It 881 is expected of the new liners that HI they will nearly double this, making BM s' least 2’. round trips The RH ordinary liner lies in port from seven HH to nine days. The schedule for the BMI afw Imers contemplates three 'days HE in Port on the European side, four days in transit and four days in port Bn on the American side. There will be H room for 1,000 tons of high-grade ■ freight and space for SOO passengers. H The passenger service will be one ■ class - first class. Strictly competitive rates are to bo charged. The vessels, BE °ii burners, with four propellers, each N operated Uy a turbine electric drive, ■ will carry enough fuel for a round M tri P. ".000 miles at sustained cruising HR speed. A vessel wil] leave port every N other day from each side of the ocean, M Scant Possibility of Danger M The vessels will load and unload M rargo by means of conveyer belts ■ operating through the sides of the ■ vessels and the length of the ships M obviating the necessity for hoisting ■ an fi lowering. M Noted engineers who have co-oper- ■ ated in the laying of the plans for ■ this line of ships declare that their ■ high speed, expected to be 30 to 32 H knots an hour, will enable them to M out run the waves when traveling in ■ the same direction as a storm, and to ■ ntinimize vibration when traveling ■ into a storm through the reduction of ■ t? movemen t on the wave’s crest. ■ e length of the vessels and the M newer things discovered in the last ■ e w years by marine, engineers re- ■ Ear ing balance and elimination of ■ ’'bration. are expected to make the ■ p w ships the last word in comfort ■ in sea travel.

Obregon I through a ruse in which he offered to I show the unsuspecting president- ! elect some pictures and then shot I him to death. Toral has refused to I answer questions as to motive or I “psychological accomplices.'’ pects to convert 25,000 English. Irish, I Scotch and Welsh to the Itanners of I the Four Square Gospel. I “Let’s see,” Mrs. McPherson mused, I “I’ll be there eight weeks. I'll aver- I age 425 conversions a day—that’s al- I most 25,000. I “Really the devil has been running I pretty loose in Great Britain, f want I to give him a chance to hunt cover.” I Trip Long Planned I Mrs. McPherson has been planning I her trip for a long time. I “I was going to go two years ago, I you know r ,” she said. “But then that I horrible kidnapping turned up and I I had to stay here to get things I straightened out. I “Did you ever know my persecu- I tion after the kidnapping almost I doubled my following here and I cemented my Four Square Gospel I more firmly than before? Yes, in- I deed, it was a terrible experience but 'I . it did do some good. Some people I still don’t believe my story but most I do and my congregation instead of I falling away only grew stronger. I “I was going again last fall but I then Mother and I had a little trouble. I That’s all settled now and it never I would have happened if others had | not come between us. | “This time I’m ready and nothing I is going to stop me. The Four Square I Gospel now has 103 churches in the I British Isles and it’s getting more all I the time. I’m going to put some I more members in the congregations I and prepare for mbre churches.” I Under her present itinerary, Mrs. I MsPherson will sail from New York I on Sept. 8. She* will conduct her I first service in the Royal Albert Hall I in London. | May Go To Switzerland ? Subsequently she witll appear in I Glasgow. Carlisle, Brighton, Hull, I Cardiff and then will conclude at the I starting point. London. j There is a possibility that the I evangelist may make a short trip to I Switzerland, although that is not cer- I tain. j Her son, Rolf, and her daughter. I Roberta, will accompany her on the I tour. I In the future, Mrs. McPherson may I make a trip a year to foreign conn- I tries in the interest of her Four I Square Gospel. S The Four Square Gospel now boast J 350 churches, most of them in the j United States and Great Britain. I Mrs. McPherson said that during the I month of July 30 new churches were I organized. I “It is surprising how this world | needs and likes the good old sash- I ioned gospel. ’’ she said. “There is no I substitute for it and I expect to sec | my Four Square circle cover the | earth."
