of the bill was disposed OF last

Steamship Co. and foreign interests TO
obtain Government vessels in the Pacific
trade
Reiterating his declaration that some
OF the ships operated by the Dollar

that Fleischacker was working with this

The Jones bill would authorize an

calls for an outlay of $3.50, 000, 900 over
a period OF Is years.
