Imprisonment for desertion in a foreign port is limited to one month, which imprisonment is left entirely to the discre- tion of the court. If the deserting seaman can show good cause for leaving his vessel the judge may order him set at liberty. Seamen engaged on any vessel, in the coastwise or foreign trade, may leave that is, desert in any port of the United States, or in any port of the countries previously named as included in the coastwise trade. The seaman leav- ing a vessel in any of th
...ese ports may take his clothing with him. He may also, before leaving, demand one-half of the wages due him, provided he has not signed the latter right away at the time of shipping. The clothing and effects left on board when deserting he forfeits all future claim to.
Advance is prohibited in all trades, under penalty of a fine of not less than four times the amount advanced and imprisonment for six months.
Allotment is totally prohibited in the coastwise trade. A seaman in the foreign-going trade may allot any portion of his wages to his grandparents, parents, wife, sister or children.
