COMYN SEES PROFIT
WITH PANAMA FLAG
Expects Other Ship Owners to
Follow Example Set by
California Line.

W. L. Comyn. head of the California
Steamship Company, who has transferred
ITO the Panamanian flag six ex-German
1reighters recently bought from the
Shipping Board. predicted yesterday
that many other shipowners would do
likewise. He Is in New York super
Nlsing the reconditioning OF the vessels.
three OF which are to go into service
between the Pacific coast and Australia
and three probably in a European run
from the Pacific
Although Mr.. Conyn is the largest
FACTOR In the Panamanian merchant ma
rlne, he disclains credit for the dis
ccvcry that there are many attractive
features in the navigation laws of the
Central American Republic. The Grace
Line. he said, made the first change OF
registry with 10000 ton freighter. The
idea is spreading rapidly, he said. and
one OF the biggest operators OF American
shipping is giving serious consideration
IN it,
The chief advantage OF Panama MAN
registry is that the owner is relieved OF
the continual but irregular boiler and
hull INSPECTIONS and the regulations az
TO crews quarters and subsistence" said
Mr. Comyn. I'VE are under absolutely
no restrictions. so long as we pay the
~ a net ton registry fee and 10 cents
yearly net ton tax"
The ships are to have German officers
and Japanese and Chinese crews. 4
tull complement of officers for three
OF them arrived last Thursday from
Germany aboard the North German
Lloyd liner Sierra Nevada. Most Of
the officers served on one or the other
Of the ships before the war. The yes-
seis, from 5000 to 1000 deadweight tons,
sre the Arcadia, Casco. Ida, Isonomia.
Pawnee and Pequot
I'VE are paying Officers and crew ac-
cordinG TO the japanese scale" Mr..
Conyn said. This is our main COM
retition on the Pacific and we cannot
meet It under the American flag. The
difference in operating costs a year for
an $500 ton ship under the japanese
scale and under the Shipping Board
scale is $4,000. The subsidy, ii passed,
viii amount to only $1,000 a year
Mr.. Comyn said he can see no seri-
Gus objection to Paaamanian registry.
There is no navy TO protect the ner-
chant fleet Of the country. but this he
considers unimportant. He said he is
obtaining as favorable marine insur-
ance classificatiors as any OF his COM
petitors. Mr.. Comyn declared he has
nothing TO fear but war between the
United States and Panama.

HAITI IS EXPECTING
BUMPER COFFEE CROP

ST. MARC. HAITI. Nov. There
are indications in plenty here that the
soffee crop which is now being pick
I'd and shipped will be the largest
exported from Haiti in all her his
Eory. st. Marc is the center OF the
,offee growing country. and already
he roads and trails are pouring in a
food of the aromatic berries that find
such high favor in Western Europe
Since the export tax on coffee pro-
luces a little more than one-third OF
he government entire revenue, and
he coffee exports average two-thirds
If all Haiti's export trade, the i'm
portance Of this record breaking crop
IAN be appreciated.
AT the peak OF the French regime
Haiti a crop of 100000 pounds
vas exported to Europe in 1871.
Thirty years later il had dwindled
$4,000. 900 pounds as a result OF
neglect and the incessant civil wars
following Haiti's independence in 1898.
'nder Haitian rule il finally climbed
1880 to 100000 pounds. but the
reduction was again at low ebb when
he United States interviewed in 1915.
Three years later, when American
troops had restored order in the is
land, ii reached a total OF S0,0OO,OOO
pounds. OF $16.500.00 declared value.
md that year the crop paid 40 per
ent. of Haitis entire revenue.
The present crop. however, is de-
;tined TO exceed all previous French.
Haitian and American occupation
igurcs. and the average price to the
peasant will be nine cents a pound.
Practically all OF the coffee goes to
Iavre for distribution through
France. Belgium. Holland, Germany
md Austria. where ii is used in small
OTIS as a grading coffee.
