BG GERMANLIVER OFF FOR NEW YORK Bremen to Try for Speed Rec- ord in Maiden Voyage Across Atlantic. By the Assoclated Press. BERLIN, July 16—German shipping | makes its renewed bid for world-wide | patronage this afternoon with departure at 5 pm. (11 am. Eastern Standard ‘Time), of the glant luxurious new liner, the Bremen, for New York. Leaving Bremerhaven, the ship will call at the channel ports of Southamp- ton and Cherbourg, and probably will ‘attempt to make & new Westward cross- ing speed record to America. A six-day crossing from Bremerhaven is expected. One of the ship's chief construction engineers said: “Despite repeated press statements that the Bremen is not out to capture the blue ribbon of the ocean, there is no doubt she will try to establish a new speed record on her maiden trip. “'Speed tests made before the Bremen passed into the pogsession of the North German Lloyd Co. make me confident she will prove the fastest liner on the Atlantic.” The previous Westward crossing rec- ord was made by the Mauretania in| July, 1928, being 5 days 3 hours 17 minutes. The Mauretania, in August, | 1924, made an Eastward crossing of 5 | days 1 hour and 49 minutes, Departure of the Bremen today has been hailed as one of the produest mo- ments in Germany’s post-war life, the begiming of the rehabilitation of her shipping, which suffered nearly s fatal blow with loss of the Vaterland (Levia- than), and the Imperator (Berengaria), and other vessels at the end of the war. ‘The Bremen is a 46,000-ton vessel. ‘The Europa, its sister ship, has just been re-launched from dry dock after the dis- astrous fire aboard her last March, A Hamburg dispatch said as it slid off the dock Suntlay there was an unexplained explosion at the rear of the berth which damaged the dock, and might have damaged the ship.
