The largest factory ships have sev- en whale mtchers, smaller tug-like boats about 150 feet long, with 1,200 to 1,800 horse power engines making for e. speed of from 12 to 16 knots all equipped with wireless telephones so they can keep in touch with the parent ship.

times they are found singly, other times in "bunches? If the whalers

are quick they can secure eight or
