British Oppose u. S.
Ships, Says La Toilette
''insidious Propaganda to In
jure Merchant Marine Is
Charged bv Senator

WASHINGTON, July % British
shipping interests were charged in the
Senate to-day by Senator La Toilette.
republican, of Wisconsin, with "insidi-
Gus propaganda hostile to develop-
ment OF the American merchant ma
rine '''-
Detailing his charges that British
interests were at work to shape the
american merchant marine policy to
their selfish ends, Senator La Toilette
charged the International Mercantile
Marine Company, an American corpora-
ton, with being in fact British con-
sroiled. He analysed at some length
she comDany's controversy with the
former Shipping Board over the form
OF contract for operating it's vessels,
which, the Wisconsin Senator declared,
aided British rather than American In
tcrests.
The resolution of the Shipping
board" the Senator said, "does not
touch the real inicuity in the relation
ship between the International Mer-
camille Marine Company and the Brit
ish government and the British ship
ping interests. Either the Shipping
Board purposely set up man of straw
for Mr.. Franklin president of the com
panyj to demolish or it had not the
least conception of the manner in which
British influences controlled the com
pany"

Mail Steamship Co. Sued,
With Y. S.. Deer Repairs

The United States Mail Steamship
Company, nine of whose ships were
seized on behalf of the United States
Shipping Board for alleged default in
charter hire, was made a co-defendant
with the government yesterday in a
libel action brought by the New York
fialbor Dry Dock Corporation to re-
cover $184,922 said to be due for re-
pairs on the steamship Potomac
Immediately after papers in the suit
had been filed 1t was announced that
the Potomac would sail on August 10
for Bremen and Danzig, as scheduled,
IN spite of the action, as the vessel is
government property and cannot be de-
layed.
The suit was filed on behalf Of the
DECK corporation by its counsel, George
". Belts, of Hunt, Hill G. Belts. 100
broadway. The claim is for an amount
alleged to be due for ,epairs and equip
ment furnished at Roscbeak, S. l., dur
ing January, February and March.
Francis B. Mayer, president of the
shipping company, said that the claim
had been presented to Admiral Ben
sen, and that the Shipping Board had
arranged to arbitrate a dispute over
the amount. Twenty days are given
Che government and the shipping com
pany in which to file an answer.
1t became known yesterday that eff
ferts are being made in Washington
to induce the Shipping Board to make
public all the facts conce rning the
seizure OF the nine ships of the United
States Mail Steamship Company last
Friday night without warning the com
pany. 1t had been explained the seiz-
Tire had been authorized by the seven
members of the Shipping Board at a
meeting held on tho previous Thursday.
Since then a complaint has been filed
with Albert D. Lasker, chairmsn of
the board that no official vote of the
board had been taken, but that officials
Of the Emergency Fleet Corporation
had assumed responsibility for the
seizure.
Subsequently ]. Barstow Smull, one
of the vice-presidents Of the Emergency
Fleet Corporation, and Elmer Schles-
niger, general counsel for the Shipping
Board, were called to Washington for
conference and William Marshall
Built was sent here as counsel for the
board. 1t is understood that President
Harding has conferred with Mr.. Lasker
on the situation with view Of making
public the official record of the seizure.
The George Washington, one of the
ships in dispute, will sail next Wednes-
day with a passenger list composed
largely of members of the American
Legion, the company announced. Cap
tain Harold A. Cunningham was Sc
lected yesterday to command the vessel.
The sailing of the George Washington
was assured by the action of Supreme
Court Justice Burr in transferring to
the United States District Court the
argument on temporary injunction
obtained by the company last Monday
to prevent interference with their
ships. The argument will be heard
before Judge Augustus n Hand in the
Federal Court on Thursday. Meantime
the injunction enables the company to
proceed with their scheduled sailings.

Taft Delivers Address
Never before has it been so clear"
said Chief Justice Taft in opening the
institute, chat our prosperity is de-
pendent on our relations to other coun-
tfles and the maintenance of those re-
latlons in friendly state of mutual
confidence and good wishes.
The greatest obstruction to the
world $ MAINTAINING harmony among its
members is the misunderstanding be-
tween them and the lack of accurate
Information which one nation NAV
have of the exact situation of the other.
and OF the necessary effect of that situ

relations.
Progress made in any field of hui

are measured"

JAPAN TO CONSULT

TOXIC, Sept. Z4.-tBy Inc AsSoci-
ated Pressl.-Japan will consult with
other members of the league OF ma
tons relative to the desire of the
United States to receive equal treat
ment In mandate islands OF h Pa
cific as a feature OF the settlement OF
the Yap question:. It is said by news
papers here. Japan will also study
the American claim to Ian ownership
in zap. as foreigners do not have the
fight to land ownership In japanese
territory.
1t Is estimated that this country's
expenses at the Washington confer
ence on limitation OF armament and
Far Eastern questions will be about
8 1000, 900. Government leaders be-
iieve the conference will be in session
for two months.
Definite decision has been reached
that the chief members of the Japa-
nese delegation will sail for the United
States on board the steamer kashima
Maru on October Is.
Another meeting OF Japanese field
marshals and the supreme war III
cillors has been held and the Yomi-
Uri Shimbun declares their attitude on
the limitation of ornaments Is as fol-
lows:
Japan will maintain her already
settled principle of national defense
and no change or alteration will be
made until the time arrives when in
ternatiopal disputes n troubles can
be settled without relying upon. or re-
sorting to armed force. This is be-
cause Of Japan's particular national
status. and the situation which exists
in surrounding states"
This would indicate a change from
>the previously announced decision OF
Japan. which supported. in principle.
the maintenance of 81 army divisions.
It would seem she would be disposed
to follow other nations In actual re-
auctions.
