Sale Of Few ships ExSecsed

Sale Of Few ships EXPECTED
be little bidding for the most de-.
sirable tonnage. shipping men do not
anticipate that any offers will be
made for the great bulk Of the gov
ernment fleet and that the board will
have hundreds of vessels remaining
on its hands.
A large percentage of the board g
steel vessels are small steamers, which
shipping men regard as uneconomical
TOT use In the transocean trade. The
cnaef cf markets forNvessels Of under g..
Vuo wv TONS deadweight are regarded as
the Baltic and Mediterranean trades
and the Continental coastinr trade.
Inc sale of these ships abroad is i'm
possible under present conditions,
however.
BY the merchant marine act the
Shipping Board is authorized to sell
to aliens vessels fer which no Ameri
can purchasers can be secured, but the
safes can be made only upon an af-
nrmative vote of at least five members
OF the board. In view of the large
amount Of ships being built abroad,
oeiay IN the Offering Of the less de-
slrapie sra. tonnage to foreign buyers is
hkeiy to lead to. the loss of foreign
markets through oversupply abroad.
according to the records of the Ship
ping Board, it had at the beginning Of
TINS year about 500 vessels of under
o,ooo tons deadweight, aggregating
over 100000 tons, and this number
has been materially increased since
then. With only two votes in the board,
as 1T is at present constituted, nothing
can be done. however, toward dispos-
Ing of tonnage abroad.
Board May Be Competitor
One point in which American ship
ping interests are particularly in
serested is as to the policy of the
ohlpping Board in regard to operating
Its unsold tonnage: Private interests
are desirous of knowing, before thew
Duy ships of the government, whether
the unsold remainder of the Shipping
board tonnage will be worked by the
government in competition with the
purchasers Of the boards vessels.
no assurance has been given that
the board will not pursue this course.
and that condition is one of the chez
1ac1ors IN disposing private interests
to withhold bids until some definite
poi'cy has been decided on. The board
IT IS argued, is not bound by economic
rules and has the purse of the Ameri
can public to draw on in case of con-
tlnued loss of operation.
Still another factor adding to the
unsettlement of the situation is the
feeling that with two-man board no
permanent policies can be expected
and that the full board, when it is
hnaily appointed, may adopt completely
reverse courses to those taken bv Ad-
mlral Benson and Commissioner Don
ara. Under these circumstances the
purchase of tonnage is regarded bv
shipping men as a highly speculativs
proposition.

NUMBERS
 J. $. MARINE CORPS
 AMONG IFS DEVOTEES

These are the days when baseball ,ans are won't to gather in clusters and discuss prospects for the season.
 Will the Reds" repeat this year2 Will Babe Ruth smash out another record breaking string of home runs? N III Ty Cobb maintain his batting lead in the American league. or will he have to give way to a younger player 9 These questions are agitating the an- nual crop Of baseball bugs" and keep ing the diamond dopesters guessing.
 Corp. John l.. Little of the marine corps recruiting station, g. East Wash ington street. admits that he is a base ball fan. and is already sizing up the teams chances for the coming season. Furthermore, he claims that every one of the more than 15,00O men of the marine corps are just as keenIy inter- ested in the progress Of the big 1eag- uers as he is
 Corporal Little can give many old timers pointers on the development Of baseball. and says that the first game IT this country, under official rules, was played by two teams of the Knick- erbocker club of New York. It was played in Hoboken. N J., on June 19. iS46, and ended in the fourth inning when one Of the teams got 2I runs and, according to the rules then in vogue. they were declared winners.
 The National Association of Base ball Players came into existence in 1858. and they framed up a set of rules in 1860, some of which stiII hold good. They adopted the nine-i inning game As today, the base runner could not run three feet out of the line Of base: he could not score from third after two men were out. if the batter had not reached first base safely. and al least five innings constituted a game. Tn case of rain- Hence was born the rain check
 The Americans put baseball on the map and wherever the flag has gone the game has followed it. The marines introduced baseball into the Philip pines, Guam, Nicaragua, Haiti and other countries and the natives took to 1t like wildfire. The Virgin Island CTS are the latest of Uncle Sam's proteges to take to the game. Not long ago when the marines won the championship of the Philippines. the natives gave them a hard run for first money.
 Funny thing about it is. the natives pick up baseball terms like. He's out got it. and they learn to roast the umpire, before they can speak a whole sentence in plain English It may not be the best way to learn the language but baseball certainly gives them a good start
