BRITISH OFFICERS.
FOR BRITISH SHIPS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, July 11. Mr. Flannery asked the Government to legislate to prevent ships sailing under the British flag unless-officered and manned by Britishers, in view of the number, of such vessels owned and manned by foreigners, and insured by British underwriters, which have recently been lost in circumstances suggesting intentional scuttling and stranding. Mr. Baldwin said he had read reports of such eases, but insistence on complete British manning would drive vessels from the British register, and thus would not be of national advantage.
