SEAMAN'S LAW GREAT AID
TO OVER-WORkED SAILORS
Owners Unduly Alarmed Make
Threats Of Impairing Lake
Service.
NOVEMBER FIRST NEW
SYSTEM TAKES EFFECT
Better and More Efficient Men
Will Be Required-1mproved
Life Saving Equipment.

There is divided opinion in marine
circles regarding the. La Toilette sea-
mems law, which goes into effect in
November.
Boat owners do not like it. Lake
farlng men. who have to so out in all
kinds of weather and under condi-
tions over which they have no con-
troll, hail the law with satisfaction.
Passenger steamboat men hint that
increased passenger rates will result.
This is due they say to the Increased
number of men required in the crews
and to the space the added number
of life boats will require, that might
otherwise be given up to berths.
Owners Make Threats.
The Lake Michigan Passenger as
sociation recently sent out a circular
in which 1t was declared that the
merchant marine will be driven from
Lake Michigan because the bill raises
the cost of operation of boats to a
prohibitive figure. Men about the
docks say the owners are unduly
alarmed.
The law may do away with one
passenger deck for the storage of
boats, but it will add 50 much to the
safety Of travel by water that more
persons will venture on the boats, ="
said Charles Bradhering. business
agent of the Lake Seamen's union in
Milwaukee.
THE NAY Certain hnats hiring
crowds to milwaukee, during the ex-
custom season suggest possibilities
worse than the Gen. Slocum.
Means Shorter Hours.
The bill is a good thing, and no
one realizes that more than the men
who have sailed out of lake ports for
years and been fearfully overworked
by the boat owners.
Think of men being on duty a
straight SO to 40 hours, and yet that
every thing has happened to me on
ore boats when 1 was wheelsman.
The new law will provide a three
watch instead Of a two watch system
for firemen. They used to have six
hours on and six hours off, now they
will have three hours on and rest six
hours.
Helps Common Seamen.
This is for the engine room crew
the firen1en, oilers, coal passers and
water tenders. In the captains de-
spartment there will be straight
. .watch-six hours on, six off,
The act, Bradhering said, will put
a better class of men on the boats
and mean more efficiency. The life
saving equipment will be better be.
cause OF the increased percentage OF
able seamen.
=. Another thing that pleases the men
is that those in the fire room of q
boat, and therefore overheated, can
. not be called On deck to handle lines
p. in all kinds Of weather.
