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
