Warrington. May ls.-The govern

man Lasker OF the shipping board de-
clared in an address today before the
annual convention here of the cham
Der of commerce Of the United States.
President Harding has placed before
congress q program Of legislation that
undertakes to overcome the Difficult
ties now facing private operation of
ships, he added, and unless that leg
islation Is enacted the art Of ship
building in America will wither and
die.
Mr.. Lasker said that the proposed
ship subsidy legislation. admittedly

the situation. but it Is only through
the temporary 8 Of artificial means
that the situati10 can be permanently
saved and this administration de-
clares its belief that the adoption OF
the program which it proposes will
save the situation" America must
have a merchant marine comparable
to that Of Great Britain, the speaker
added. ii it is to have q naval power
potentially equal to that of Great
Britain.
IF all the naval ships in the world
were scrapped," Mr.. Lasker said,
Great Britain through her prepon-
derant, merchant marine would be
more supreme on the sea than she
could ever hope to be otherwise. Ger
tain types of merchant ships are as
essential to the operation of a navy in
times of war as the capital ship of the
navy itself. In these types America
Is sadly deficient compared with
Great Britain, a. a ratio of almost S
to l in favor of the latter"
Mr.. Lasker said his experience as
chairman Of the shipping board had
convinced him that government own
