UNIFORM CHANGES.
SHIPPING COMPANY'S STAFF. (From Our Correspondent). WELLINGTON, Thursday. Important changes are being made in the mountings of the uniform worn by masters, officers, engineers and other ranks of the sea-going staff of the Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand, Limited. The new uniform mountings are those adopted in 1918 by the Imperial authorities for the standard uniform of the British Mercantile Marine, with some additions where no distinction of rank is provided under the standard uniform regulations. One of the reasons for the change is that various ranks serving in = the company's ships, particularly the passenger liners, shall be readilv identified by their uniform mountings. "
