CHECKING UP ON SHIPS It is the federal government's duty .to. insist upon the Jiiyhest safety standards for vessels operating out of Ameri can ports. The public should be able to place implicit trust in the government seal of inspection, for it has no way of ascertaining for itself whether the life-saving equipment of i! vessel is in first ciass order, the crew efficient in handling ihi-.t equipment and the ship itself safe. Dickerson X. Hoover, supervising inspector-general of the ;.t-i.mboat inspection service, states that the "mere placing i f lifeboats upon a ship is not enough." These boats, he i V.-d, must be in a condition to be used at an instant's notice iiiid the crews must be expert in their use. New rules just placed in force by the inspection servics upon all ships of American registry are based upon these requirements. They also require quarterly inspection of all CURBING PUBLICITY MATTER prcsentatlve J. H.
