COMMANDS.
Captain R. G. Latta's Appointment.
It is announced that Captain R. G. Latta has been appointed to the comnund of the new 42,600- ton Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Britain, now complet- ing at Clydebank. It was general- ly anticipated that Captain Latta would have the new ship, not only because he has a claim by virtue of seniority, but also be cause he has recently been stand- ing by the ship in the yard to supervise her completion.
He is what might be described as a general service seaman, and n seaman to his finger-tips. Born in 1873, he went to sea first at
the age of 13, his first ship being the sailing vessel Arden Craig, and his first voyage a six-month passage from South Shields to San Francisco. After that he had very varied experience before he got his ticket, and afterwards in ships of all types before he settled down in the Canadian Pacific towards the end of 1904, his first billet being as fourth officer of the old Montezuma. The following year he was employed in a similar capacity in the Mon- treal and a year later as third officer of the Mount Royal, and subsequently in the Lake Erie. After working in the Montrose in October, 1909, he joined as second officer the vessel in which he re- ceived his Canadian Pacific chris- tening only. five years before.
In April, 1915, he was promoted chief officer of this vessel, and afterwards he became in succes- sion chief of the Milwaukee, Missanable and Metagama, to which ship he was appointed com- mander from July 26, 1917. After the Armistice he was for a time, marine superintendent at Antwerp. He has commanded the Monmouth, and in turn the Sicilian, Grampian, Scandinavian, Montroyal, Empress of Scotland and until recently the Empress of Australia,
Other Changes. The last-named ship goes to Captain E. Griffiths, who had the Empress of France for many years. He was born in 1874 and had his first sea experience in the wonderful little schooners that used to sail out of Port Madoc, later serving in various coasting and ocean-going sailing vessels. When he went into steam he join-
