CONTINENTAL SHIP
RATE WAR AVERTED
American Lines Agree to Re-
turn to Conference; italian
Parley Is Off.

Harmony was restored yesterday
among the steamship lines operating to
Hamburg and other Continental ports
when the United American Lines agreed
to return to the rate confere nee, thus
ending the threat of cutthroat competi-
tion for cargoes. After a five hour ses-
sion in the conference rooms at 10
Bridge street, this announcement was
made, and the old rate schedule was inn
mediately declared again in effect. Some
adjustments may be made In the sched-
ule, however, at a meeting to-day. when
the details of the settlement will be
agreed upon.
Peace was effected through an agree
ment to form a separate conference OF
tho lines running to Belgium. German
and Dutch ports. These will henceforth
meet apart from the lines operating to
United Kingdom and French ports. The
principal point of difference originally.
it was learned, was opposition to the
all-inclusive conference OF North At
lantic lines.
The French Line had no representative
at yesterdays meeting. but William ].
Love, vice-president OF the Emergency
Fleet Corporation. who intervened in the
dispute in the interests of harmony, de-
MED that this signified the unwillingness
of the French organization to cooperate
with the other lines. He said he believed
that the French Line would hold to the
conference rates as before.
Coincidentally with the meeting of the
Hamburg lines the West Coast of Italy
Conference met and agreed to disband.
which action. following that of the other
conferences, extended the area of open
competition to all points in the Mediter-
| rap a ha
of commodities important in the Med
iterranean trades. To ports in the
Marseilles group sugar has fallen from
| 81 to Sc a ton, oil from So a barrel to
| s175 and general cargo from $50 a ton
to SIS. In the Genoa group sugar is
down from sS to 81 and oil from 40
| cents hundredweight to 80 cents.
