Sir Eso Chiozza Money-In the design of the standard ships: the endeavour is to construct efficient cargo carriers in the shortest. possible spice of time. Of course, nothing essential is sacrificed, and the vessels comply in all respects with the statutory rO- quirements as to life-saving As I hare before appliances.
explained, special attention is given to the crews' accòmizoda- tion. Mr. Houston-Would not 's little forethought have provided a more suitable vessel? Sir, Leo Money-lf the hon- member had to meet the sudden exigencies that arise in this war he would know that it would not always be possible to have that foresight. Mr. Houston-Isn't the Ministry infallible? Sir Leo-No; but we do our best.
Use of Tonnage by Controller. In the House of Commons. recently, Mr. Houston asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Bhipping Controller to say why the three-decked liner Hellenes, giving about 68 cubic feet of grain. space per ton deadweight, was requisitioned and used for the purpose of carrying coal from Hall to Savona and ore frour Spain, both being heavy dead- weight cargoes, thereby entailing great waste
of measurement space in the steamer; whether he is aware that a single-decked vezsel giving much less measure- ment to the deadweight would have been more advantageously and economically employed; and whether he can give any assur- ance that greater, cars will be displayed by the Ministry in the use of Britian tonnage. Blir Leo. C. Money. It was the exigencies: of war, which compelled the
Shipping Controller to use the vessel referred to for what would
be normally au unsuitable purpose. The Shipping Cog- d'lighttroller" is, of course, aware 7 a.m. that is would have baen 3 p.m. better to 050 single-deck p.m.vessel, but no sich vessel
