tiers of Interest to Seamen.
Capt. NJ. P. Usina returned yester-
day from Washington, where he has
been for the past ten days attending
the annual meeting of the American
Association of Masters and Pilots of
Steam Vessels of the United States.
This is the eighth convention Capt.
Csina has attended as the representa-
tive Of Forest City .Harbor.
At this meeting there were about
sixty delegates present, who represent
ed the marine interests in every part
of the country. Delegates were there
from Alaska, Honolulu and the Phil
ippine Islands. Questions of import
ance to all were to be discussed as
usual, and on this account a large
representation were on hand.
Referring to the work OF the con-
Vention. Capt. Usina regards the move
ment for a law to establish a load
line" on vessels as an important one.
On all English vessels this sign may
be seen on the side of the vessel as
a guide in loading. The line, or load
mark, must not be below the surface
of the water. otherwise it will be a
violation of law. At present in this
country vessels are loaded to any depth
TO suit those in charge. without re-
gard TO property or the safety of
lives. Unnecessary risks are often TAX
an in order to carry a little more car
go.
This proposed law will be in line
with the objects of the association,
which are the protection of life and
property, protecting passengers on
boats as much as possible, and also
throwing all possible safeguards
aroundt property Grievances are heard
and the duties of members at times
defined with regard to employers. The
association sees to it that laws re-
lating to employer and employee are
enforced. 1t is the purpose of the as
sociaton to work in strict accord with
the local and supervising steamboat
inspectors. Another purpose is to ele-
Vate the men in the craft and make
them more competent in the discharge
of their duties. Before the convention
there were submitted some sixty pc
titions, some of which went to the
war, light house and other depart
ments.
