venue cutter service reported 22 violations, the local inspectora of steam vessels 734, and the radio inspectors 27. The per- centage of scamen who desert from American vessels is relatively small, and desertion has osaasd to be so considerable a factor in American shipping as it was in the days of sailing vessels. The percentage of seamen who fall to report on board after having signed articles before shipping commissioners in ports of the United States, which was 3.07 per cant, in 1900, was gradually re duced to 1.89 per cent, in 1914.
