ROYLE. (Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune) Naw YORK, April 4.—Pre Uminary «skirmishes took place Thursd in the struggle over en- forcement on May 20 of section 28 of the Jones Merchant Marine act under which goods imported or ex- ported in American ships would be entitled to preferential ratlroad rates in this country. Tach side in the ¢ontroversy {is massing its forces and the struggle promises to be sharp and bitter. Scores of im- porters, railroad men and merchants gathered in Washington to attend the hearings before the house com- mittee on merchant marino while the United States shipping board and its adherents prepared to com- bat this opposition to enforcement of the act. Commissioner Frederick I. Thompson, of the shipping board, outlined the attitude of that body when he declared that since the board has certified to the Interstate Commerce commission that ample American tonnage now existed to handle imports and exports in American vessels the act must go into effect on -the date specified, ~unless congress passes-® law proyid- Ing. otherwise, ~ } “It is believed that the applica’ ton of section 28 of the merchant marine act will augment greatly the tonnage moving in American ships, tend to stabilize Mnancially the operation of stratégic trade routes, be helpful toward the ultimate acquisition of ships by private operators now engaged in overseas trade and lessen the losses now en- talled by government operation of vessels," he sald. “It is to be hoped that the ship- Ping board having established stragic essential trade routes in order that both the spirit and the letter of the law might be met, will be given opportunity to test the beneficial aspects of this section of the act which was unquestionably designed by congress to bring into being a merchant marine repre- sentative of the position occupied by the United States among the nations.” Shippers, merchants and railroad men, in opposing this view, ask vehemently why they should be forced at Inconyenlence and cost to themselves to bolster up the ship- ping board, the policy of which many of them oppose. The Mer- chants’ association here has deter- mined to take action to secure re- peal of gection 28 declaring it can only lead to retaliation by other nation: Members of the -associa- Commodity Canned Goods, SACRAMENTO—Al! the canner- ies im the Sacramento valley are operating at full capacity packing the asparagus crop which bids fair to be of normal size Cespite the spring drought. Growers are re- Geiving 4% to 6 cents a pound Dry Goods. CHICAGO—March sales of Mont- gomery Want and company totaled $14,068,643" bringing the volume for the flest quarter to §37,863.932, a gain of over $7,000,000 as compared with 1923. Sears Roebuck sales for March were $17,381,442. Still greater increases are expected this month, Cotton, HOUSTON—Houston today cele brated the shipment abroad of the millionth bale of cotton this sea, son, This sets a new record for this port, Carpets, BOSTON—Carpet workers who are on strike in mills in thie seo tion have refused a compromise of- fer of $1,10 an hour. They have been getting §1 an hour and demand $1.25. Paints. CITY—More than a ainters here are on strike asking an increase of $2 a Cay to $10r This has acted os a check on the sale of paints and var, nishes. KANSAS thousand =f Grain. SAN FRANCISCO— The harley crop of California this year will be under 425000 tons, according to em tion point ont that If the provisions of the section are made effective foreign buyers will insist on mak- ing their purchases of American goods cif, or cost, insurance and freight, which would allow the buy- ers to specify that the goods be shipped in ships of their own coun- tries and that they would be in a position to make the American pro- ducer stand the differential in freight rates thus incurred. Im- porters say that foreign producers by selling on a delivered basis can also make them stand the difference on goods shipped to this country Several foreign nations already have protested against operation of the act. Raflrond men claim that the operation of the section would create discrimination between do: Mestic roads engaged in interstate commerce: The American Steam, ship Owners’ association also opposes the measure and advocates an amendment proposed by Repre- sentative Newton of Minnesota which would place enforcement. of Preferential rates at the discretion of the interstate commerce com: mission. The. United States Flour Millers and Flour Exporters have taken an even more emphatic stand. They holdly question whether there are enough American ships to handle shipments satisfactorily. A memo- randum issued in their behalf to- day says unless the shipping board can be induced to withdraw its certification business interests will be obliged to attack the ruling of the Interstate Commerce commis- sion making the provisions of sec- ton 28 effecti by raising ‘the question to the adequacy of | American services, Other business interests consider that more effective action may be taken against the operation of the preferential rates by means of ap- Piications for injunctions from the court The Newton amendment is strongly supported by some of the grain shippers of the middle west, who will appear before the house committees to urge its adoption. Inquiry among members of the house committee indicates that the majority recommends a lifting of preferential rates in American bot- toms and express the opinion that it would be difficult to convince the committes a change was necessary, The committee, they indicate, was committed to a policy of protect- ing American bottoms by preferen- Ual rates to and from American ports on goods for shipment under the Americ flag.
