SHIPPING FIGHT
 BEGUN IN EARNEST
AMERICAN BOARD WILL PRE- SENT DEMAND TO BRITISH
 AT ONCE.

Washington. + Shipping Board rep resentatives will confer with British shipowners in London soon in an ef- fort to obtain fair treatment for American merchant vessels in trade privileges in foreign ports In mak- ing this announcement the board said Captain Ferries, the district manager at London. has been instructed to make strong representations particu- larly against discrimination in con- tracts for carrying Egyptian cotton to British and American ports.
 It is considered probable, however, that the conference will have still broader aspect, and that the board will insist that it's vessels have equal footing with British ships in the awarding of contracts for the trans port of all classes of freight.
 The board is understood to have complained to British shipping lines that American vessels have been de nied cargoes of Egyptian cotton, al though in many instances their bids were lower than those of British ships which got the contracts. Cap tain Ferries is understood to have in structions not only to protest against such discrimination, but to insist that half of both the direct and the indirect cotton shipments be carried in Ameri- can bottoms.
 In negotiating with British snip ping interests, officials here say, the board probably will take the position that if its vessels are not assured fair treatment it may be deemed advisable to invoke retaliatory measures as pro- vided for by the merchant marine act
 Chairman Lasker has discussed with Eugene Meyer, director of the War Finance Corporation, the provid- ing of additional tonnage for Ameri- can ships, MT. Lasker is said to have urged that the finance corporation in advancing funds for export of Ameri- can godos stipulate that they be shipped in American vessels.
