PORT AIDS RESENT
COCKTAILS ACTION
Quartermaster Chiefs At
tack on Shipping Costs
Called Unfair
INVESTIGATION STARTED
Rates Here Lower Than in
New York-Government
Called Fxtravagant

Major General Goethals, head of the
quartermaster department, will be
asked to prove mis- charges that the costs
Of shipping materials from this port arc
excessive.
His announcement that Philadelphia
would be dropped as an army export
port because of undue expense has
caused storm of indignation among the
city's port boomers and city officials who
say General Goethals has cast an unjust
reflection on commercial Philadelphia.
Charges were made today that the
Government failed to take advantage of
the ports facilities and used antiquated
methods that were expensive.
An investigation of shipping costs at
this port Is now under way.
Director Webster, of Wharves, Docks
ana Ferries, announced today he would
bring the Goethal charges before the
port development committee and action
would probably result Several mem
bers of the committee promise than an
accounting" will be asked from General
Goethals.
Lower Than New York
There is no reason for excessive cx-
porting charges here" asserted Direc-
tor Webster. There is no lighterage.
Cars can be unloaded directly into the
ships from the piers. The rentals OF
wharves here are one-thrd Of those in
New York. where General Goethals said
the bulk of the army shipments would be
made. We have every equipment for the
rapid and economical transfer of freight
to vessels"
Joseph +. Hasskarl, assistant Director
OF Wharves, Docks and Ferries, who at
tended the Washington conference with
General Goethals and Mayor Smith,
placed the blame for high handling
charges on Government ineficiency
Loss Of the army shipments would
be hard blow to the port business, Mr..
Hasskarl declared He estimated that
about ninety cents per ton of export is
left with the business interests here by
the shipping.
There Is something wrong some
where said the assistant Director. "Our
facilities are equal to any port and
that Is putting the matter modestly. The
first step to be taken against the charges
are to obtain some facts and figures
Indignation at the announcement of
General Goethals was expressed today
by James j.. Lennon, president Of Sc
lect Councils.
Government Criticized
There is an apparent determination
to discriminate against the port of Phila-
delphia,' declared Mr. Lennon There
Is no reason why the Government should
not use the excellent racilities here.
II the Government Is as reckless with
its expenditures in handling export bust
ness as it was in building Hog Island |
don't wonder that expenses are too great
in Philadelphia"
He explained that Mayor Smiths dec
laration that an investigation should be
started was for the purpose OF ascer-
tanning why there existed high cost Of
handling trade through this port.
