A new decision is that the inland craft are to be divided under the direction of arbitrators nominated hy the U.S., who will also decide any coses of disputed ownership on the Danube. An Anglo-French, and American Commission will take provisional control of the vessels, and the profits accruing therefrom will be placed at the disposal of the Commission of Reparation. The arbitrators will decide as to the extent of the property rights of the Danube shipping companies! and the amount of compensation due to them for the requisitioned boats. The decision that the amount of compensation must not exceed the original cost of acquirement has been cancelled and the articles referring to harbours, waterways and railways are slightly altered. The Rhine- Danube canals will be under the same regime.

A DISABILITY REMOVED. A serious disability under which officers and would-be officers of the Mercantile Marine resident in South Africa have suffered from will be removed if a'resolution passed at a meeting held at Cape Town recently is acted upon by the Union Govern- ment. The meeting in question recommended that a Marine Board should be established, 50 that it will be possi- ble for South African seafarers 10 obtain certificates without having to go overseas, as is the case at present. There are numbers of junior officers and engineers in locally-owned vessels to whom such departure would be an immense boon. If the Union Government intend to follow Aus- tralia's example and build up a State Mercantile Marine arrange- ments would doubtless be made whereby certificates could be obtained within the Union; but the absence of such facilities at the present time is a source of dissatisfaction to many junior officers whose duties do not take For freight and further particulars, apply to
