TWO MESSAGES
 BEING PREPARED

Hyde Park, N. Y. Feb 25-(UP) In the seclusion of his Hudson valley home President Roosevelt today put the finishing touches to two important messages to con- gress-one dealing with American shipping, the other with transpor' tation. MT Roosevelt hoped to com plcte the shipping message within the next 24 hours. If no interrup. tions occur, 1t was said, he would have 1t ready for presentation to congress by tomorrow, or Wednes. day, at the latest.
 While he has given no inlsling of his recommendations. 1t was ass sumed he would urge direct sub- sidy for American shipping to re- place the present mall subsidies. In the transportation messages, friends were confident he would ask con- gross to give the government closer supervision over all forms of land. water and air transportation.
