SHIPPING NEWS.
Future of the British Merchant Service.
The First Sea Lord. Vice- Admiral Sir Rosslyn E. Wemyss, spoke recently in Liverpool st the annual meeting of the Marcantile Marine Sérvice Association. After expressing the admiration of the naval officers for the magnificent work of the Royal Navy Reserve, Admiral Wemyss said there were other men. not wearing the King's uniform or sailing in the King's ships, who were fighting in the war just as truly as the men behind the guns. They were quietly doing their duty un- daunted by the foul piracy of the enemy and unheard of risks He hoped that when the last gun had been fired and the work of reconstruction was undertaken, the mercantile marine would not. be lost sight of. The association which now existed between the navy and the merchant service was so close that it seemed almost incredible it could ever be revered. But it was an association purely of sympathy, and quite informal. Was it too much to hope that in the future there might be a more tangible bond, something that would keep them premanently to- gether and perhaps diffuse into the mercantile marine alittle of that organisation and kindly British discipl ne for, which every man was the belter and nobody the worse? To associate in one great whole all the men in the maritime profession throughout the Empire would mean the forging of a strong link in the chain which bound the Empire together, and it would create a force which no enemy would dare face. Captain Sir EL. Action Blake, the Deputy Master of Trinity House,” said he was not sure that he could go the whole way with the First Sea Lord în regard to the linking up of the navy and the merchant service. The services had a great deal to learn from one another, but each knew its own bussiness best. He agreed with the First Sea Lord to this extent, that it would be a good thing if the men in the merchant service were so trained that they could at any time form a complement of the navy, but he wanted the merchant service to be recognised on its own merita and not as a necessary adjunct

The actual time required for weathering" will depend on the structural import- ance and extent of the damaged portion, and unless this is com siderable, the vessel can returz to service after a much shorter lapse of time than was necessaTY between launching and delivery.

with 3 suitable Bon-porous material. The firet of these is generally believed to reduce the strength, and in the present position of the industry the naval architect will be chary of adopt- ing it. The second comprises the treatment of the surface with cement mortar well rubbed into the pores, coating with a special mixture, and painting as in a steel ship. Even when none of these special precautions is taken, experience in large tanks shows that though leakage occurs when the concrete is first subjected to water pressure, it gradually diminishes in quantity and finally ceases altogether. This pheno menon may be explained by the deposition of salts in the pores of of the material due to the notion of the water on the concrete, thugh the exact chemical react. ions seem to be considerable complexity
