Rowboat Racer Beat
Columbus by 24 Days
Boston (U.R) Americans today are familiar with speed records
being set to all parts of the world and being broken just as fast.
But here's one record that isn't likely to be challenged:
Across the Atlantic ocean in a rowboat in 45 days!
The record was established during a rowboat race from Boston
to Cornwall, England, 58 years
ago.
The time of the winner, Josiah
W. Lawlor, was 24 days less than
it took Columbus to cross in the
oposite direction.
Both rowboats were of the
same size 14 feet, 11 inches
over all.
The other contestant was Will
iam A. Andrews, a Manchester,
Mass., piano-maker. His boat,
the Mermaid, had capsized sev
eral days previously. He had
righted it single-handed.
Brannan Plan
Held Socialistic
Secretary of Agriculture
Brannan's program of subsidy
to farmer and consumer was
branded "socialistic" by Lowell
Steen, president of the Oregon
Farm Bureau while discussing
farmers' problems before the
Salem Rotary club Wednesday
noon.
Steen expressed opposition to
the proposal for 90 percent par
ity being discussed in congress
and said that if agriculture
should be so favored other lines
of industry should be recogniz
ed along similar lines.
Steen likened the economy of
the country to a three legged
milk stool with agriculture,
dustry and labor constituting the
legs. If one becomes too short
or too long the entire stool tips
over.
The speaker said high produc
tion in industry, agriculture and
labor was essential to the total
economy. "Labor must realize
that shorter hours and a less
number of units of production
will hurt it in the long run,"
he stated.
. As for the farmer he wants
protection for his "right to earn
the privilege of getting what he
earns," said Steen.
The pair started June 21,
1891, and at the end of the first
month Lawlor's Sea Serpent
was 1.10C miles ahead. Both
craft had auxiliary sails to use
with a following wind but the
only method of communication
was via bottles tossed to passing
steamers.
Lawlor's log records that he
fell overboard twice in storms
and capsized his frail cockle
shell vessel once. He brought it
right side up only by jumping
on the exposed keel. His log
ended with this advice to future
sailors:
"Don't go to sea, boys."
