As long es these openings exist this superstructure is not taken into account in reckoning the net or gross tonnage f the vessel. The load line is fixed on the basis of the closed-in portions of the ship. although light cargo could always be carried within the super. tructure provided it was not susceptible to water damage. Even before the war some owner cio ed these openings and applied to one of the load-line authorities for the line to be reaes'gned. This meant that the vessel could load more deeply when carrying heavy cargo. Some owners have also adapted the same course. Eince the outbreak of war the Shipping Controller, not long sfter coming into office, asked all it was practicable, and could be owners to make the change where done with absolute safety. The decision was taken only after careful examination of the whole question by the surveyors of the Board of Trade, and thosa of the classification scieties, and was subject to the carrying out of any alters tions in the structure that
