out In other words. Mr.. Schlesinger is
going to draf. the best legal talent IN
the country to help him clear the al

Many Of these claims. Mr.. Schlesinger
says. have been kept waiting as long as
three years-some just claims which ne
says should be reviewed and paid
promptly. others unjust claims. which
are to be fought to the last ditch.

Mr.. Schiesinger has been studying
recent survey made by the Shipping
