SHIPPING BOARD REGULATIONS
BY FAR THE MOST DIFFICULT
OF ALL AF1ER-WAR PROBLEMS
Recognized That Prosperity Of Smaller Ports Of Coun-
try Should Be Nourished and
Stimulated

This suggestion is that II local ports
want to build their own shipping and
want to establish ocean routes they
should be encouraged to- do SO. of their
own initiative and under their own
direction. Concretely, the suggestion
is this: Shipping board owns a great
many more ships than it can use. 1t
owns more ships than it can, under
present conditions. sell at almost any
price. In fact. many ships which were
sold year or-two ago on the INSTALL
ment plan are now falling back on the
Shipping boards hands. 1t is pro-
posed that this surplus of ships shall
be put at the disposal of seacoast cit
les, as matter of local pride and self
interest, want to develop the impor
tance of their ports.
In working the plan out the Cham
bcr of Commerce and similar organ
izations of a city would he told that
the government is willing to donate
ships outright II the Chamber of Com
rDerce viii organize an operating COM
pany with local capital. BY this plan
the government would provide the
ships and the local communities. would
take all the responsibility of operation
II would be hard to imagine fairer
proposal to any city which is ambitious
to build up Sts shipping and to sell
its local products in foreign markets.
" is surely netter pan IMAM LOT the
federal government to assume all tho
owkwardness and the inherent waste
involved In the present point of view.
II can be taken for granted that so
far as Is possible under the control of
law and a Congress which is sec
tional in it's point of view, the policy
OF tho new Shipping board. will he
national. The conception which has
influenced President Harding has not
hesn a shipping board which shall
merely manage ships. His conception
has been board which shall have as
its iurasmertai duty the marketing
OF Ar,erica's surplus Abroad In the
most effective and economic way. II
is a merchandising orsa n'zstion on a
national scale rather than merely
transportation organiztion.

cBY MARX SULLIVAN

Washington. n. c.. June The job
that the new Shipping board has is by
far the most difficult of our after-war
problems. The first of many difficult
decisions on fundamental policy which
they must make is whether this in
stitutiou shall he conducted from ma
tional point Of view or from sectional
point OF view.
Many things done by Congress have
the tendency to express the aggregate
Of various sectional interests. They
are one variation or another of the pro-
ccss called Log rolling. The Ship
ping board. as II has been organized
by act of Congress. has this sectional
point Of view. One member must come
from the Sorth Pacific coast. one from
tho South Pacific coast. one from tho
t,ulf coast. one from the south Atan-
tic coast. one from the North Atlantic
coast, one from the Great Lahes, and
ono from the interior.
This sectional distribution OF person.
mel Is merely expressive nj something
deeper What Was wanted by the in
forests which came together in Con-
Eress to pass the act was that the
PORTS Of the various parts Of the coun-
~ should he adequately cared for.
: The point Of view was not national but
sectional II was not to achieve the
ment. but how best to build up the
ports on all the coasts of the country.
The new Shipping board must deter
mine whether they arc to fall In with
this policy or whether they are 10

national point Of view. Tho method
