It is considered;-

(1) That, as long as the Police Authorities have the control of a duty which is obviously outside the province of their proper activities, so long will the Naval Authorities refrain from taking any steps in a matter which is so susentially maritime and which cannot be efficiently directed under any dual control. (2)a. That, as arms are indispensable to pirstes for the

prosecution of their nefarious designs, it is obvious that they will make them a principal objective, firstly to gain possession of the ship and, secondly to add them to their armament, it therefore strongly emphasises the contention that these arme are a danger and should be at once removed from the vessel.

(2)b. That the guards, who are neither sailere nor police- men, are not sufficiently intelligent to act in an emergency on previously formulated instructions without the steadying influence of a controlling European Officer. In no case has the initiative been taken by them, they have always declined combat and accepted the least painful of the alternatives of being disern- ed or shot. It is obvious that this attitude in an emergency is a hindrance rather than a help to the already outmanned Master of the vessel in any attempt to retain control of his ship.

That the control, as established by the Regulations, ie a divided one in which the influence of the Police is paramount, and to such an extent that the authority of the Master is largely discounted and is frequently sullenly resentad.

That even when reports are made to the Officer Commanding Guards as to misconduct (sleeping on duty, drunkenness, disobedience of the orders of the Master and Officers) the penalties are ridiculously inadequate
