Young Robert Robertson may only be a cabin boy, but, unlike others, the teen-ager relaxes in state in his cabin, aboard the now British steamer Bencleuch, which arrived here yester day on her maiden voyage from London. Even the Chinese ship's painter, 40-year-old Sin Cheong, has an identical one-bunk cabin, complete with armchair, convertible desk with wide drawers, rubber mattress, chest and lock- er, bright-blue pillows, two clean white sheets, two neatly-rolled blankets and a table-lamp.
