American Shipping Flag on

WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-Ways and
means for establishing a merchant marine
policy for the United States occupied
the entire attention of the Cabinet Fri
day. The Administration has decided
that the question Of placing the American
merchant flag on the seven seas under
practicable conditions is the most i'm
pOrtant constructive problem the coun-
try faces. No decisions that can be
made public have been arrived at. Vari-
Gus plans Of lesser or greater intricacy
are under consideration: 1t was an

PRAISES QUESTION OF
SHIPPING TREATIES.
One Of the phases Of the new merchant
marine policy which the Administration
soon viii have to face is the question Of
the shipping treaties the United States
has with a number Of foreign govern
ments.
President Harding was in conferences
last night with the Secretary of War,
the Secretary of Navy and the Chairman
Of the shipping Board on the question
OF transport service. Hitherto the Army
and Navy have maintained their own
transports as Independent services. The
question now under consideration is
whether transport services should not
be the proper and exclusive function Of
the shipping Board. General Dawes, Di-
rector Of the Budget, holds strong views
on that subject He found not long ago
that both the War and Navy Departments
were spending thousands of dollars on
transport services when vessels Of the
Shipping Board were available and could
have been commandered at little or no
cost TO the Treasury.

BY CONSTANCE DREXEL

WASHINGTON, Oct. s.-Petting parties
may be greatly reduced if Senate bill
number 1916 has its way. The bill is
similar to the vice repressive measure al
ready passed by thirteen States.
1t is n strong Endorsement Of the single
standard Of morals in that penalties apply
equally to both men and women instead
Of falling upon the women only.
Owners as well as occupants of vehicles
such as motor cars and boats would be
culpable. Penalties also would be meted
out to owners Of disreputable houses as
well as to their inmates.
The fact that automobiles will be one
Of the targets of the proposed measure
is hailed by Mrs. Nina Van Wrinkle, Motel
club woman, New Jersey suffrage leader
and present chief Of the national cap4-
tails force OF policewomen, as sounding
the death knell Of petting parties which
she believes too often are the open door
to breaking prohibition and moral laws.
