Combination machinery oper ates the three sorow propellera of the new White Starliner 3 itannic This arrangement conti-la of two sets of four-cylinder triple-expan sion reciprocating engines driving. the wing shafts, and a low pressure turbine of the Parsons. type driving the centre shaft. The steam, after passing through the successive cylinders of the re oiprocating engines, flowa normal- ly into the turoine, and although the pressure at entrance is only about 101b, absolute, as compared with about 2001b. at the re ciprocating engines, the exhaust turbine enables the whole of the energy in the exhaust steam to be utilised before it passes to the condenser. Thus the turbine," notwithstanding the low initial steam pressure, develops about 18,000 horse-power, which is lightly more than the power developed by each of the two reciprocating engines. It is worthy of mention that the turbine is the largest marine exhaust turbine yet made, the weight complete being close upon 500 tons.

There are in the ship twenty ine boilers, of which five are SALINA-ingle-ended, the remainder being
