LORD DURHAM ON HUSTLE,

If you can be freed from vexatious interference by men who don't know your business half as well as you do, I am confident that the patriotism of masters. and workmen will overcome our; present, dithculties. But if this vitally important business continues to be misinanaged by incompetent nominees of a Government, there will be no marked improvement We must have ships, we must have build- but ing yards, managers, and workmeu, there is no earthly reason why they must be run by Government officials.

It was only really beginning to bear fruit noy, and it would continue progressively to improve (Hear, hear.)

Lord Brassey said that the less into ference by the Government in the ship- building yards the better for the industry

Mr. J. W. Isherwood contended that had shipbuilders been allowed to build types with which they were familiar there would have been no disorganisation, but Triendly emulation and enthusiastic co-operation.
