 SEATTLE sR A new type of ocean going vesseI is going to be seen on the Seattle waterfront un- der plans announced by the Alaska Steamship Co-
 sisi Tie ii1evssa vessesaa is is 3 trai.ashin design ed to carry 56 railroad cars for handling all types of rail freight, including piggyback and containers.
 The ship, the City of New Or leans, will open new kind of service to Alaska. She will carry railroad cars from here to Whittier, where they will be transferred to the Alaska railroad.
 D. E. Skinner, president of Alas ka Steam, making the announce ment Wednesday, said:
 For the first time, the Alaska Rail Belt, served by the Alaska Railroad, will be connected with all areas of the AS contiguous states by fast schedule through rail serv- ice in conjunction with Seattle's four transcontinentaI railroads, the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, Union Pacific and Milwaukee, whose active cooperation, together with that of Alaska Railroad, has facilitated development of plans for this new service. Significant service benefits and savings in costs should result for Alaska consumers and shippers and give new impetus to Alaska's economic growth The trainship service will be in addition to present conventional services of Alaska Steam, Skinner said.
 The City of New Orleans, which formerly ran between Atlantic and Gulf ports and Cuba, is now under Liberian registry. Congressional action will be necessary to permit her transfer tc the American flag Bills to accomplish this were in. troduced in the Senate "Wednesday by Sen F. U. Bartlett and in tht House by Rep.

 Kennedy bundled up his ideas in 10,O00-word transportation mes sage and sent 1t off to Congress He ignored former President Ei- senhower's recommendation for creation of a government Depart ment of Transportation.
 The $500 million would be only a first installment, spread over three years, to be given to public agencies. They would put up some partially matching funds and use the combined federal-local money for 'sthe revitalization and needed expansion of public mass trans portation.
 For Travelling Public
 For the travelling public and for bulk freight grain, coal, ore = and farm and fishery products, Kennedy recommended that Con- gress end minimum rates pre- scribed under federal regulation. Just what passengers on what lines might get lower rates in time was not spelled out. But federal off cials said they hoped for some bargain rates to attract people away from cars" as well as for congressional action to prevent price wars.
 The rate and mass transit rec- concentrations, and a string of others, were parts of vast, long range attack on complicated, con troversiaI problems Kennedy said fare burdening our national trans portation system, jeopardizing the progress and security on which we depend"
 Tn general, Kennedy spoke for continued reliance on private trans port and for what he termed fundamental, far-reacn1Yg reTornls in federal policies reforms de- signed to downgrade regulating and subsidizing and make carriers fit, lean and progressive by vigorous competition and innovation. 2
