Dominions To Share In Captured Ships
LONDON. Nov. 1 (Rec. 8 15 p,m.) The Dominions are to receive their share of the total prize money from the sale of captured ships and cargo during the war, says “The Times.” Under the new Prize Bill it is proposed that two separate prize funds shall be established, one for the Royal Navy and Marines amounting to £.4,000,000, and one for the R.A.F. amounting to £1,250.000.
The Dominions will receive their share of the total prize money allocated based on the peak numbers of Naval, Marine, and Air Forces raised by their Governments during the war.
