Shipping Board methods come In for

Christoffer Hannevig, a builder and
owner of shipping. who recently went to
England. Mr.. Hannevig. asked to COM

the United states sought and intended
to secure maritime supremacy. re-

question.
but what Of the immense shipbulld-
ing progremme being carried out on be-
half of the Government" he was asked.
This Is his reply:
1T will prove In time TO be a stu
pendous farce. 1t has become an
orgy of extravaganza and miscalcula-
ton. The cost which Is being in
Cured In building tonnage is SO high.
SO wildly beyond the mark that rates
of freight can never Justify 1t. When
the Shipping Board embarked upon
hundreds and hundreds of con-
tracts the price was estimated at
about sizes n ton. The position
quickly became exploited by labor,
with the result that the original con-
tract prices for labor were abandoned

OF ever purchasing ships at such n
price. The whole scheme was rash
and miscalculated. Moreover. much

state control must drop and United
States shipbullders and ship owners
must be released TO set about the
accomplishment OF their private en-
terprises in their own way. When
that happens unu1r the ordinary
conditions of commercial competition,
we shall be able TO commence building
up additional shipyards and fleets on
legitimate and enduring basis.
But the State ownership idea will first
have to be dropped and the abnormal
rates of pay In the shipyards will
have to be reduced. II those two
things are done quickly the sound
potentialities viii lie within the grasp
of practical shipbuilders and ship
owners.
Personally, think England, II
she abandons state control, will main

premacy. I should like to make II
clear that private shipbuilding yards

fered with by officials. have achieved

MINISTER RESIGNS
Count uon Brockdorff-Ran
zau Out, Is Report.

BAsLE, Feb. 17-Count Won Brock
dorff- Rantzau, the German Foreign Min
lister, has resigned. according to a
Welmar despatch to the Vosstsche
Zeitun0 OF Berlin. There Is no confirma-
ton from other sources.
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau was
the German Minister to Denmark before
his appointment as Foreign Minister, 10
succeed DIR. w. s. Solf. In the latter part
of December. He said at the time he
cherished no illusions as to the difficult
ties of the tasks then confronting him.
He insisted his aim would be to achieve
a peace based on President Wilson'S
fourteen points and create a League OF
Nations.
The Count later issued a statement In
which he said Germany must not yield
to every peace condition the Allies might
wish to dictate. He subsequently took
issue with Foreign Minister Pinchon OF
France, who declared that France would
not tolerate union between German
Austria and Germany. He said that II
the Entente was anxious for lasting
peace at would be unable to oppose the
fraternal union OF Germany and German
Austria"
Count Brockdorff- Rantzau was never
cons picuous In Germany before the war
After Emperor Wilhelm gave up his
throne and escaped to Holland the Count
was spoken of as n possible candidate
for Chancellor. He is related to Bis
marck's family.
