SIMMONS DEMANDS
RECOGNITION
For Southern Ports. Says they
Are Being Disseminated
Against in the
ALLOTMENT OF SHIPS

Washin yton, April 24.-e are
a part of this great country. We
are going to demand our just rights
declared Senator Furnifold M. Sim
mons in a speech today in which he
charged both by direct testimony and
implication that the United States
Shipping Board had Disseminated
North Atlantic commerce centers in
the ALLEGATION of ships for trading
between the U. S. and West Indies
South and Central America. He
was addressing a conference of rep
resentatives of the shipping board
and shipping and commercial inter-
ests of the South, the latter cham
pioning the cause of the South At
lantic Maritime Con poration for the
assignment of IA freight steamers
for plying commerce beaween
southern ports and the West Indies,
South and Central American.
The Senator came from his home
in New Bern, where he was resting,
| to throw ndown gauntlet for Will
mington and the four other allied
/ South Atlantic ports. He prefaced
his remarks with the statement that
| for 18 years the period of his sena-
torial career, he had been pledged to
program favoring the development
of the merchant marine He arous-
ed opposition in North Carolina by
his early advocacy of the restoration
of the American flag on the seven
seas. He was charged with favoring
ship subsidy. He has clung to his
early faith in the measure, and his
speech today disposed Of any dou
as to his attitude on the subject.
t'The whole thing is unjust; you
can seew by people who live so near
to these Southern ports are so arous-
ed" Senator Simmons pounded hard
on the speakers table, and reiterated
again and again the story of how
lSouthern commerce in it's routing
zigzagged across the country for $500
miles only to retrace the distance
because of a failure to recognize the
Southern ports. ST am not going to
impugn the motives of the Shipping
Board or any member of tho '>nnrd
in the ALLEGATION of these numerous
ships in South America and West In
dies trade, but my information is
that large number are assigned tC
private corporations.
eve are told that If the South
wants to ship its goods to South
America or the West Indies-its cot
ton, rosin, cement and other product.
we must route them 500 or SOC
miles by the Atlantic seaboard and
then haul them 500 miles back by
boats.''
Three United States Senator'S
Simmons of North Carolina and Parl
Trammel of Florida and E. D. Smith
of South Carolina-suppcrted the
interests of the South Atlantic Mari
thine Corporation, of which Matthew
Hale of Wilmington is president
and each voiced the plea for a more
equitable distribution whereby no
only an overtaxed railway system
might be relieved but that the lont
neglected Southern ports might b.
developed. Judge Harry j. Covingtol
special counsel for the South Atlanti
Maritime Corporation, in an addres
indicated that more than 500 ship
were engaged as commerce-gcin
vessels in the South American an
, West Indies trade.
