American Maritime Policy.
Referring to the American maritime
policy. the report said:
Congress has declared In favor Of
private ownership OF our merchant ma
rine as soon as practicable. but under
present conditions it is impracticable to
dispose OF any considerable proportion
of our merchant marine 10 private
owners at fair prices
so much of our fleet as cannot be
chartered on bare boat basis or time
charter TO private operators should be
laid NO pending the revival of world
commerce. Meanwhile the fleet will
serve our national security as a naval
auxiliary in case OF necessity.
1.-THE plan should be abandoned OF
allocating ships to load at ports and
for trade routes irrespective of the ton
mage OF cargo offering or of the losses
to the government attendant on this
policy.
Present shipping laws requiring
larger crews subject American vessels
to disadvantage estimated at per cent.
on the capital investment. while the
compulsory advance OF half wages
in any foreign port of call adds a
further burden of cost by involving
excessive delays.
For the continued maintenance of
American merchant marine American
producers, exporters and importers
should require the employment OF
American vessels In the carrying of
their shipments Of exports and I'M
ports to such an extent as they are
and in any case they should prevent
discrimination against American ships
in such transportation.
Between the United States and its
possessions and foreign ports regular
combined passenger and freight service
should be maintained.
I'VE urge the enactment of the ma
rine insurance measure now pending in
Congress.
Provisions OF facilities for commerce
tinues to be oppressed by a multiplied
ton OF taxes.
THE deplorable violations of the sane
tity OF contracts should be promptly
remedied.
1--WE commend the efforts OF the Amer
lean Bankers Association and other or
ganizations to adopt uniform standards
of letters of credit.
ITO insure equality Of treatment, the
American tariff should provide for adj
ditional duties on imports from nations
discriminating, by tariffs or administra-
tive practices. against the trade of this
country"

CONVENTION URGES
CREDIT TO EUROPE
National Foreign Trade Coun-
Gil Sees Unbalanced Ex-
change as a Peril.
RECOMMENDATIONS MADE
Freer Exchange of Imports and
Exports Demanded by
Business World.

CLEVELAND, May THE eighth an
nual convention of the National For
eign Trade Council closed a four days
session here this morning with the adop-
ton OF the platform for the coming
year, as recommended by the general
convention committee, which was draft
ed after consideration OF the many adj
dresses and discussions at the general
and group sessions of the convention.
THE business world is suffering to-
day from unbalanced exchanges. Not
withstanding the position of the United
States as a creditor nation. the present
unstable financial condition OF a large
part of the world. especially of Europe,
Is the fundamental cause of our own
business depression" the committee re-
port said.
"A return to normal conditions in this
country depends in large part upon an
Improvement of our foreign trade. The
present retrogression is evidenced by
the maximum OF the country's export
trade. Of Sa9s. 200, 900 in June, 1920. de-
creaslng in October to $751;. 900 and
in March, 1921. to $3s4.000,000.
Foreign nations whose imports ex-
coed their exports nave been compelled
to curtail purchases because of inability
to pay by exports.
THE United States must continue to
merchandise not detrimental to existing
industry in order to receive pay for the
exports necessary to stable employment
by labor in agriculture and Industry,
and to permit of the liquidation of the
obligations of the debtor nations.
Long Term Credits.
1T is generally agreed that the solu-
ton depends upon our ability to create
adequate facilities for the purpose of
drawing upon the surplus American in
vestment funds in order that the long
term credits so badly needed by the
European countries may be furnished.
Most of the countries of Europe are I'M
able to pay us now and for some time to
come in gold or merchandise, and unless
purchase raw materials their business
and ours will continue to stagnate.
I'VE urge the immediate creation of
financial institutions under the Edge
law. whose machinery will facilitate ex-
tension of long term credits to promote
free exchange of exports and imports
We commend efforts to acquaint our in
vesting public with the necessity Of pur-
chasing debentures issued by such insti-
tutions against approved foreign securf-
ties for this purpose.
lation of banking reserves now permit
the extension of credits sufficient to ac-
celerate recovery in certain lines. This
should gradually thaw frozen credits
and end stagnation and provide export
and import cargoes for our now par
TALLY idle merchant marine.
THE increased confidence prevailing
in the American business world denotes
the disappearance of danger of financial
