At the same time, the Company has arranged to transfer the Korea Maru and the Siberia Maru to the northern Pacific route from its Orient California Ser-
markable popularity. The placing of the above two popular steam- ers, each of 12,000 tons gross. and the commission of three new motor ships on the route, heralds a new era in the N.Y.K. Seattle Service. The Hikawa Maru, the first of the three modern passen- ger motor ships for the N.Y.K. Orient-Seattle Service, sailed on her maiden voyage for Seattle via Victoria on May 17 from Yokohama.
At the same time the Board ap- proved the sale of the steamer Eastern Sword to Mr. Joseph F. O'Boyle, of New York, for £12,600 The vessel is a steamer of 3,532 deadweight tons, equipped with reciprocating engines and Scotch oil-burning boilers. She has been laid up at Staten Island since June, 1924. Bids for the sale of the steamer Contoocook will be received by the Board on May 12, following authorisation given the Fleet Corporation to advertise the ship. She is a lake type steamer of 8,630 deadweight tons, equipped with reciprocating en gines and Scotch coal-burning boilers. She is now laid up at New York.
Two sister ships of the Hikawa Maru, namely, the Hiye Maru and the Heian Maru, are now in course of being equipped, the former at comfort of passengers, the Com- the Yokohama Dock Co., and the many spared no pains in order to latter at the Osaka Iron Works meet the demand of modern dis- Ltd.,, and will be ready for their criminating ocean travellers.
