FLOWN BY MERCHANT SHIPS
Flaos-rheir Use strictly Pre-
seribed BY Custom

The British mercantile flag is
known familiarity as the Red Ensign,
says London Tit-Bits- Strictly
speaking. no inland person has any
right to fly the Red Ensign ashore,
the only flag permissible being the
plain Union Jack, which the ordi-
nary citizen often flies upside down.
The Red Ensign has its official sta
tus from the edicts of two queens,
Queen Anne in 1907 and Queen Vic
toria in 1864.
The merchantmen of the colonies
generally use the Red Ensign also,
but by permission Of the admiralty
may add the badge Of the colony Gin
the hy." Some nations have special
mercantile marine flags, but not all.
The United States flag, for instance,
is the Stars and Stripes for all occa-
eions.
The German mercantile flag of
black, white and rcd dates only from
1867, and symbolizes the union be-
tween the Hohenzollern black and
white and the red and white of the
Hanseatic league. The Russian mer-
camille flag, introduced by Peter the
Great, was originally the Dutch flag,
familiar to him from his studies in
Holland. reversed. Later the ar
rangement of the three colors was
varied.
