"The dislocation of our schedule, due to the Seth Parker .ncident. brought no dire dietary -esults. True a we have had no eggs or fresh fruit since mid-February, but there is ample tinned fruit. It is sufficient to say that choice roast beef and roast pork at last night's dinner showed how we!] the commissariat has husbanded the ship's -esources. "The Duke of Gloucester in the morning flew in a United States cmphibian to the Gatun lock, where he re-embarked.'
JOURNEY RESUMED (Received March 5, 8.30 p.m.) At Sea (aboard H.M.A.S. Australia). The journey was resumed after the Duke of Gloucester had re-em-barked at the Gatun lock.
