Ne. afr 735 SELLING THE GOVERNMENT SHIPS. There is a widespread chorus of approval of the plan worked out by of the shipping board for transferring, the govern- fleet The reasons Chairman Hurley ment merchant to private given by Mr. Hurley are recognized as sound. It was necessary, he says, for the government to undertake the buiid- ownership. ing and operation of a great com# mercial fleet as a war measure, be- cause private enterprise could not have accomplished so vast and com- plex a task. But with the wa ted, the situation is changed. For one thing, it would result in unpleasant complications with other nations if the United States govern- ment were running our ships when foreign ships are in private hands. the Chairman More important, however, consideration of efficiency. Hurley well says: “The chief argument in favor of private ownership and operation is that a successful merchant marine depends not so much on ships or money or government aid as i on the exi: alert, resourceful and energetic men_ engaged in the shipping business. The man who enters the shipping business enters a battle against the wits of the world. The formalities necessarily surrounding government operations are not suited to the successful con- duct of a shipping venture requiring quick decision, sudden reversals of of shipping consults policy and the assuming The man in an emergency He great hazards. successful no book of rules consults only his wits. So, it is contended, that only under pr. ownership may we ex- pect a further inc p num- ber of small, indey skilful ship oy » Which we shall need more g s the American mer- chant marine exy Manifestly, if is public utility whi more than any other, st by its very nature suc- ceed best under private ownership and control, it is the merchant ship- ping business. It is no field for the slow, lumbering, bureaucratic — pro- cesses of a ninent department. So desirable this stimulation of that the selling of private enterprise aimed ify the 600 or more ships already built, and the at it will doubtless hundreds now under con- struction, for considerably less than it cost the government to build them. The government will simply “write of” 20 or 30 per cent of the cost price #s “war loss,” with the hopeful prospect of the nation getting it back later in indirect benefits to business. The transfer of the ships, if the plan eces through, is to be carefully The bills of sale will provide that the vessels shall remain under the American flag, that their held by they shall not be safeguarded. ownership shall be Ameri- cans, that turned into any monopolistic shipping trust, that they shall charge fair rates for carrying freight and that they shall incorporate under federal charter. With such provisions it is likely that the public will approve, and that con- xress will grant the necessary authority Se THE SODA BAR.
