URGESGREATER'
MARINE FLEET.
Admiral Benson Emphasizes
Need of Developing Mer-
chant Marine.

In view Of grave international
complications, officials of the Ship
ping Board yesterday emphasized
the need Of completing and keeping
in operation the merchant marine
OF the United States.
European nations are joining
their efforts to retaliate upon Amer
lea in trade relations, 1t was de-
clared. The probability of the
United States having to enforce its
rights regarding loans to other ma
tions, and the certainty of growing
complications between the United
States and Asiatic nations over the
immigration question, makes it
prepared to meet any or all an
tsgonists either on sea or land.
AS constituted today. the United
States navy looms as a formid-
able rival to the greatest navy
on earth. 1t is far stronger
than that of Japan, but should a
war occur in the Pacific, Shipping
Board authorities say it is admitted
by naval experts that this govern
ment must depend almost entirely
upon its merchant marine.
Feeling that the creation OF 4
great merchant marine is in the
best interests of the nation. Admiral
Benson and Secretary of the Navy
Daniels are lending every effort to
stimulate wide interest among the
people in the venture. Congressional
support, il is said, is assured. The
Jones act. If carried out literally,
Admiral Benson declared, will serve
to make the United States inde-
pendent of other nations so far as
shipping is concerned, and will also
tend to promote the establishment
Of merchant marine superior to
that OF any country on the face Of
the earth.

other step that might be necessary
to obtain sufficient revenue to meet

Tho commission emphasized that
the law requires that rates shall be
so adjusted" as to produce the
guaranteed revenue.
Reports received since the new
rates have gone into effect indicate
passenger traffic has fallen off
somewhat but that freight traffic
has not decreased appreciably. An
estimate was made that the in
creased gross revenue will amount
to at least s1,546,950,000.
