Queen Mary

New York.-A feature of the interior finish of the eueen Mary is the dominance of wood paneling. In the words of John Gunther, London correspondent of the Chicago Daily News, "very little paint, very little plaster or wallpaper have been used either in the walls of public rooms or cabins. Everything is in wood and the ship is a veritable masterpiece of wood workers, art,,,

The builders of Queen Mary took full cognizance of the agitation in the United States for the restriction or elimination of wood as an interior-finish material in passenger ships, investigated conditions carefully, made some experimental tests which went as far as actually building a fire in one of the rooms of the ship, and then decided that there was no justification for them to refrain from using the most suitable material for their purpose.

It is also re,called now that the Normandie is as generous in the use of wood as the Queen Mary.
