Ship Prices Up
On Prospect of
Subsidy by u. S.
Owners Now Avoid Sacrifice
Sales in Hope That Help
VIII BE Given by Govern
neni: Await Congress Vote
Freight Movement Slow
Railroad Congesiion Stops
Revival in Grain Traffic;
Coai Trade Still Falling

Prices which ship owners ara willing
10 sreeat for their tonnage have stiff
fened Substantially within the last
month This change In sentiment la
due 10 the belief that Congress ia Mo-
vepber will pass tho subsidy bill. With
government aid TO Offset operating
handleaps American ships will be In
greater demand. and as result there
Ss refuctaaes on the part og owners t.
make sacrifTee sales.
One steamship ofacia! Who cast
around last week for suitable tonnage
discovered that he would have to oTfer
sl0 to SIS q ton above the hgurea OF
last August 10 get e good vessel,
This etrengt aening Of prices has not
get reached 3 point where it will BEN
eft chs shipyards. For a number OF
months new deep-sea vesseIs were sell-
ing from $40 to $50 o ton, or less than
one half the cost of construction at
present. The recent advance is only
fraction OF the revival that is neces-
sary before steamship lines will be
willing to order ships such as those
now offered for sale In large quanti-
fies. The prices asked by the Shipping
Board, ranging around $50 ton for its
best vessels, have not been increased
Another reason for the stiffening In
Prices, 1t is said, IL that many of tha
chips which were Immediately available
have been absorbed In the coal trade
Erom Britain and the American inter
coastal service. This has relieved the
pressure on the market to SONS ex-
tent.
I he ocean freight sIsuation last week
allowed little recovery from the depres-
sion. Continued coageehon on the rail
roads running into New YORK held back
gn increase In the grain trade. The
neck OF the bottle has become jsmmed
at Buffalo, with the result that ship
pers hesitate TO make commitments
until they are assured Of delivery.
Steamship rates for prompt loading are
lew, but there has been an increase for
November and December.
The coal traffic from the United
GingdoEi. which has employed more
ehan two hundred vessela, has dwindled
70 small proportions, and tho export
coal trade Ia at a standstill. The only
active charter market is In the West
Indies trade, where there is demand
Cor small ships up to 5000 tons for
periods up 70 six nohths.

Norway Decreases
Marine Subsidy TO
M,OOO,OOO i'm 1923
Local Ser yiccs Get Chief Ad-
vanfages From T. by the
Government; Budget Re-
tains Previous Features

The Norwegian budget for the year
ending Iune, 1923, appropriatea ts,ooo,-
600 crowns for government assistance
to Norwegian shipping. equal at normal
exchange to $4,00o,000 and at current
exchsnge (crown, is cents). to $2,7oo,-
600. The budget for the year ended
June 80. 1922, appropriated 25s000,00
crowns, equivalent at normal exchange
to S6,50G,000.
The new budget makes no changes
In the system or purposes OF che ap-
preparations for shipping, and indeed,
says Eugene T. Chamberlain OF the
transportation division of the Depurt-
ment of Commerce, In these respects
Norwegian policy has remained as 1t
was before the war, except that the
contract for the line between Cuba,
Mexico, and ports of the United States
on the Gulf of Mexico in return for
a yearly subsidy OF 100000 crowns
terminated some years ago and was not
renewed.
The governments general statement
in support OF these budget reductions
recites:
'For the coming fiscal year the De-
partment of Commerce, following n
recommendation Of its nautical ad-
ordinary subsidy in the case Of most
Of the companies. As in the current
year, . nding June 30, 1922, this sub
sidy is 90 be considered as the maxi
mum amount which the companies may
receive as subsidy from Gha state.
'In accord Herewith the department
does not, this time, propose any ex-
traordinery appropriation for the sup
port of voyages ordinarily subsidized
by the state, On the other hand, a
tentative proposal is made Jointly with
the adviser to place l,157,000 crowns
at the disposal Of the department for
the support of voyages which have not
been subsidized by the state under
normal conditions.
"Compelled by budgetary considera.
tions the department has been obliged
to make these notable reductions in
the budget here considered, by which

Living Cost in Austria
Gains 10000 Per Cent

VIENNA, Oct. 2 by Maill<~~Is 10 es-
timated that tho cost of living in
Austria has Increased over 10000 per
cent since January OF this year.
Each monthly index number, on
which all government shlar es as we'll
ss agreements between emp ioyers and
employees are bascds has mounted
s&ehdily, until thls ,nonth government
employees receive salaries equal 20 l56
tiines the amount paid In March of
1921. This and other government out
lag has been met largely by the print
Ing press until the current statement
Of the Aostro- Hungarian Bank shows
Il total note circulation Of nearly two
thousand biliions Of kronen. One
weeks increase alone was 10000 ,00o.
900.
Within the k,st mouth strict govern.
ment control over all dealings In for
eign exchange bas raised the krone
COLLAR. But despite this there has
been no appreciahle check In rising
prices. IL is claimed, for example, that
hoar, margarine, beef. fats, coffse,
clothing, shoes and fuel are above
world par ty
The government and private inter
eats recSi'tly initiated n fight against
t'ie index number system. An amend
ment to the statute was brought In by
which the government will pay only
ont half OF any future increase, while
private employers served notice they
gould not meet II. but would nego-
tate the basis Of increase with the
unions. Organized labor OF everv kind
rose IS q man, and more than half a
1ezen oh5eaa nre still on strike.

Eystem is not q cnuse Of ,ncrsa..S

sae basic fault is lack of control ove,
