MARINE INSURANCE
FORUM IS PLANNED
New Committee Being Form
ed to Deal With Problems
of Shipping Policies.
BY ROLLIN NJ. CLARK.

An era of better understanding and
teamwork between American shippers,
ship owners, underwriters and, the
Government on marine insurance mat
tiers Is foreseen as result of the activi-
ties OF a new, permanent public COM
mittee now being organized to afford q
common meeting ground for various in
terests concerned with marine insur-
ance questions.
The new committee, authorized by
the National Conference on the Mer-
chant Marine, consists Of representatives
OF the Secretary of Commerce, the
Shipping Board, the American Steam
ship Owners Association and the Asso-
citation Of Marine Underwriters.
Forum May Result.
When this group perfects its organi-
cation 1t should provide forum through
which many troublesome problems, here
tofore argued without solution at con-
greSsional hearings, may be cleared up
without the intervention of legislative
or other official action. For example,
had such q committee been in exist
ence when the existing Jones-White act
was enacted lot of conflicting and
confusing discussion on American ma
rine insurance probably would have
been avoided.
In the original bill there was q pro-
vision for the creation of reinsurance
fund by the Shipping Board for the
purpose OF reinsuring American vessels,
at the option of the private companies
writing the direct insurance. After
hearing a number of shipping spokes-
men and marine underwriters-the for
mer pleading for lower insurance rates
to assist in the development of the
American merchant marine and the
latter contending that rates of Ameri-
can insurers were as low as they could
be made without mourning def1cits-the
committee eliminated the controversial
insurance section.
In It's place was substituted a pro-
vision authorizing the Shipping Board
to insure through its own fund all of
its interest, legal and equitable, in all
American vessels constructed or under
construction on which the Shipping
Board had made loans, held mortgages
or liens, or had contracted for services
to be performed. This became law and
the Shipping Board is carrying out its
terms today.
Competition Severe.
1nasmuch as there may be a question
at times as to how much interest the
Shipping Board actually has in a par
ticular vessel or fleet, it is significant
that the board is represented on the
new committee.
The fact that marine insurance In
the United States has always been sub
Jected to severe competition from
abroad makes especially desirable some
machinery for ironing out, without pub
lie airing, the misunderstanding be-
tween American ship operators and un-
derwriters.
Both groups are striving for a great
merchant marine under the American
flag. Working together on insurance
problems, they should contribute mate
rally toward that end.

BALTIMORE GRAIN EXCHANGE
OPPOSED TO CO-OPERATIVES

Herd and T. Wilson johnson Johnston
were elected.
Exports of all grains from Baltimore
in 1880, according to the report, were
only 7.083 900 tons, the lowest since
1872, when they were SEAS 900.
THE grain export trade of this
country" the report continued, has
been considered moribund and about
to be counted out many times, but has
always arisen from its ashes and will
do so again"
According to statistics included in
the report, receipts of wheat at Balti-
more were 1881, 572 tons and the ex-
ports we're 6,952,837, including only
l .409, 689 tons of domestic origin. This
compares with receipts of l6,394,178
bushels in 1929, Of which 10,716, 036 was
exported.
Receipts Of oats here was Gas. SGT tons,
with 4,372 tons exported, against 1885,
871 in 1929, with exports of 1853, $50
bushels. Receipts of rye were 8O,377
tons, against $500 tons in 1929. Re
ceipts of barley were 45,519 tons as

Special Dispatch to The star.


BALTIMORE, January PA protest
against the expressed intention of the
Federal Farm Board to supersede the
present grain marketing machinery by
farmers cooperative associations was
voiced in the annual report Of the Bal
timore Grain Exchange.
THE consummation Of this objec-
tive" the report said, will eliminate
present grain dealers, elevator men,
millers, exporters, handlers and pro-
ceSSers of cotton, packers (meat and
vegetable), diaries and any other bust
ness so unfortunate as to have the
origin of its product on the farm.
I'VE have, therefore, the paradox of
Congress appropriating millions Of dol
lars for the relief of unemployment and
the Farm Board, the creation of Con-
gress, endeavoring to destroy industries
employing millions of men"
The report was submitted yesterday
at the annual meeting of the members
of the organization. Eugene Blackboard.
president of the group, presented the
report.
Five new directors-E. H Beer, Oscar

corporations, foreign and private banks
and individuals, from the call money
market. These loans proved unamana-
BILE to banking control in 1928 and 1929.
Mr.. Wiggin. however, told the COM
mittee that any effort to control these
loans by changes in the banking law
would merely result in diverting them
into new channels taking them again
in the loan market. He said no law
can prevent bad banking absolutely;
that is largely question of good and
bad management" He suggested, how
ever, that the reserve banks might
charge members higher rate for bor-
rowing against bond collateral, than for
borrowing against commercial credit.
Mr.. Wiggin agreed with the late Ben
jamin Strong, first governor of the New
York Reserve Bank, that you cannot
earmark credit" Governor Strong IA
vored vigorous use of the rediscount
rate to check imitation.

New York, Oct 9-(PeFurther con-
fidence was shown in the stock and
bond markets Friday but extreme ad-
vances of 2 to points in the rail
shares were roughly cut in half be-
fore the close. Industrial and utility
shares encountered considerable pro-
fit-taking and several closed l to 3
points lower. The turnover exceeded
100000 shares. The closing tone was
somewhat heavy.
The sweeping upturn in rails was
accompanied by another furry OF
gossip in brokerage circles that the
Interstate Commerce commiss o n
might announce its decision on the
plea for higher freight rates over the
weekend. When it was reported
from Washington, howeevr, tn at

SHARP SETBACKS IN
GRAIN PRICES LAID
TOPROFIT-
Fact That Wheat Had Advanced
Almost Five Cents Is Fur
ther Cause

Chicago, Oct. S.-(R)-Sharp set
backs in grain prices late Friday were
ascribed largely to profit and
to the fact that wheat had made al
most S cents bushel advance this
week.
Reports of liberal new sales of Rus
sian wheat to Great Britain were a
contributing bearish influence. North
American wheat export purchases
were estimated at 100000 bushels,
chiefly Canadian wheat.
Wheat closed unsettled, 1-8 to 5-8
cents lower, Dec. 48 IA to 3-8, May
So 3-8 to 1-2. Corn Ia to / down,
Dec. "a 7-8 to IS; May 80 IA. Oats
Ia to 5-8 off. and provisions ~un-
changed to rise of 10 cents.
Opening 4 cent off to Is up, wheat
later underwent a general sag. Corn
started 1s-h lower and continued to
point downward.
Wheat prices which developed after
early downturns were associated with
recoveries in securities and with buy
ing based on assertions by a Chicago
grain trade authority that never be-
fore in the month of October had the
worlds wheat situation harbored so
many substantial possibilities of sup
ply decreases. He cited large reduc-
ton of wheat acreage in the southern
hemisphere, damaging drought in the
American and Canadian northwest
still unbroken, and likelihood of lib
eral curtailment of domestic winter
wheat seeding southwest with a poor
start by fully 100000 acres. An ad-
ditional bullish circumstance en-
phasized was enlarged per capita use
Of wheat going on at the expense of
costlier foods owing to industrial diff
ficulties.
Some wheat buying was ascribed to
a leading Speculator. who was credit
ed with taking more than a million
bushels. Continuance of serious Jap
anese- Chinese hostilitieS attracted no.
tice in this connection. Corn and oats
swayed with wheat. A strengthening
influence helping the corn market up
ward from early declines was word
that an excellent demand for corn to
be shipped to the Pacific coast lNd
become manifest.
Provisions reflected a persistant un-
usual percentage of light weights in
hog arrivals.
