Representative at Conference in
Session at Genoa,

GENOA, Italy, July 6.-Representa,
tives OF the seamen and ship owners
clashed at the session of the interna-
tional seamen's conference when
Cuthbert Law. representing British
ship owners, presented an amendment
providing that the eight-hour day and
forty elght-hour week should be ap-
piled only when vessels are in port.
Mr.. Law said: 1.-The forty-e eight hour
week would mean destruction of the
merchant marine, which is the great =
est asset Of the British empire, and
raise thereon the black flag Of dis
content"
A representative of the British sea-
men. McVay, retaliated by asserting
that the ship owners had been the
greatest exploiters and had gained
millions during the war.
II you do not treat seamen as thew
deserve. 1t Is not a question of the
black flag. but of the red fog Of reyo-
luton he declared.
This was applauded by tho seamen's
delegates.
