One evening in April a function- ary of the port, Kristjani Jonasson, saw an Icelandic trawler enter the harbour. Salling alongside was a Faroe fishing cutter with two boats in tow, in one of which were two men in oilskins. It anchored along. side five other Faroe cutters in the harbour.

The speed record for the Trans-, Atlantic passage is held by the Cunard liner "Mauretania," which has crossed at an average speed of 25.89 knots. In a single day's run she has averaged 27.04 knots.

SMALLER CRUISERS.

"Were I asked to advise on the subject of disarmament I would say: 'Limit the size of your ships; arrive at some limitation of the size greatest of vessels. One of the mistakes that was made at the re- cent Washington Conference, in my opinion, was placing the size of cruisers at 10,000 tons. That im- mediately put nearly every British cruiser. on the obsolete list, and it enforced a standard of 10,000 tons for every y cruiser built in the future. There is no reason whatever why a much lower limit should not be And perhaps there la settled upon. also an opportunity for economy in the question of administration...
