Colonial Secretary states: (a) "It is the experience of this Govern. ment that ship's officers do smug gle, and that they do receive money far shutting their eyes to what is going on: also (by "The Govern meat has made it a role thał pru- secutions are not to be instituted unless it is possible to prove negligence or connivance en the part of the ship's officers." Further c) "Cases occur in which a hole is out m an engine-room bulkhead, or the panelling is remored bodily from the saloon, in which cases there is either gross neglect of duty or some connivance by the responsible officer.**
