P.S. I way observe that in the new circulars on "British Nationality - Naturalization" issued by the F.O., it is stated that "Foreign ships an allowed to count periods of service in British ships, or from ports in the British Dominions, when making a voyage round the Gulf" for the purpose of residence.
But it is contrary to my understanding that the statement may relate to a certain amount of show wording where the home country is the mother country. I over fixed formality in a book with Hust & His Dominem.
Communication on the letter should be addressed to the SECRETARY OF STATE, HOME OFFICE, LONDON, S.W.1, quoting the following number:

Sir,
I am directed by Mr. Secretary Shortt to refer to your letter of the 27th January last (which he regrets was for a time inadvertently mislaid) and to your letter of the 8th ultimo on the subject of the naturalization of members of the mercantile marine, and to say for the information of Mr. Secretary Churchill that service in British Transports has not generally been regarded as service under the Crown for the purpose of Section 2 of the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act, 1914, but that in any case of doubt the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have been consulted whether a particular man's service may properly be regarded as service under the Crown.
As regards the question of "residence" of seamen, it is not possible to make any general statement.
The Under Secretary of State, COLONIAL OFFICE.
