The most which they were intended; but it recent expression of that policy is to was a distinct novelty to see the be found in the Merchant Marine colossus actually moving from the Act, 1920, which is popularly known bath in Shoreham Harbour and as the Jeres Act, from the name of breasting the Channel. Thousands of the father of the Bill, Senator Jones. people assembled at every point of This Act, which was formally ap

There proved by the President as recently was no getting very near the scene as June 5, 1920, commences with a of operations, for the Admiralty declaration that it is the policy of the officials, who had charge of the United States to do whatever may arrangements, absolutely refused to be necessary to develop and encour allow anybody on the side of the age the maintenance of a merchant barbour which has been in their marine of its own, of the best equip- occupation during the progress of ped and most suitable types of vessels construction of the ships; but the Sufficient to carry the greater portion crescent-shaped coast-line, extending of its commerce and serve as a naval over twelve miles, with the heights for military auxiliary in time of war forming the spur of the Southdowns, or national emergency, and it enjoins commanded the whole situation, and the United States Shipping Board when after an hour's suspense the always to keep this in view as the figme of a man, looking like an primary end to be attained.

Next mystery of the purpose of these Goliaths, nothing excited more speculation than the probabili- ties of getting them out of the harb our. Some ancient marines of the port were positive that the thing was impossible. But the Admiralty, while realising that there would be difficulty enough in 'negotiating the narrow channel between the "piers, were con- fident that, given sufficient water at high tide, the feat was perfectly practicable. The result fully justified that anticipation. Enormous dredgers bad removed the accumulation of sand and shingle on the bar, securing a depth of 21ft of water. As the lower ship drew 13ft Gin, that gave a safe margin for navigation.
OUT AT SEA.
In 1917 the Beard took over the German ships in the United States harbours, and by Section 4 of the new Act all vessels acquired by the President under certain war legisla-1 tion are transferred to the Board, except vessels in the military and naval service. It may therefore be assumed that the Board are already owners of a large Beet of merchant vessels. It is not, however, within the general intention of the statute that they should act permanently as shipowners, so they are directed to sell their vessels as soon as may be practicable and consistent with good business methods.
