PILGRIM STEAMERS
Special Regulations Issued SAFETY OF PASSENGERS (British Official Wireless.) (Received 15, 10.10 a.m.) RUGBY, March 14. The Board of Trade has issued instructions as to the survey of passenger steamers registered in the United Kingdom engaged in the carriage of largo numbers of unberthed passengers or pilgrims in certain trades in the Far East. The instructions deal with subdivision and kindred matters and the provision of lifesaving appliances and fire fighting equipment on such steamers, and are based on rules drawn up at the conference held at Simla in 1931, which was attended by representatives of the Governments directly interested in pilgrim traffic.
