 The law provides that in case of death, permanent disability or the loss of both hands, both arms, both legs and both eyes the policies will cover an amount equivalent to one years earn ings, or to twelve tim IS the monthly earnings of the insured, as fixed in the articles for the voyage, but in no case shall the amount be more than $5,000 or less than $1,O0O.
 Owners who fail to obey the law will be dealt with quickly and expensively. Where they evade insuring their men, the secretary is empowered to take out the required insurance with the bureau at the cost of the owner, who in addi- tion may be fired $1 ,0G0 for each mem Der of the crew he has left unprotected
