ER GROSS TONNAGE OF 33.000 TONS, THE LENGTH
of 709 feet, the width of 83,5 feet, the height of 97 feet from
the keel to the Bridge and the speed of 22 knots per hour impressed
to her by the four turbine propellers, render the "Roma" under
every aspect the veritable Leviathan of the Italian Mercantile
Marine. Nearly 9000 tons larger than the "Duilio", which
until today has been the largest Italian liner, she has the same

nautical qualities, the same minute elegance O comfort and the same perfect service.
ler thirteen water-tight compartments, the longitudinal water-tight deck and the
double bottom which extends over her whole length, guarantee the strength of her
structure and render the "Roma" practically unsinkabl bio. Magnetic and gyroscopic
com installation, self-steering gear, loud-speaker telephones, a powerful Marconi
wireless telegraphy, 36 life-boats with Marconi plant, large enough to take far
more than the maximum number of the population on board, offer. the
full assurance of safety. @ But not less than her perfect technical and nautical
qualities, the passenger will have leisure to admire and to enjoy the luxury and
comfort which make the "Roma" an inimitable model of Îtalian good taste.
The artist drew his inspiration for his work from the greatest models of two golden
periods of Italian : the Renaissance and the Rococo, adapting them to the
necessities of life on board, yet leaving intact their spirit, so that the smile of
Italian art brightens the pascage across the Ocean, right from the beginning of
lis journey, or accompanies him on his return with the sweet rhythm of remem-
brances. n Deck B. opens out the wonderful stretch of the Saloons, which, a
length of 328 feet, alternates the austere forms of the end of the 15th Century

with the lovely ornamental traceries of the 18th Century. @ From bow to Sa
they follow one after another: the Hall of Entertainment, all mirrors and gilding,
the Grand Vestibule with the four adjacent Galleries, a triumph of simple II
forms and of exquisite colour and ornamental details, the Dining-Room, of a complex
rich and soft outline, the Entrance Hall decorated in the most massive Renaissance
style, the Reading-Room and the Children's Room. On the deck above there are,
besides the Bar and the Winter Garden, carefully decorated on 15th Century lines,
pleasingly adapted to the purposes of the different rooms, and the Summer Garden.

Large divans and comfortable arm-chairs, tastefully arranged, offer opportunities
for quiet rest and great comfort also in these rooms, which look more like the rooms of
a museum than the saloons of a liner. @] The mixture of art with practical comfort has
succeeded even more wonderfully in the "Cabins de Luxe", that one enters by means
of a vast stair-case or by a lift. Large, light and well ventilated, ‘with the walls tapestried
with damask or covered in carved wood, they conserve in form all the essence ol
the past, yet offer, in substance, all the comfort demanded by the most exacting of
passengers. @ Six small "suites de luxe" with bed-room, sitting-room and bathroom
and 270 cabins with 135 bath rooms can receive 375 passengers of the_" Classe
de Luxe" in the midst of the purest beauty of the Renaissance style. @ 5500
square feet of verandah and 12600 square feet of promenade on deck B; 6200
on deck A, besides the whole of the upper deck, afford the greatest posibiliy for
exercise and rest, over a total of surface which exceeds 27060 sq. feet. On the
ample spaces of the Upper Deck, the largest one measuring about 4000 square
feet, there are to be found all the favourite games dear to the North American
passenger. € The Concerts, the magnificent Balls, the evening Cinematograph; the
Gymnasium, the Information Bureau that fulfils all the touristic services, the
Shop, the Photographer's with dark room; the daily Newspaper printed on board, the
Reading-room with Magazines in every language and the Library rich with works
illustrating Italy under every aspect, provide a thousand ways for the amusement of

the passenger. :very Sunday Holy Mass is celebrated in the Saloon.

€ Everything, in short, is isa for rendering the eight days of
the crossing New York - Naples a week of intense,
unforgettable moral and physical
enjoyment.
