HUGE GERMAN DOCK
BEING TOWED TO MALTA . LONDON, May 31. Six large tugs are towing to Malta a former German floating dock 900 ft. long, for accommodating a 35,0000-ton battleship. The Admiralty previously intended to send the dock to Singapore but has decided that a graving dock is more suitable and less likely to be damaged by aircraft.
