§ Mr. M'GHEEasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether it is proposed to issue special insurance cards for seamen engaged in the home and foreign trades; and, if so, whether such cards can be obtained by approved societies and at the post offices?
§ Mr. MASTERMANSpecial cards have been prepared for seamen engaged in the foreign trade; those cards will be issued to the employés through the Mercantile Marine Offices, and not to approved societies and post offices. Seamen engaged in the home trade will use the ordinary employed contributors' cards, which they will obtain through their societies or the post office as the case may be. I have sent the hon. Member a copy of a pamphlet in which these arrangements are explained in detail.
