ROOM FOR A GOOD UNDERSTANDING.
Then there is another reason which compels us to a common understanding on these points, and that is the, sea itself. Land communities can maintain a separateness and individuality, but ships constantly wander from one sea and one jurisdiction to another, and the legislative protection of the land labourer and that of the seaman are two different things. This difficulty was neatly hit off bj. th& Premier of Australia, when he ridiculed the idea, of "a White Ocean."

All the experience of recent years answers, '-'No." Still, thsie is room for a good understanding.
