BRITISH CHAMBER APPEALS FOR NOTIFICATIONS
IN THIS CoUNTRY's REGULATIONS.
London, Feb Sat the annual meeting of the
Chamber of Shipping OF the United Kingdom to-
day points interesting to the United States
were raised. Colonel Emil Ropner. II. p, president
Of the organization referring 10 crimpiug and
blood money" in the United States, said that the
Chamber earnestly hoped that the British Ambas-
sador at Washington, Lord Pauncefote would sue
ceed in inducing the United States Government to
introduce legislation making crimpins a criminal
offence
Regarding ship subsidies Colonel Ropner said
the United States would probably pass Ship Sub
sidy bill, with the result that there would be "A
rapid extension OF the United States's mercantile
navy, and keener competition which would require
all the energy and enterprise OF British shipowuers
TO meet
The Chamber unanimously passed resolution
urging the British Government TO make an effort
TO secure the exemption OF British shps from the
payment OF the tonnage tax levied at United States
ports, and TO use its good Offices TO Induce the
United States, pending further legislation 10 en-
force the present federal and State laws in regard
the desertion of seamen and the payment of
blood money"
The president read letter from the British Con-
sui at San Francisco, saying that seamen are now
obtainable without blood money" but Colonel
Ropner explained that this because there was
always superabundance of seamen in the first
few months of the year.
Another resolution urged that the government pay
earnest attention TO the serious injury sustained
by British shipping in consequence Of the applica-
ton of the coastwise laws OF the United States to
the territories recently acquired by that country.
