COST OF PIRACY GUARDS.
CHINA NAVIGATION CÓ.
'LOSE THEIR CASE.
The legal Hability of shipowners to pay for guards provided by the Crown for ships trading in Chinone waters was argued before Mr. Justice Row- latt in the King's Bench Division on May 18 in an action brought by the China Navigation Co., Ltd. of Bliliter- square, E.C., against the Attorney- General.
The company sought a declaration that it was not bound to pay for the TYLA that guards, and the defence, there was a contractual relation be- tween the parties providing that the payments should be made,
Sir Leslie Scott, R.C., for the com. pany, sald the action related to the clalm of the Crown to compel ship. owners to pay for the cost of project- ing British shipping in the China cas against piracy. Early in 1930 the Crown decided that after March 31, 1030, guards would only be supplied for a limited partod on condition that the shipowners paid for the full cost.
His Lordship: You have had the guards, and the question I bave to: decide is whether you have to pay for them after that date?

Sir Leslie: That is the point.
