Fundamental Defects.

Far-reaching changes in the Gov
ernment machinery for the admins
tration of shipping are proposed in a
report made public today by a COM
mittee Of the National Merchant Ma
rine Conference, organized by the
United States Chamber of Commerce.
The report is to be submitted to the
conference when it meets here No
vember 16 and Il.
The proposals in the main suggest
a reduction in the personnel of the
Shipping Board to three, with semi
judicial regulatory duties; the trans
fer of the operation of the Govern
ment merchant ships to the Fleet Cor
poration, with a board of directors
consisting of three members Of the
Presidents cabinet, and the centraliZa-
ton so far as practicable of all other
Government activities relating to ship
ping in the Department of Commerce.
The committee making this report
is headed by Judge Edwin 3. Parker,
umpire Of the German-American
Mixed Claims Commission, and its
membership is taken from every sec
ton of the country, including the
Pacific Coast, the Gulf Coast, the At
lantic Coast, the Great Lakes region
and the interior. Industrial, mercan-
tile, labor, agriculture and other in
terests are represented.
President Coolidge doubtless will
give this report consideration in draft
regarding the merchant marine. In
the main, they conform largely to the
plan which President Coolidge has
sought to work out himself, in the
absence Of legislation. for the i'm
provement of the merchant marine,
the plan over which the President and
the Shipping Board have clashed, and
because of which the board recently
defied the President.
The conference committee put its
finger on the weak spot in the present
arrangement for administration of the
Government merchant fleet when it
said:
THE attempt to combine in the
Shipping Board semi-judicial, regula-
tory duties, certain responsibilities for
the promotion of shipping and the
executive function Of administering g
and disposing of the Government
owned fleet and other shipping prop
erty was unsound in theory and un-
workable in practice. The unsatisfac-
tory results are mainly attributable to
fundamental defects in machinery"
