Carried From Southern Ports
in American Bottoms.
(sy The Associated Press,

WASHINGTON, March 2S--Ships fly
ing the American flag operating from
Gulf ports are carrying so percent Of the
cotton exported, compared with Is per-
cent year ago, Vice President Smull
Of the Shipping Board announced today.
Shipping Board operators in the Gulf
ports. he said. are making requests for
more ships, and the Shipping Board has
adopted policy of granting their re-
quests provided they increase their
freight rates so that they will not lose
money which would occur, in the view
OF Shipping Board officials. under the
present rates.
In connection with the coal strike,
which IS imminent for April l, Mr. Smul
said that, although no consideration had
been given to transporting coal from
Engla4o, nor had any requests been
made, the Shipping Board could prob
ably take on cargoes of coal from Eng
land at a freight rate Of approximately
$500 a ton. 1t would be only a minor
charge and could be done because coal
would make a better ballast than any
other for those ships which would have
10 return in ballast.
