Continued from Page 6) carried out, consisting of an in- verted V. 12-oylinder four-ose o engine of the Werkspoor type, driving twin screws, and running, at about 250 rpm. The object of the design, which embodies many features original in Diesel engine construction, was to reduce the weight, and it is stated that by the arrangement adopted, the engines, though they work on the four-cycle principle, are less in weight than two-oycle motora of equal power built by two German firms for similar

gunboats. Another type of naval vessel ta which the bil engine has been applied ie the destroyer. In a boat of this class now under con- `siruction on the Clyde, a Diesel engine of 800, b.b,p. will be install- ed for employment when oruising. It. will the in reality only serve an auxiliary purpose, but the arrangement is interesting, and might be the inean of effecting pronounced economy in the operation of such vessels,

Although they are not strictly naval craft, in the sense of being war vessels, it is worth recording that there are now under can-

struction probably about a dozen
