SHIP RELEASE
Admiral Benson Cites Condi-
tons That Forestall Private
! Control at This Time.

There was agreement at the Of
fices of the Shipping Board yester-
. day with Chairman Good, of the
House Appropriations Committee,
who recently attacked the board
! scathingly, in so far as Mr.. Good
would have the Government sell its
great fleet of merchantmen to pri-
vate interests, but at that point
! agreement stopped.
BENSON OPPOSES 4. =. CONTROL.
Admiral William S. Benson. chair
man of the board. repeated with en-
phasis the statement made in his
! speech about a week ago in New
York. when he said:
Here and now 1 desire TO go on
I record as unalterably opposed to Gov
! eminent operation of this fleet. 1t
was, therefore. most encouraging to
me that Congress laid down the law
OF the land that the fleet should be
privately owned and controlled. Gov
erpment ownership and operation at
best Is under great handicap when
commercially opposed by private COM
petition"
NO SALE FOR SHIPS NOW.
However. the turning over of the
fleet to private interests instanter, as
Chairman Good seemed to desire. is
another thing. Mr.. Good said the
ships should be sold for as low az
, 500 per gross ton to American in
terests. Admiral Benson points out
that they cannot be sold for that
figure at this time. and possibly could
not be sold for $50 ton. There is,
ne said, no market for ships now, due
TO the unsettled conditions OF bust
ness. A considerable number of ships
that have been bought by private in
terests in recent months have been
, thorwn back on the hands of the

! ships.
: Likewise. officials at the Shipping
: Board deny with great vigor the
: charge that the construction and
operation OF the fleet has been

sumed the chairmanship of the board
less than a year ago, said again that
he has no intention of trying to con-
lceal any mistakes that have been
made during or prior to his admins
tration and that he wants Congress
and the people to have all the bald
facts, good and bad: in forming judg-
,ment as to the work that has been
done.
HAS EARNED $1,000. 100000.
At the same time, attention is call
ed at the offices of the board to the
statement recently made by the ad
miral that the Shipping Boards fleet
has earned gross. since operations
began, 100000, and that on June
80 last the net return to the board
had amounted to $500 100000.

Mrs. Jane Il. Coates, one OF the

catastrophies, and Worldwide demon
stration, in reading before her
class at New Year wake at her res
idence last night.
Standing before a hushed audience
of those who had come to see the old
| year out and the new year IN, Mrs
Coats predicted:
The coming year will see many
changes both in the political and
| scientific world. The unrest which
| is seething in the hearts OF the labor
| ing class the world over will burst
| into lurid flames in various parts of
the civilized world. more dangerous

is not so profitable as private owner
ship and operation, has said that he
doubts whether the profits shown by
the board from its operations are as
great as would have been earned by
private interests. Nevertheless. at
the Shipping Board a point is made OF
the fact that the 81, 900, 100000 gross
revenues represents SO l-3 per cent
upon the approximate S3,000,O00. 900
that the Shipping Board had spent at
the close of the last fiscal year, and
that the net return of 800, 900, 900 is
more than 10 per cent upon the eX-
penditures.
POINTS OUT HANDICAPS
Attention also is called to the
further fact that great part of what
the Government has spent through
the Shipping Board was unproductive
during the period when shipyards
were being constructed, and the sub
sequent period when a large part oil
the present fleet was under construc-
ton. Roughly calculated, it is stated
that about one-half Of the ships which
have been launched struck the water
during the last year and a half and
hence have been productive only Tor
a short time. Moreover Shipping
Board officials point out that during
the war period the ships then in oper-
alton were not managed with an eye
first to profit, as would be the case
with private interests, but to quick
and safe movement OF men and sup
plies.
He regards the fact that this coun-
try has great fleet of merchant
ment at this time, when the conditions
of world trade are in process of re-
adjustment, as of major importance
mad value to the country.
STRESSES ADVANTAGES GAINED
He asks what would have happened
to American exporters after trade was
resumed with foreign countries if the
shipping board had failed to build
ships and argues that the existence OF
the great American fleet stabilized
ocean freight rates wnen they were
soaring lie adds that if there had
been no nation able to take Germany
position when her maritime power
was wiped out ocean going tonnage
would have been monopoliz"d by Great
Britain, whose own crying trade needs
would have come first.
All Of that is apart. Admiral Benson
holds, from the security the fleet
gives this country in case Of another
world upheaval such as came in 1914
and found the country with little
more than a shell of a merchant ma
rine with which to care for the needs
OF it's business.
