Who Wouldn't'
Be A Sailor
( By Chester•;A. Bloom)
OTTAWA: Officers and ratings of
the. -Royal Canadian Navy will share
in the. prizes taken during :this war
by the. British Royal Navy, as well'as
in prizes taken by their own, it has
been announced at naval headquar-
ters here. But sailors ,are warned
that it may be four or five year's be-
fore the final distribution. • •
This follows the practice in' ,the
last war' vben nearly ''five years .elap-
sed before distribution...,of,• the prize
money. The prize mosey 0!' „the Jest
war totelled about 14.,000,00'n English
pounds.' It was distributed according
to rank. 'Admirals then received 3,000
pour},4as••.•e'aptains S0'U pounds, able sea-
men 25 polrnds,.and "boy's" 15 pounds: -
The' First Lord of the Admiralty,
Lord • Alexa der, has Aeneienced ..i -n.
London„ that not only is .this the last
time when such prize' money''will be
distributed, but it will be split up on
the ,basis of "a very much narrower
variation -between ranks. But he
would' not say 'in what degree.
This might look like more money,
coining to the sailors. but, there are
Several reasons why that is • unlikely.
In the first place. the navy personnel.
is' vastly greater in this war than the
last one. 'Further, Lord alexandereanee
pounced that this time the Royal Air
Force will be included in the distri-
bution. No doubt, the • same win be
true in Canada, ' "'
Prior to the last war, prize money
was.,,de tributed among the actual cap=
tors • of enemy vessels. But it Was
recognize!' then that. modern condi-
tions of naval service nhade this un-
fair to 'tliose -whose service in the
fleet prevented them frdni being pre-
sent at the capture of a prize. So it
Iva, decided that ell serving a.etive:y
in the, navy Should be included. The
same practice will be followed in this
last of all naval prize money tlistri=
but lone, -
Ownership of then total .prize fund
still vested in the- Crown and, can
only be granted to. the Navy .under -
royal warrant, Before' Henry VIII,
the King's share was orae -fourth, o(vri=
ens of ships which took prizes, get A
fourth, 'and the other ' half •went to
the officers and Men capturing them.
Under Heni•y VIII, a new, regulation
gave the king one-half of the prize
money, all ships over 200 tons, all
the guns' and "Apparel.".. This rule
prevailed. under' Queeir Elizabeth who,
however, made 'private bargains with
her seamen. ' -
in 1649, un,tei• the Commonwealth,
an Act gave one=half of all the prize's
to the captors and the other half to
tee Admiralty. Under Queen Anne,
the 'Bole "of tlpe prize fund- was vest-
ed in the Crown which then trane-
fer'recl.. its share 'by -royal warrant to
the captors. 'The act laid emelt with
great exactness the ratio of sbares
from the admirals clown to seamep.' a
The prize fund l's still vested en-
tirely in the Crown and gfa,nted by
rival warrant fo the navy. Acts grass-
ed By Willi;im'ty an queen Victoria
restated theeinci le
p p ,and it w• r f s t' u r•
ther elaborated in the prize act of
1864 still in' force,
Many great English fortunes were
•founded on early naval prizes from
Drake's voyage onward. When
Drake's ship, the ,•Pelic'en,..-exientuaily
returned to Plymouth from her cir-
cumnavigation of the world, she car-
ried '2,000.000 dueats worth- of - gold,
