"DEAR ME. SECRETARY The sale OF
some of its ships by the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company has been made the
basis of such statements both by that
company and Ia the press generally
that it may he well to place before
YOU such facts AS are at this time
readily available.
1T has been alleged that the sea-
mems law forced the company out Of

called language clause would require the
abandonment OF Asiatic crews and the
substitution for them of English speak
ing crews. with a consequent prohibitive
cost of wage aud food. and that since.
therefore. the company could not operate

X. =. Schwerin. viCe-preS!dent and gem

istrred. II acted, SO far as the DE.
l,drtment kHows, upon an assumed in
terpretdtiou of the law, which had NJ
official sanction.
at seems, | confess, an oXtraordiUtry

of It's withdrawal was doing a business
which was probably more %prosperous
than ever in its history should hav,
