Federal employes traveling on Gov- ernment business must use American ships in preference to foreign-owned and operated vessels, it has been ruled by Controller General McCarl. This decision was handed down in the case of a trip to be made by the many, who plans a trip to Germany in | October of this year, end desired to go | by way of the Hamburg-American Line | to_Hamburg. | McCarl held that as there was an American ship of the United States Lines, America, sailing to Bremen, Gov- as the result, of what her physician|ernment travel expenses could not be allowed the American commissioner on the foreign ship. MecCarl further held that unless the commissioner traveled on the American line per diem allow- ances could not be given. “The fact that travel upon the Amer- ican vessel will entall a short rail journey and perhaps one day more ocean transportation cannot be con- | sidered as creating a necessity requiring | the use of a ship under a foreign flag lor as warranting a conclusion that the American vessel is not available,” said McCarl. “In view of the railroad con- ‘THURSDA nection between the two German ports it is not apparent why it would be im- practicable to transport overland the official records and documents which you deem it necessary to take with you in this case. Accordingly I am con- strained to hold that the use of a German vessel for the contemplated trip is not authorized under the law.” TWO KILLED IN CRASH. Maj.
