BRITISH CLAIMS, The failure of the Navigating THE Officers Panol of the British National Maritime Board to reach an agreement on the subject of increased rales
af pay for pavigating officers was the sub- ject of an interview accorded to a Press representative by Mr. T. W. Moare the secretary of the Imperial Merchant Servico Guild. Mr. Moore urged that it was essential that the pay of officers should now be put on a just basis, enabling them to maintain then- selves and their families in decent Įliving conditions. He pointed out (that although tha war bonus of £3 per month had been merged
wages, there had been actual increase in the pay of officers for close on two years during which time the cost of living had increased very sub- atantally. Shipowners had con- tended that with the exception of some employed
coasting vessels officers are provided with food at the owners' expense when on board their ships but this did not increase the financial obligations of officers to anything like the extent the owners con- Itended.
A very real source of grievance amongst navigating Jofficers was the abdicaly caused | London.
by the payment of overtime rates to other sections of seafarers, as. for instance, the stewards, sailors, ande fremes, who, by receiving this extra payment, often receive as much as, and sometimes more than the naricating officers, whose responsibilities are ia- finitely greater.
In support of this contention Mr. Moore quoted the case of a merchant cargo steamer in port for a month of 30 days. For their work during this period the leantain go: 243, the chief officer £29, second officer £34 10%, and the third officer 26 10. For the same chip for a month of twenty. eight days the amount paid in wages were follows:-Chief] steward 5 144, chief cook £43 5d. second steward £ and second cook 239. It will thus be seen that through the operation of overtime payment the members of the Catering department received mote money than any navigating officer sepe the captain.
After
that the absence, excep: its thi some of the big ines, of pruder pension sees wa *ral hardship upor navigating officers, Mr. Moore said that anather
