SCHWAB MAKES PLEA
FOR MERCHANT MARINE
Tells Pittsburgh Business Men
American Ships Are Needed to
Carry American Commerce.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, November 25-
Predicting that the United States is to
be the industrial and financial leader of
the world. Charles NJ. Schwab, head of
the Bethlehem Steel Company, before
an audience of approximately 1000
business men here yesterday, pleaded
for the construction of American ships
to carry American commerce.
Il learn today that every sidetrack
along the Pennsylvania railroad be-
tween here and New York is crowded
with loaded freight cars awaiting
transportation facilities across the
water to foreign markets." said Mr..
Schwab, who was the guest of the
Chamber of Commerce. This mighty
tonnage is being held up to the detri-
ment of the country because there are
no ships to carry it. American export
ers generally are unhappy over their
inability to find the vessels that will
place their goods where they can be
used. l am ashamed to say that l have
been compelled to go to foreign coun-
tries to get ships to bring iron ore to
our furnaces"
Mr.. Schwab also argued at length for
the free transportation of American
commerce through the Panama canal.
