They are the ships that are bearing the real brunt of the war. They com- pose the life-line in the Battle of the Atlantic. They have a message to deliver to Garcia, like Rowan, and when they don't get through, well, it's just too bad. These ships weren't very ]nrzc“ maybe 6,000 tons. Their hulls were black. Their decks had been swept by winter rains and bleached by tropic suns. If you stuck your nose from Chile, and maybe coal from Cardiff or cloves from the East| Indies. They know Tunis and the .

When I first saw them at a dis- tance 1 thought, “Those ships need paint.” But that was a delu-i Ision. They had plenty of paint.| | They were only made to look that | way. A ship that is dull and drab! and dirty is hard to pick up, es-| pecially on a dark day on Lhc‘ ocean, and that is good. The hard-! er a ship is to see the longer it} lives, the better chance it has. { It may be that, as a phase of\ shipping, as a way of sea life, the | old fictional idea of the tramp steamer is on the way out. Wil-| liam McFee thinks it is. He thinks| the tramp, like the clipper ships; of other days, is surely destined| to go and in its place he visions| a swifter, cleaner type of ship, with hulls maybe of stamle:.s steel, and increased speeds of 16| and 18 knots an hour, Mostf tramps today average only eight| or ten knots an hour. Since McFee makes this state- ment one must place credence In it; no man living is hetter quali- fied to prophesy the ways of ship- ping and of the sea; he knows ships and has lovgd them and lived aboard them and written about them. ‘His “Watch Below” is a sort of personal ‘biography of the tramp steamer, its history during the last several decades, its pur- pose and its function. He says the tramp must go and he ought to know. | But stamm{g on the dock at West 48th Street that day seemed far away.
