CHEAPER COAL LORD WILLINGDON AND

FOR STEAMSHIPS

A NOTABLE

DEVELOPMENT

are now

Considerable advances being made in the way of improv ing the thermal efficiency of mur- ine steam boller plant, following upon the lines of land practice.

Another important method also of reducing the cost of steam genera- tion on land is the efficient bura- ing of cheaper and lower grade coal by means of forced draught or other appliances, which enable an excellent thermal efficiency to be of the obtained, irrespective. quality.

This economical principle is now also, beginning to be adopted for marine work, of considerable lä- terest for river steamships, and a good example is the new L.M.S. Railway cattle boat," the "Slieve League," operating on the Holy- head-Dublin route." This very fine vessel, put into service in March 1935, was built by William Denny

Bros., Ltd. of Dumbarton, being 44'6" 310'0 overall length and breadth, with a normal speed of 21 knots. The vessel also. which is the third of the "Sleve" class is driven by means of two sets of "Parsons" single reduction gear- ed turbines operated by two "Babcock & Wilcox" water-tube bollers of a total heating surface

of 7900 square feet, with 225 lbs. steam pressure, and no superheat. The bollers are each fitted with hand-fired "Turbine steam. jet forced draught furnaces having a total grate area of 193.6 square. feet, although the main draught 1s given on the closed stakehold principle.

FORCED DRAUGHT

FURNACES

These forced draught furnaces have already given excellent re- sults on various L.MS. vessels with natural draught "Scoten" bollera, and consequently it was decided that the "$lieve League" should also be equipped so as to burn lower grade coal. The re- sult have been highly satisfactory, and there is being used relatively iq cheap coal in the shape of small washed slack of 13,700 B. Th. U. per lb, and although the exact figures cannot be obtained the saving is substantial, as compared with ordinary steam coal, and ob- viously also far below the cost of oll fuel:

FUTURE OF THE INDIAN CIVIL SERVICE

"Still The Finest And Most Interesting In The Empire"

London, June 5.

The Earl of Willingdön, ex-Viceroy of India, spoke of the fature of the Indian Civil Service last night, when he was u guest at the annual dinner of the Indian Civil Service, at the Trocadero Restaurant.

"I wonder," he said, "if you can'; ernment of India decided on thely realise what it meant to me a few policy, which was to Insist on weeks ago at Delhi when I sald obedience to law and order and wood-bye to all those Indian Civil to push on with the reforms, and Service officers who had so effec- į when the Services knew that the avely and loyally helped me during the past five difficult and trying years,

"I had bade those farewells be- fore, of course, when I left Bom- bay and Madras-of which he was

furmerly Governor-but on this occasion I knew that I was finally breaking my official ties, and all these Intimate associations. which I have held with your great ser vice for 16 years of my life, during which, from my earliest days in Bombay, you have guided, advised and helped me through the most interesting engrossing. and at times anxious, period of my publie life. It was a very sad parting."

FIRST DAYS IN INDIA Referring to his first experience of the Indian Civil Service, when he arrived at Bombay as Governor Lord Willigdon con- in 1913. Linued:

"I must say a word or two as to the fucure of the Indian Civil Service. It is an enormously im- portant question at "the presenc time, very particularly so as there seems of recent years to have been some disinclination on the part of young men in this country to take service in India.

"I am glad to learn that more. than twice as many British candi- dates have entered for this year's examination as sat in 1935, and that the entry S greater than that of any year since the com- petitive examination was reopened after the war,

"Very soon after I arrived I found all around me a very active movement for further political advance. To this movement off- cers of Government had greatly contributed without, I felt, sum ciently realising how much they had contributed by their devoted efforts to train Indians in the way of responsible government, so that they mgh! ultimately their own affairs, in accordance Altogether, the position as regards

Be that as it may, I have never experienced in your ranks other than the most un qualified loyalty and the most earnest desire to serve the best interests of India. This is in ac- cordance with the lofty ideal of the Civil Service of India.

"It surprises me to learn that there are

"i am one of those who belleve that if and when the moment comes that the Government in the future can say to India. We have fulfilled our great trust, we have completed our task, and can with complete confidence hand you over the entire control of your.country'

which would be the climax to the great service which my coun- trymen have rendered to India in past years even then it is, my be- lief that the long partnership between our two races will still remain, for I think Indians and British will still continue to work und co-operate for the benefit and progress of that wonderful coun- try."

On the "Elleve League" the main drought is given through the clos- ed stokehold, as already indicated, and the steam Jets are used as auxiliary when necessary.
