PLATFORM OF THE

HRITISH MERCANTILE MARINE

OFFICERS ASSOCIATION, IMPORTANT TO SHIPMASTERS AND

OFFICERS.

A MARITIME AND NATIONAL NECESSITY.

T no time is the necessity for united endeavour on the part of Masters and Officers greater than now. The constant cropping up of new features in the ever-changing surface to the shipping world, having many points directly affecting nautical interests, require the greatest vigilance on the part of the representa tives of our Mercantile Marine.

The work carried on by the combined efforts of this and kindred bodies is Increasing enormously.

Much of this work is for the good of every Certificated Officer in the Service, and in the general interests a large expenditure of time and money is absolutely necessary. While the wel. fare of the whole is thus jealously and zealously

guarded and advanced, the nasciated workers

reaping distinct and manifold henefits.

The work is necessarily limited, however, but its expansion is simply a question of constituents. Given the adhesion of every Certificated Mariner, and the direct and pulirect benifit to the British

Merchant Service will be incalculable.

The keys of the maritime world await the claim of a United Mercantile Marine to their possession. The cohesion. of every part will undoubtedly constitute the whole the rightful possessor of the appropriate power. Without this a thouand disintegrating fragments play havoc with a splendid heritage. The opportuni ties for a rallying of forces have been fréquently presented, but most have passed by unimproved. Again the signs are favourable, the claims are great, the call is clear, and the response should be unanimous.

All the creat elements in the composition of the Merchant Service would be healthier, stronger, and more prosperous by reason of n united brotherhood of nautical men. The Gov. érament, Shipowners, Underwriters, Shippers, and all connected with the commercial life of the Service would be invigorated, while the maritime bone and muscle would respond to the head and heart of a full-toned organization.

It is a necessity of the times that infinitely varied and world-wide interests be placed under responsible and capable supervision, and in no

Their history is a history of loyal devátion to duty; of heroic behaviour in the most difficult and perilous circumstances; of forbearance and an unresenting spirit while enduring wrongs and suffering grievances which no other class of the community would either tolerate or be allowed to bear-and that at the hands of a Government Department whose work should rather have been their protection than their persecution. The. record is entirely in their favour as lovers of their country and faithful servants of their Queen, and none can write otherthan admirably of the commendable qualities that have so long distinguished the British Mercantile Marine as ä whole.

The Masters, Officers, and Engineers may therefore be trusted to gradually unite their forces and improve their position, carrying with them the good wishes, and also advancing the Interests, of all associated with shipping.

to a man, but resourceful enterprise and patient THE Company's Steamship

But the work can and must be done. Maritime supremacy does not mean ships so much as men, and the latter are the most important. Capitalists are embarking in enormous marine undertakings, the populations of the world is increasingly on the move, commerce beyond the seas is a growing quantity, and men are wanted who will govern themselves, stand by one another, and advance

all round.

There need be no jealousies whatever, as the world was never more disposed to move in syndicates, companies, and combinations. There is scarcely a vested interest unfenced by some ring of 'sturdy vigilant defenders, and all the chief industries, whether in ships, colonies," or commerce, have their strength secured by some uniting band.

Without exciting any remark, therefore, or causing the slightest friction at any point, but rather improving and cementing the relations between employer, and employed, we urge as our watchword the unity of Certificated British Mariners for their special advantage and the general welfare of the nation.
