§ Major HORE-BELISHAasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, seeing that so much confusion arises in the distribution of cabins in ships, he will consider the desirability of having labelled 526W cabins for schoolmasters, as is the practice in the case of other officers to whom cabins are specifically allotted by King's Regulations and Army instructions?
Mr. DAVIDSONThe Admiralty cannot agree that confusion exists in this matter though the question is not wholly a simple one; nor can they hold out any hope of placing the schoolmasters in the list of officers entitled to specially appropriated cabins. It is considered the present rule is not ungenerous to the schoolmasters, regard being had to the claims of other officers.
