The following description of the motor vessel."Afrika," owned by the East Asiatic Company of Copenhagen, appears in Engineering Pictures of the vessel, which is the latest and largest of ocean-going motor ships, and of her machinery, are also pub lished by the journal.
The motor ship "Afrika," built by Messrs. Burmeister and Wain, of Copenhagen, Denmark, is, designed for the trade between Europe and the Far East and other distant places, her oil fuel capacity being suficient for a journey of one and a half times round the world.
The vessel is built to class 100 AL. British Lloyd's special survey, awn ing deck with freeboard, and with certificate for carrying foel oil in double bottom. The scantlings of the more important parts are in excess of Lloyd's requirements, and the outat and machinery are in every way of the latest design.

BILL IN THE DIET....
"A Tokyo message dated July 24 stres: At Thursday's session of the Lower House Dr. Teiji Matsushita, former professor at the Imperial University, Kyoto, introduced a uni- que bill providing for a revision of the system mider which dead are now buried or cremated in Japan. Inci- dentally, Dr. Matsushita's bill, which is supported by 24 Dier members, has occasioned stremous opposition and, even indignation among the mediond practitioners some of whom consider Dr. Matsushita's proposal in the nature of an insult to their profession. In introducing his bill Dr. Matsushita stated that according to the regula tions now in force dead may be buried! or cremated on a doctor's certificate Dr.

The foremast is equipped with a 30 ton and the main and misen masts each with a 15 ton derrick, The electric windlass for the 2,433 in. cable was constructed by Messrs.

For this reason, Dr. Matsushita pro- poses to revise the regulations so that dead should be kept at home or in the public mortuary at least for 72 hours and then burial or cremation to be made en a doctor's certificate. Many to regard Dr. Matsushna's bill as a medical practitioners appear inclined reflection on their profession as it is disposed to cast doubt on the validity of their death certificates as they are now issued, and debounce it as silly and unnecessary.
h
Apart from the merits or demerits of Dr. Matsushim's proposal it seems quite possible that many people may be buried or created while in a state of suspended animation. A most not- able case of apparent death which is still fresh in the memory of many took place last year in the case of Field- Marshal Count Terauchi who was pro- nounced dead by his medical attend- angs but some hours later it was dis- covered that he was only in a state of suspended animation. The con- to the Imperial Household Depart-1 sequence was that a report of death
ment had to be withdrawn and the obituary in the, newspapers had to be Count Teraucht lived for cancelled.

The machinery consists of one set of Burmeister and Wain's four cycle twin-screw standard marine Diesel engines of the enclosed, forced lubricated, crosshead type. Each hai. engine has six cylinders, with a cylinder diameter of 740 拉珩、 and 110
stroke, both engines being able at formal load at sea to develop a total 4,500 börse power at 115 revolutions a minute. Each engine is fitted with a main compressor for injecting air, enclosed, forced lubricated, and of the three stage type. According to the firm's tisual practice, all the other necessary pumps and the auxiliary machines are electrically driven, in- dependent of the main engines. For the production of the necessary cur- rent for working the auxiliary machinery, as well as the steering gear, windlasses, and winches, the ship is fitted with three auxiliary Diesel engines, each of 100 horse power, and, further, an engine of the same size is provided for the le frigerating machinery...
The trial trip was run on March 27.and went off very satisfactorily. All the engines were tested and were put through a series of manoeuvres, During the trials Leveral runs were carried out over the measured mile at an average speed of 13 knots. The engines form, the second-set bailt fpe this ship, se the first set was delivered to the United States Ship ping Board in 1919 When the machinery of the "Afrika" was half completed, the United States Shipping Board wished to acquire set of such engines- as soon as possible, in order to obtain experience with them; and the Past Asiatic Company con sented to the transfer being made
