Complaints have been made that the P. and O. are not forced by the terms of the subsidy to run twenty-knot boats, instead of their sixtoo" to seventeen-knotters. 1 has also been put forward that the Far Eastern and southern routes are better suited for in orcused speed than the Atlantic is, where the increase during the past decade las beon, about six knots an hour. To auswer these matters from the bottom upwards: It is the short passage that has the advantage ever the longer one in sorpo for acclension, simply becauso every knot per hour pat on over fifteen or sixteen means, proportionately, a much larger increase in the cost of propulsion, efficiency of engines, and resistance of Whilst the Suez Canal reverberation.. remains in its present condition aud continues to be the route to the Far Enal, it is next to impossible to run even RIBBONS eighteen-knot boats. What is more, the great increase in spoed across the Western Ma-Ocean has been only on its northern part."
