GERMAN MOTOR SHIP FOR GLEN

It is inderstood, says a special corres pondent of Lloyd List, that one of the three German-motor ships handed over to the Allies under the terms of Fence will shortly be put into commission by the Glen Lins for trade to the East. The vessel, which is named Fritz, was completed just before the antbreak of war but proctiently unused, as an appa rently could not be put to any useful servie while the war was in progrem.

Voss, of Hamburg, and was looked upon as something of a freak in view of the tact that she was the first merchant vessel to be equipped with two-cycle double- engines. These engines are still novel, as no further examples of the type have been constructed either in Germany or Great Britain. They are four cylinder machines, with cylinder diameter of 480 mm and a stroke of 710 mm., but in spite of the fact that the double acting two-cycle principle is employed, they do not appear to be any lighter than corresponding twe cycle single acting engines, which are ine atalled in the motor ships owned by the Glen Line. As one of the main objects in building engines of this type is to reduce the weight and cut of construction, it appears somewhat doubtful if the aim has been, achieved.
