tu4e was I'VE have twice as many
SHIPS as We need--we must disman-
lie or destroy 100000 tons so it
won't come in competition with the
shipping trust we are about to give

anything be more improvident2 Can
i be clearer that this proposition Is
solely in the interest of some special
interest? l think not What could

der their loads OF taxation-to this
proposal OF the chairman OF the
shipping board that we are to dis
mantle 5000 900 tons of the ship
ping we have and tax the people

shipping trust, to whom we are to
give a part OF our fleet, for the pur-
pose Of building other ships ?"
