delightful FIVE DAY CRUISE Georgian Bay Manitoulin Island Sault Ste Marie via 8.8.
