Abstract
THE meetings of the Institution of Naval Architects opened on Wednesday, March 12, in the rooms of the Royal Society of Arts. During the three days over which the meetings extended, fourteen papers were presented for discussion. The gold medal of the institution for 1912 was presented to Admiral Sir Reginald Custance, and premiums were awarded to Prof. Gümbel and to Mr. A. Cannon. The Marquis of Bristol, in his presidential address, referred to the loss the institution had sustained in the death of Sir Wm. White, and hoped that some memorial of a permanent character would be instituted by the various societies with which he had been connected, and that such memorial might take a form of practical service to the profession.
