BEN son CONsULTs CAUCHoIs.

Entrance of French maritime in
terests into the transatlantic rate con-
ference for the stabilization of over
seas shipping charges was discussed
yesterday afternoon by Oscar Cau-
chois, general manager of the freight
department of the Compagnie Generate
Transatlantidue, and Chairman Ben
son, of the Shipping Board.
No conclusion was reached. but Ad-
miral Benson said he believed French
shipping interests would enter into
the proposed agreement designed to
prevent rate war. The chairman
added, however, that proposals for a
division of tonnage would not be con
sdcred by the board because it's
policy called for absolute freedom OF
the seas.
The bunker coal supply Is a problem
facing the French limo in American
ports the chairman said. adding that
NJ. Cauchois had reported that the
stcamshipIaFrance required 5000 tons
to make each return trip and that tho
coal cost SIS ton. High coal prices
were attributed by the chairman to
spectators taking advantage of the
recent drop in ocean freight rates TO
