NOT ENOUGH
MATES FOR
AMERICAN SHIPS

NEW YORK. June 13.-On the day
before he left office President Taft
signed bill under which Uncle Sam
Is theoretically collecting hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars IN fines from
owners Of steamships. In reality he
hasn't collected a cent, although the
law is being violated every day.
II is known as the Hardy oiflcering
law. II provides that every steam yes
sci flying the United States hag Of
1000 or more tons burden. shall have
on board three licensed mates, II en-
gagged in run OF more than 400
miles and two licensed mates II en-
eaEed on a run Of less than 400 miles,
that vessels of from 200 to 1000 tons
shall have two licensed mates; that
smaller vessels shall have two licens-
ed mates on a run OF more than p
hours. and one licensed mate on
stcrter runs, The law applies to
oceangoing tugs,
Mates Are Scarce.
The trouble SIS that licensed mates
who arc American citizens are
scarce, and American citizens they
must be to stand watch on an Amer
ican vessel. With tho curious excep.
