BECAUSE the Dollar Liner, Preszdent Hoover, first all-electric ship built in America for commercial transoceanic service, completed its first round trip to Asiatic ports. BECAUSE the Talamanca, the first ship of the largest electrically propelled fleet ever laid down, was delivered to its owner, the United Mail Steamship Company. BECAUSE electrification —an American contribution to marine transportation— wes adopted by the leading shipbuilding countries of the world. BECAUSE, on the high seas and on inland waterways, Liectrically Seopa ships established new records for speed and continuous operation. @ General Electric propulsion equipment was chosen for the Preszdent Hoover, 173-24 for the six ships of the United Mail Steamship GENERAL ELECTRIC Company's fleet, and for vessels in many other classes of service.
