.PACIFIC OCEAN
DOUBLETRACKEI
SAN FRANCISCO. April 2.—Trafl'
on the Pacific Ocean has become s
lipavy In rocont years that steaai
ship companies havo found It noco
sary, for the sake of isafoty, to "doi
ble track" the waterways, accordin
■to the United States Hydro graph
office here. Routes affected by tli
doc!slon aro: Soattle-Yokohama, Su
Franc Isco-Honolulu, and Honolul
Yokohama.
Tho Pilot Chart of the North F
clflc for March shows well define
routes which masters of vessels nuv
follow. Of the throe routes, on onl
one, trorn Seattle to Yokohama, is
required that tho vessels “keep I
tho right." Vossols bound from Sa
Francisco to Honolulu ‘pass to th
south of those eastboiuxl. and th
same obtains with those on th
Honolulu-Yokohuma run. The “keo
to the right" rule, the liydrographi
office explains, cannot bo applle
at soa as readily as on land, bccaus
fogs, prevailing winds, ocean current
and other factors must be taken int
consideration.
As yet no necessity has boon foun
for planting traffic "cops" o
breeches-buoys out In mid-Pacifle, bi
optimistic shipping men believe tht
this may yet come to pass.
“Double tracking" the stcamshl
lanes of tho Atlantic has been i
practice for .some years. This is th
first thno. however, that the systei
has been put Into operation on th
Pacific.
