Representative Davis. Calls Sailing

REFERS TO LAWYERS TRIP
Senators and Shipping Board Mem
bers Accused Of Inconsistency.

American diplomats who travel on
foreign vessels were criticised yester-
day by Representative Davis of Ten
nessee, democratic member of the
House merchant marine committee
who declared that such patronage was
'un American and indefensible In
every case where United States ships
are reasonably available"
Referring in a letter to Frederick
E. Wadhams. treasurer Of the Amer
lean Bar Association. to the scontem-
group of association members for a
trip to England next summer, Mr..
Davis declared:
while certain members of the
Shipping Board and certain United
States senators have been very free
In their criticism of your association
for chartering a foreign vessel, yet
they said not a word for publication
when the United States Chamber of
Commerce likewise chartered for
efgn vessel to transport several hun
dred of its members to Italy to attend
the international meeting of the
Chamber OF Commerce OF the World
and which publicly criticised at the
time.
II wonder if this discrimination
shown by the members of the Ship
ping Board and certain other officials
was due to the fact that the United
States Chamber of Commerce warmly
espoused the Lasker ship subsidy bill.
whereas the American Bar Associa-
tion very properly did not do SO.
Your association is certainly no
more censurab1e than was the United
States Chamber OF Commerce and per-
haps~both the members Of your asso-
ciatfon and OF the United States
Chamber of5vCommerce are less CEN
surable than those United States Dip
lomats and other officials who persist
in travelling on foreign flag ships fire.
