The s. Nitta Maru, crack new liner of the N.Y.K. Line has just completed her speed trials off the Japanese coast and will sail for the United States on her maiden voyage in April. Originally designed for the European run, the vessel will be placed on the Orient-California service because of hostilities in Europe. Shanghai will have a chance to inspect the new ship upon her return from the United States about the end of May, when she will be thrown open for inspection upon her arrival here.
