From the Report of The President’s Adviscry Committee on the Merchant Marine, dated November, 1947, If she seems to have every- thing, try one of our CERTAIN INTERESTS have persistently promoted the view that the United States-Alaska trade should be thrown wide open to foreign flag vessels, contrary to the best interests of Alaska and to the American shipping policy effective since 1789. They obviously have not considered the inevitable results of such a move. Glass Pieces with Silver Inlay Cheaper foreign labor would enable foreign operators to force American ships from the trade. Once this was accomplished Alaska would be entirely dependent upon foreign steamship companies. Lack of governmental control and lack of obligation to Alaska would probably, lead the foreign companies to desert all but the most profitable routes during the most profit- able seasons. Off season service would likely stop, as would service to irregular ports. This would seriously impair the economy of Alaska. Beautiful and inexpensive and will go with any style of silver or china. Furthermore, to permit the disappearance of American vessels from the Alaska trade would bg acritical blunder from a national defense standpoint. The American Merchant Marine is the right arm of the United States Navy. Its value was forcefully demonstrated to Alaska during World War I when it kept the Territory supplied with-food and living essentials, provided the Navy with personnel trained in Alaskan waters, and supported the movement of all armed fcrccvx. Without the American Merchant Marine we hesitate to think of what the outcome of this war would have been.

However, we believe all must agree that ““l;hn}; the American Merchant Marine by throwing open the door to foreign competition would not gain the desired objective—completely adequate transportation to Alaska—but would, in fact, eliminate the possible attainment of this objective. Alaska and the American Merchant Marine must go forward together. The future of Alaslx.l—thc security of America depend on it.
