present types Many shipowners are aware of the number of times the guns were changed during the past two years, owing to the newer and bet- ter types being constantly turned out. The Committee of the Chamber of Shipping has had the subject under consideration, and îs not in favour of continuing the arming of merchant vessels after the war. The Committee, how- ever, is of the opinion that if vessels are to be armed the expenses should be borne by the Government, and that the gun and gun crews should be kept ashore."

I should like to take this oppor- tunity of expressing my thanks to the heads of the shipbuilding firma who have given me their loyal co-operation in the building of standard ships which, although unpoular in some quarters, wera, up to the cessation of hostilities, & necessity imposed upon us by the exigencies of the war. To the men and their leaders I should also like to say how much I appreciate their adoption of labour- saving devices. As a case in point, the serions shortage of rivetters, which in the early part of this year was delaying the whole industry, is to some extent being overcome by the adoption of pneumatic plant, and I am TEZY glad to be able to state that on no occasion during my period of office have the men declined to accept any such suggestions.
