should the medal not be issued at once? It is very much like saying 'If you bebave yourselves till the end of the war and are good boys we will give your s present." Another point not made clear is whether the widows of the men who have lost their lives in their country's cause will receive the medal in the same way that sold ers' snd sailor' widows do. They have rendered just as much service. Nobody could work without the food that the merchant seamən have brought us. If they had failed to go to sea it would have been.i, national calamity. During a long experience I have never hea da merchant seaman refuse to take out a ship or say I won't go." There is no grumbling or growling about the pay in the Mercantile Mariae, or a man's' emoluments for lesing all his effects or injuries received. It is difficult for a person on shore" to conceive the responsibility and anxiety of a LIJN.merchant captain or seaman in war time or to realise what it means to bg on the bridge, perhaps for 48 hours, with all the worry of being in the danger годе Questioned with reference to the adoption of a standard uniform for the mercantile service. the Becretary said: like it, but a great many do not "Some of the men will, of course, attach much importance, to the question of uniform. The genuine old sailor will not be very keen about it. It is the later day sailors, who want that sort of. thing the young fellows who like to ran about looking pretty and who hardly know what it is to get their feet wet They are the man who want all the gold lace."
