Collector Stackable has received
from the Department of Commerce
and Labor, Washington, an intimation
that section 443S, Revised Statutes. is
to be enforced in future. This pro-
vides that-It shall be unlawful to en-
ploy any person, or for any person to
serve as master, chief mate. en-
gineer, or pilot of any steamer. or es
master of any sail vessel of over
seven hundred gross tons, or of any
other vessel of over one hundred
gross tons carrying passengers for
hire, who is not licensed by the in
spectors; and anyone violating this
section shall be liable to a penalty of
SlO0 for each offense.
Acting Secretary BENJAMIN s.
Gable writes that violations of this
character are becoming more fire.
quent; and, in the appeals to the de-
partment for the mitigation or remis-
sion of penalties which have been i'm
posed, the licensed officers offer as
an excuse or explanation that they
did not know that their licenses had
expired, or that they had forgotten to
have the license renewed, or that they
were mistaken as to the date of ex-
piration, etc
Owners offer the excuse that they
have no knowledge of the life of the
license, or that as long as they are
assured that the officer has valid
license when they engage him their
responsibility ends, or that they can
not be expected to know when a IL
cense expires, etc.
There is no reason why an officer
should not renew his license upon it's
expiration, and why owners should
not be kept informed of the status of
their officers, as every license issued
states on its face the character of the
license and that it is issued for a
term of five years" from date given
on the license, and the department
takes this occasion to notify all per-
sons interested that hereafter no len-
iency may be expected, and no miti-
cation or remission of penalties re-
specting violations of sections 443S,
Revised Statutes, will be considered,
except that it can be satisfactorily ex-
planned that such violations are not
the result of Indifference or neglect
on the part of either owners of Off
GERS.
