Preacher Gets Vacation
(North Bend Harbor)
Robt. Banks, ol the firm of
Kruse & Banks ship builders state
C. A Smith is planning to build
a 17 knot passenger boat for use
between here and San Francisco.
He has Architect Hough, who
planned the Adeline Smith, now at
work on the plans and says the boat
will be built if the sale of the Re­
dondo is made. It appears that it
will be necessary to confine all the
general freight to the new and fast­
er boat in order to make it pay.
Should the Smith Company de­
cide to build the new boat it will
mean a 24 hour trip to San Fran­
cisco as against 40 to 60 hours which
is the schedule of the present ser­
vice.
