interfere with the access of passengers to the boats and in all probability will be the cause of great loss of life in the event

of a vessel carrying them incurring any maritime casualty. The Regulations so far as they relate to grilles are in direct opposition to the provisions of the Merchant Shipping Acts.

Board of Trade requirements as to the Survey of Life Saving

Appliances 1920 par. 160 are as follows "Proper provision must be

made for access of passengers to the embarkation deck and for

controlling and martialling them and finally embarking them in the lifeboats in the shortest possible time". The present re- quirements under the Piracy Frevention Regulations are to keep all

passengers other than those of first class below the bridge deck,

which in all river steamers is also the boat deck. In the case of

river steamers all access from the main or lower deck is cut off

from the next deck above or from the saloon deck by means of locked spar gratings across the companionway. Passengers in the second class accommodation on the saloon deck aft are separated

from the first class passengers forward and from the deck above by means of locked gratings and grills. No officers or guards/below the bridge deck, that is the deck above those on which the majority

of the passengers (in many instances over 1000) are carried. In the

event of a panic arising frem fire collision or other aritime

casualty the people below decks would be unable to reach the boat

deck because of the looked grilles. The ships officers in the event of a collision would be fully occupied with their respective duties and therefore unable to attend to the unlocking of the grilles. If the guards had keys it is unlikely that they would have sufficient presence of mind or sufficient initiative to do anything of use. In some steamers which come within the purview of the Regulations there are something life 30 locks to unfasten before all the grilles can be opened. No means of releasing bolts simultaneously is feasible in ships of the class concerned. Furthermore owing to the grilles the crews of these vessels would have the greatest difficulty in getting to the boats themselves. In the event of an outbreak of fire or a callision and a serious loss of life occurring owing to passengers
