u. $. ShipbuiIding
Cost 20 Per Cent
Over Rate Abroad
Difference Is Entirely in
Wages, Says Ship Board
Report to President, Based
Upon Steamship Figures

Construction costs of vessels in
American shipyards are about 20 per
cent above those in British yards, ac-
cording to the official report made by
the Shipping Board to President Hsr-
ding. 1t is declared that the differ
encc is due entirely to the higher wages
prevailing in this country ss the
prices Of materials here are slightly
below British figures.
The Shipping Board gives a com
parison of current costs for an aver
age standardized type of cargo steam
er. The latest quotations from Lon
don and Glasgow for an $500 dead
weight ton vessel with reciprocatine
engines and Scotch boilers range from
500 to $65 a ton. Estimates from
American shipyards average about 315
a ton higher.
The board also gives statements from
several large American companies upon
the differences in cost of construction
The ratio in favor OF British yards is
placed by the United States Lines at
10 per cent for large passenger ships;
by the international Mercantile Marine
Company at 20 per cent; by the Nun
son Lines at % to 20 per cent, and by
the United American Lines at 90 Der
cent.
Commenting upon the Fact that the
difference lies in wages, the report
states that before the war British
wages were about half of those in the
United States. On January /, 1922.
the average hourly wage in British
yards, at the rate Of exchange then
prevailing, was 81 cents. The CORE
spending figure in American yards was
81 cents. The relative efficiency Of
labor is considered higher in this
country, but it is said that this factor
tends to disappear.
With the dearth Of naval construc-
ton says the report, con which
american yards have in the past large
ly depended, and with the very large
amount of excess cargo tonnage already
IN existence under the American flag.
American yards look forward TO q
period of acute depression, relieved
only by the construction of the higher
type passenger or passenger-cargo yes
sells, If such is made possible By GOV
ernment aid
ITO limited degree such a period
of depression will tend to bring about
low prices in American yards, due to
their efforts to keep their organization
employed and to carry their overhead.
This cannot last Indefinitely, however.
and yard which cannot derive q res-
sonable profit from its work will have
no alternative but to close its gates.
In the long run infrequency of con-
struction will tend to increase costs
here, owing to the smaller number of
ships among which the overhead can
be divided"

: Officers Back
Shipping Bill
indorse the Administration
Measure as Means of Re-
storing Merchant Fleet
to Commanding Position
Will Ask Some Changes
Representatives Will Tes-
tify Before Congress ON
Proposed Subsidy Plans

The Ocean Officers Conference.
representing about $4,000 members of
marine organizations, announced yes
terday It's support OF the Administra-
tIon shipping bill, which is now pend
ing in Congress. Captain j. f. Mili-
Ken. secretary OF the conference, said
that the licensed officers would give
their entire assistance to the measure
as one designed 70 establish the Aineri-
can merchant marine. hut that some
changes would be suggested in hearings
before the committe
The outspoken declaration Of Ameri-
can sea officers for the subsidy bill is
significant, following upon the heels
of the opposition of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor and of the Inter
national Seamen's Union to the naval
reserve and immigration features.
Samuel Gompers, president Of The
American Federation, and Andrew Fu-
-useth, president sf the Seamen's s
Union, said that these sections were
80 bad that no satisfactory amendment
was possible.
Back Measure as Whole
II is understood that the licensed
officers will recommend certain changes
n these and other provisions, but that
they will urge enactment of the meas
ure as whole.
Captain Milliken said yesterday that
the bill was great advance in the
right direction and the most i'm
portant marine measure introduced in
years. Its passage, ke said, would puc
American ships back on the ocean and
would provide employment for officers
and crews.
The Ocean Officers Conference in
cludes the United Radio Telegraphe RS
with $500 mem bers; the Neptune AS
sociation OF Licensed Masters and
Mates, 5000; the United Association of
Masters, Mates and Pilots, 5000, and
the Ocean Marine Engineers Beneficial
Association No. go with $500
May Take Three Weeks
Shipping men here who are in close
touch with Washington said yesterday
that the hearings on the subsidy bill
probably would last about three weeks.
Chairman A. D. Lasker, Of the Shipping
Board, will make the opening state
ment. and about three days will be al
lowed for testimony from officials of
che board. Representatives. OF the
American Steamship Owners Associa-
cion and OF licensed officers also will
appear
Most OF the hearing, it is said, will
be occupied with witnesses represent
ing exporters, manufacturers and farm
ers, who will be asked to state how an
American merchant marine would bene-
fit their interests, and if they indorse
a policy Of government aid. The atti-
tude Of the steamship interests and the
Shipping Board already has been made
known to Congress to a large extent.
and it is the purpose of the leaders TO
develop opinions from the interior Of
the country.
