TOO-SILENT NAVY MEN.

£5,000 That They Will Not Claim.

WIVES SPEAK UP.

Thousands of pounds are going begging because the men of the Royal Navy are too shy to apply for it.

This is the position at Ports- mouth, Devonport and Chatham fol- lowing the decision of the Admiralty to place £5,000 at the disposal of the Royal Naval Benevolent Trust for the relief of young married | sailors who have been badly “hit" by the recent cuta in pay.

A Wider Scope.

So far, however, Navy men have been surprisingly backward in revealing the state of their 24th Mar. dornestic exchequers.

LOSS OF THE 'PETERSFIELD.”

Admiralty Lordships Hold the Captain Responsible.

The following is taken from Hansard of February 4, 1982:-

Rear Admiral Campbell, V.C. aaked the Firat Lord of the Ad- miralty if the minutes of the Court- Martial on the late Commanding Officer of His Majesty's Ship! "Petersfield" for the loss of the ship on Tung Yung Island had yet been received, and whether he can make a statement as regards the Davigation of the ship on that oc- casion.

Sir Eyres Monsall replied. The reports of the Court Martial have been recaived. From an examina- tion of the minutes Their Lordships ure of opinion that the responsi bility for the loss of H.M.S. "Petersfield" - must rest entirely with her Captain. On the after- noon before grounding the Com- mander-in-Chief on two occasions officers of their ships.

the ofrcumstances. His reasons for doing so are considered by the Ad-| miralty to have been entirely sound from the navigational point of view. Their Lordships are satisfi ed that there was nothing in these directions nor in subsequent events, which gave the Commanding Off- cer any grounds for assuming that the Commander-in-Chief had taken charge of the ship.

Underwriters and Recent Claims.

In its annual report the Liverpool Underwriters Association states that, together with kindred bodies, it intends to press for the passage of the Insurance Undertakings Bill into law.

This measure was embodied in the report of the Departmental Commit- tee which inquired Into the working of the Assurance Companies Act in 1928, but no further action has been taken, in spite of the fact that it Is largely non-controversial.
