SIDES WITH
CONGRESS
VIEWS
Presidents Message Also
Likely to Bring Changes
Sought by Members
By GEORGE E. BURNO

The ship-reform proposals made
Co, President Coolidge by II. q
Dalton, the Cleveland transports
ton expert, called in to determine
what is wrong with the American
merchant marine, are OF such 9
nature as to virtually preclude any
serious shipping fight, such as has
been threatened, In the coming SEES
sion of Congress.
This was the opinion of Admin
istration leaders today following
a careful study Of the report upon
which the President will base the
recommendation in his annual
measure. They hold to this view
because:
Congress Complaints Met
First. the proposal that the Ship
ping Board and the Emergency
Fleet Corporation be absolutely
divorced, with complete operating
control of the merchant marine IN
the hands OF the latter. conforms
70 the personal views of President
Coolidge. who is most irritated by
+ the recent controversy In wnlcn the
/ Shipping Board openly defied his
wishes:
second. because the further pro-
nosaIs that the Shipping Board,
With its regional representation, be
retained as a Quasi-judicial body,
and that the Fleet Corporation have
= board of directors composed or
four Cabinet members and repro.
sentative each Of the Atlantic, Pa
cific, and Gulf coasts. win satisfy
those members OF Congress who
have announced their intention 10
combat any effort to repeal a SET
ton voice in shipping matters.
Third, because the recommends
ton that as soon as possible the
entire fleet be turned over to pri-
vate ownership should mollify Com
gressional opponents .of Govern
ment ownership Of public utilities.
Demands By Cool .ge
President Coolidge consistently
has demanded .'one-man control" OF
the American shipping fleet.
The Dalton recommendation
would take care Of thaks. The Presi-
dent of the Fleet Corporation would
be the operating director. directly
accountable to the White House.
On the score OF regional repre-.
sentation, it is pointed out that not
only would the shipping Board, as
now constituted.j continue. to func-
tIon in an advisory and rate-making
capacity, but that the PROPOSED
board of directors Of the Fleet Cor
poration actually would increase the
number of sectional experts to have
a say on matters Of shipping policy.
The Shipping Board includes men
from the Atlantic. the Pacific. the
Gulf. the Great Lakes. and the in

The tentative board OF directors
for the Fleet Corporation would be
