From Coal to OIL

Two big stoomships, the Kroon- land and the finland, are to be converted from coal barners to oil burners. This will be a high- ly profitable change 61800 being the expected saving on fael and $700 on wages of fremen on each round trip of each ship. In ad. dition, the removal of coal bunk. ers will permit the carrying of 1,500 additional tons of cargo, at a profit of £5,000 a ship for sach | trip at present freight rates.
