The committee, however, se no objection to the purchase of a machine provided its use is confined to extinguishing fires on board ships, for which is eminently suitable, but they question whether such des are frequent enough to justify the maintenance of the necessary barge and staff. In any case the Committee of this Chamber do not consider that the cast of the apparatus should be met by lovying a fes on the vessels in which it is ned, unless the desire to make use of it is entirely voluntary and not influenced by threat of quarantine restric. tions.
