The function is an annual affair, and the bell of some historic ship is always used to mark the hours at the entertainment. NEW WHITE STAR LlNEß.—Negotiations which have been in progress between Messrs. Harland and Wolff, Ltd., and the White Star Line, for the construction of a new Atlantic passen- , pep liner have now been completed. It is understood that she will be between 25.000 and 30.000 tons. She is to be I propelled by double-acting Diesel en- j gines of the Harland/B. and W. type ' and will thus be the largest British motor liner. The hull and machinery are to be built in Belfast. The White Star Line also intends to build a liner of the Olympic type, toward the construction of which the Government of Northern Ireland has given a guarantee under the Loans Guarantee Acts, but there is no sign yet of a beginning being made with this ship. The vessel just ordered will be the first of the White Star fleet to be driven by Diesel engines.
