For War Against Big Ship

war upon the Hamburg American

SHINES Is now trying 10 secure the
gigantic imperial wharf at DanziG
on a basis Of ownership in which
the city of DanziE itself would be
interested.
The entente commission which
distributed the assets" Of DanZig
awarded the imperial rife factory
to Poland. but gave the wharf to
the city of Danzig on the under
standing that 100000 gold marks
would be paid for il.
Seeing the opportunity to increase
his already vast holdings. SHINES
has proposed that company. con-
sisting of himself. the city and some
British capltalists--the latter a con-
cession to entente feelings-take
over the wharf by paying the g.
900 900 marks. He is willing Ia
permit DanziC to retain a majority
interest in the company. No an
swer has yet been given the Ger
man financier. but acquisition of this
property means much to SHINES
since he already runs his South
American Line from DanZig. II
likewise would give him a weapon
to use against the Hamburg Amer
lean and North German Lloyd con-
Germs which recently rejected his
overtures for peace or amalgama-
tion with their interests.
1t is reliably reported IN business
circles that England Is negotiating
with the great Siemens- -Schuckert
