DOESN'T STAGGER US.-We are
told that the American merchant ma
rine has been dealt ''a staggering
blow" by the Pacific Mail Steamship
Co., which will change its registry
from American to British, with Van
couver or Victoria, B. c., as head
quarters, instead of San Francisco.
The reason for the change is Uncle
Sans new seamen's legislation. By
becoming British this company
avoids safety first" requirements,
can get chief navigators at $3.50 per
month, instead of the Americans at
$275, and put in crews of Chinese
and Lascars.
We don't know how much this will
stagger the American merchant ma
rine. We don't have to risk our life
with ocean navigators at canal boat
wages, backed by a noble crew of
Chinese or scummy Lascars, but if
the American merchant marine has
got to stagger or have these things,
let her stagger.
