Luxury and Speed, Curiously enough, the bom ↑ been no increase of spavi tueur
rent with the liner's increase of dimensions. None of the more important concerns trading with New York has sought to excel the twenty-five or twenty-six knots of the "Lusitania" and the "Maure tanis." Even the Cunard Com pany, in their bigger ship, the "Aquitania," have gone bank to a designed speed of twenty-three knots. Instead of increasing the speed of the larger ships, th companies have utilised the great er space in the provision of mor comfortable, not to say luxurious accommodation. Possibly this i an.exact reflection of the taste'd voyagers, although it would b unwise to be definite an the poin just yet. On the liners which pl between Europe and South Am rica, South Africa, Australasi and India, there has, of cours been a steady increase of spee but the advance has been the pr grosa-especially in the Sou American service—towards gres luxury.
