WANT CHANGE N SHIP SUBSIDY BILL

MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION COMMITTEE AFRAID
FOREIGN TONNAGE: WILL BE BENEFITED.
The committee ship subsidies Of the Merchants
Association has sent letter to Congressman
Grosvenor. chairman of the House COMMITTEES
Merchant Marine and Fisheries. which il asks
for changes in the Ship Subsidy bill II Is said
the letter that il evidently the intention OF
advocates of the bill to limit all benefits to ships
of American construction. but that the amendment
title 2. General Subsidy" ought to be in more
specific language to guard against foreign
becoming eligible and TO make the description
of tonnage consistent throughout tfe bill 1t is
also suggested that the Of the bill be made
mandatory on the Postmaster General only so far
as adequate service is available. accordingly al
lowing him to accept service from foreign steamers
as at present until American vessels are built
There Is "a general belief i'm the shipping COM
munIty. the letter declares. that the enormous
fleet of foreign tonnage recently acquired on
American account threatens to largely absorb
benefits which the subsidy bill designs to confer
on American built tonnage. and thus defeat the
justification offered for such legislation in the de-
velopment of our shipbuiding industry"
