BY JOHN BARTON PAYNE.
Chairman Of United States Shipping
Board.

Chairman Of United States shipping
Board.
The few American shipping COM
panies now In the market cannot, and
will not buy all our ships. To illu-
strate: We had q conference recently
with one of our largest shipowners
He had urged congress to require US
to reduce our price Of 5000 to 1925 per
ton. to $125 to $40 per ton. We asked
him how many ships his companies
would buy at his prices. He replied,
about 100" We then asked how
many the entire shipping interests Of
the country would purchase. He re-
piled. about 200 more" We then
asked, How does that leave the gov
eminent? We sell you 800 Of our best
hand picked ships at 40 per cent less
than cost. We are left with more than
1900 ships Of all sorts on our hands.
which the government must operate in
competition with the better ships Of
the private owners. That will not
les with 400 or 500 ships do not make
q merchant marine adequate to the
needs Of the country. Must the gov
eminent, after selling you its best
ships at much less than cost, less than
you can possibly build them for, keep
tho poorer ships and operate them at
this great disadvantage? He admitted
that his plan would not solve the
problem, and that he was probably
looking at it from his own rather than
the governments point of view.
What, then, is the solution?
Congress should let 1t be understood
that 1t will not compel the board to
sell ships. Agitation to this end keeps
conditions unsettled and prevents
sales. The hope that congress viii
compel us to sell the ships in a short
time heads buyers of, hoping for low
prices.
The shipping board must be left to
deal with the problem. We are max
ing a number of sales, and the demand
at present prices is increasing, but
much time must pass before the ships
can be sold. No new enterprise, in
volving billions of capital was ever es-
tablished in a day.
My conclusion is, it is not possible
to have a successful American mer-
chant marine until the country grows
into the ship habit.
(a) The American newspapers and
magazines must arouse the thinking
men among manufacturers, invest
ment bankers, farmers and labor to
the necessity for merchant marine;
teach the people to think and act in
the language Of shipping. They must
first understand, then they will act.
Already great strides are being made.
Even now, we have 800 firms or COM
panies operating shipping board ships.
They employ on land and sea nearly
60, 900 men in this service. We main
tain a recruiting service and schools
to teach officers, engineers and sailors
how to do the work and fit them for
the sea.
(b) The congress Is giving the mat
ter close attention. and besides the
Greene bill, should pass mortgage
bill, substantially like the one now be-

fore the merchant marine and fisher

q lien for the purchase price Of the
ships which will, In financial circles,
have much value as q railroad mort

(c) American insurance is essential
Companies must be encouraged and

This is OF great importance.
