FORMAN, Circuit Judge.
These are appeals from three decrees of the District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania 1 denying recovery to each libellant of a month’s wages sought pursuant to 46 U.S.C.A. § 594. 2 They present the following questions: First, does Section 594 require proof that the shipping articles were breached before a recovery may be had; and second, assuming such a breach must be shown, should Section 594 be read into the shipping articles so as to create as an implied term thereof the provision that the voyage contracted for will be at least of one month’s duration?…
