As the Board of Trade of course recognise, the Crews of our merchant vesels are performing a work of vital im- portance to the issue before ibis country and its Allian, therefore we would submit that it is only a matter of squity that they should least receive similar consideration to the sufferers in the bombarded towns of Saarborough, Whitby

Dalgety and Company are the Sydney agents of the company.

All the shipyards are working fall time, and this does not mein Admiralty ardere alone, for only the great yards can undertake work that requires such expori- ence, skill, and special equip. ment. Although balf our foreign ship-building trade is stopped, home orders have increased enormonsly in the last quarter of the year, and there have been strong complaints by shipowners that the captured German liners, which would have met their îm- mediate wants, had been with held from the market till the res cent sale.Manchester Guardian;
