GREAT VICTORY WON BY
Mr.. HEARST, SAYS FOLK
BY JOSEPH w. FOLK.

The shipping case Is one OF the
most important cases ever before the
courts. Mr.. Hearst has won re-
marksbIe victory. and is entitled to
the greatest credit for his courage
in calling upon the courts to prevent
the sale, without the authority OF
Congress, of the enemy ships taken
during the war. which are now a
part Of the army transport reserve.
Congress. as justice Bailey has
held, has never authorized the Ship
ping Board or any one else to sell
these ships. The President has never
expressly authorized the Shipping
Board to sell the ships. The policy
with respect to the vessels is a mat
ter for Congress to determine. Con-
eress may decide to hold them as
part of the army transport reserve,
leasing them out for operation until
they may be needed for such pur-
poses.
The decis,o of Justice Bailey opens
ND an opportunity for the beginning
OF that great merchant marine which
90 many Americans have long hoped
for and which, IL IL believed, viii
bring to the United States the golden
stream Of universal. trade.

HELP TO AMERICAN
MARINE, SAYS ANSELL
ny SAMUEL t. ANsELL.

The ship case was a complete vic
tory for Mr.. Hearst all along the line.
Every point that was raised by attor-
neys appearing against counsel for
the Shipping Board has been decided
In Mr.. Hearst's favor.
There were three questions OF the
first importance raised during the
course OF the case, the hrst being
whether Mr.. Hearst, as a taxpayer.
had the right to bring suit against
the United States Shipping Board.
which 10 great Governmental
agency. The Court has held that Mr..
Hearst had this right.
The second question raised was
whether Mr.. Hearst, In suing to OBJ
tain an injunction against the Ship
ping Board preventing that board
from disposing OF the former German
fleet, was bringing a suit against the
Government OF the United States, The
Court held that this was not a suit
against the Government, but a suit to
prevent agents OF the Government
from exercising authority which they
did not have, and which counsel for
Mr.. Hearst have all along contended
they never did have. 1r
The third question raised during
the court proceedings was that the
Shipping Board had never been given
authority by Congress or by the Presi-
dent to sell these ships, which. it was
pointed out, constituted one OF the
finest units OF the American Merchant
Marine.
On all three OF these questions,
which were the vital points at issue
In the case, the District Supreme
Court has held with Mr.. Hearst, and
has firmly established all the conten-
tions we have made.
i am of.the opinion that Mr.. Hearst
is entitled to great credit in instlgat-
ing this suit in the interests of the
public, OF his owS volition and at his
own expense. The injunction pre-
venting the sale of these great pas
senger liners, the property of the
Government and the property of the
people. will be great help in the
establishment OF an American mer-
chant marine, which is large now, but
which in the future may grow to be
the greatest in the world

and reputation. The bureau In the
