At this afternoon's meeting of the to use the French Legislative Council, the Hon. Mr. de liner Normandle”on June 23 was proposed an amendment to the given by Flying Officer forary, naval schedule of the Plensure Grounds and lieutenant, at the court-martial at Bathing Places Ordinance, to the Gosport, at which he is charged with effect that private tents be allowed an damaging aircraft and causing rink any but within thirty feet of another provided they were not of people the Nor-erected mandie, and other ships, by negligent suc structure or within sixty feet

in front of any bathing shed.

Ie putting forward reasons for his proposal, Mr. Lo contended that it was unnecessary to mark out any special areas and segregate tents therein, as if they were unclean things.

Blying.

Accused sinted, that after dropping a torpedo during exercises, he felt himself being moved bodily sideways towards the Normandie. He hoped to clear the deck and land in the se, but he evidently hit some wire which tore a wing of the plane off and pulled the machine in an opposite direction. Accused added that when he landesi safely on the deck of the liner, the sailors shook him by the hand, any- ing he was brave.

The findings of the Court will be prappigated in due course.--Renter's Bulletin Service.
