mittee had not yet had a meeting, but
that members had conferred. There

shore leave. Proposals were for eX-

on the Tram system. Sports in the
harbor can be provided if men are not
allowed to leave the ships. Boat races
can be arranged. The Tram Company

people. The Tram management can
let the committee have rigs only on
a day other than Sunday and will give
no reduction of fare. There are Is

drives subject to landing of men from
