Says America Has
No Need to Fear
Marine Problems
Stevenson Taylor Declares
the Greatest Need To Be
Support of Shipping by
People of United States

| A nation which so successfully con-
! ducts such enormous manufacturing
enterprises as the United States does
need not fear facing the problems of
the merchant marine, says Stevenson
Taylor, president Of the American
Bureau of Shipping, in statement just
issued.
THE people of the United States
must learn to think ships, talk ships,
patronize ships and own ships-Amer-
lean ships, built, owned, manned and
operated by carrying the
American flag on every sea" Mr.. Tay-
lor states. 1--WE now have vessels in
quality and quantity far exceeding any
thing we have ever had before. We
were forced to build these at tre-
mendous cost in our dark hour of need
during the war
The merchant marine act Of 1920,
commonly known as the Jones law, is
a great piece of legislation seeking to
give permanency to our fleet. But we
must have an awakening of the public
mind to the necessity for supporting
that measure and the taking of othe r
steps needful to assure an adequate
American merchant marine for all
time.
IF every man and woman in the
United States had as full a knowledge
Of marine shipping affairs as have
the Senate Committee on Commerce,
and Representative William S. Greene,
chairman Of the House Committee on
Merchant Marine, the success of our
mercantile marine would be assured
beyond question. Their fearless and
patriotic stand for American ideals and
institutions is one which all Americans
might we'll take.
Il noticed that in a recent cablegram m
from London prominent British ship
owner is quoted as saying: The Amer
lean export trade was built up in Brit
lsh shipping and American exporters
can't do without it. The general pub
lie on your side of the water may not
recognize that yet, but they will sooner
or later
That we have depended on British
shipping in the past is unfortunately
too true but we paid for it and paid
well. Hundreds OF millions of dollars
have gone into the Golfers of foreign
shlpowners for carrying our exports,
but that 10 no longer necessary, as We
nave Ii!c S!i lpS OA OuT Owl 10 carry Cne
greater part of American exports and
imports. Thanks to the patriotic policy
Of such constructive leaders as Senator
Jones and Congressman Greene, we
now have legislation on the statute
books in the merchant marine act of
1920 which will enable US to operate
these ships, if we but use good ;udg-
ment and economical methods. The
frenzied and wasteful methods adopted
during the war whereby to meet the
demands on shipping during that dis
tresslng period are no longer necessary
and we should settle down to a grim
deterrnlnation Of competing success
fully with our foreign rivals.
Our rivals have served and are
serving notice on US in every conceiv-
able way, that they will do their best
to crush our opposition in the sea-
carrying trade. That is but natural on
their parts, but it Is up to US, both by
patriotic devotion and the underlying
human attribute of self protection, to
exert every effort to secure and main
tam our legitimate share Of the ocean
commerce of the world"

Erlanger Sues Klaw for
Accounting of Assets
Dispute Between Theatrical
Managers, Former Partners,
To Be Aired i'm Court

Abraham L. Erlangcr. theatrical
manager, filed a suit in the Supreme
Court yesterday against his former
partner Marc klaw. asking an account
ing of certain copartnership assets.
Mr.. Erlanger said that. when the
partnership with Mr.. Klaw was term-
mated in a919 after the two men had
heen associated for thirty-one years,
there remained undistributed Of the
assets $2S7.700 in Liberty bonds. The
controversy how to be decided made
1t impossible that this part of the as
sets be distributed al the time.
1t was explained by Mr.. Erlanger
that he and Mr Klaw entered into an
agreement under which Mr.. Erlauger
allowed his excess capital in the Arm
above that of MIR. Klaw to remain
il the firm and on which he was to re-
ceive 8 per cent interest. This interest
was credited to Mr.. Erlanager until
1917 without dispute. but since that
year he has not received this interest,
which is the cause of the litigation.
The plaintiff demands an accounting
Of the moneys due him in 1917. 1918
1919 and 1920. which he said amounted
to s42,s73, s48,799, $1,000 and $ls,s5s
respectively.
Mr.. Erlanger said that the amount
of the excess of his capital in the
Klaw & Erlanager copartnership, over
that of Mr. Klaw, from 1904 when the
agreement was made, ranged from
$145,793 to $9T2,S11.
