St. Dist. 2010 U.S. LINES BUYERS | - CONFER ON RATE - Prospective Purchasers Hold‘ San Francisco Meeting on Rivals’ Operations. | By the Assoclated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, October 9.—Joint | operation, financing and reorganization | of the United States Lines was the sub- | ject of a meetng here yesterday between | | Herbert Fleishnacker, financier, and | representatives of the Dollar-Chapman- Dawson shipping interests and the International Mercantile Marine-Roose- | veit Lines. Participants said the meeting had to | do solely with the United States Lines, | which for months have been a bone of contention between the rival shipping, groups, and with the fixing of rates for Both intercoastal and transatlantic lines. | Representativesof the groups asserted | that they did not discuss a merger of | the vast shipping interests controlled by | the two agencies and that no consolida- tion was contemplated. Rate Separation Reported. The Chronicle, however, quoted an unnamed spokesman for Fleishhacker as saying the conferees discussed a plan | whereby all American shipping lines, both passenger and freight, might operate profitably without crossing the | schedules, rates and routes of each | other. | _Robert Dollar, R. Stapley Dollar, | Kermit Roosevelt and John M. Frank- lin were the principals meeting with | Fleishhacker, the Dollars representing their own interests and those of Ken- neth Dawson, Portland, Oreg., and Paul Chapman of the United States Lines. Franklin and Roosevelt represented the I M. M.-Roosevelt lines. Both the Dollar-Chapman-Dawson _interests and the I. M. M.-Roosevelt group were bid- | ders for the Tight to operate the United States Lines. Operations Discussed. | The United States Shipping Board suggested the two opposing interests get together on the operation and drew up a contract with the Dollar-Chapman- Dawson group relating to the purchase of the lines, which the prospective buy- ers have until October 15 to sign. The I. M. M.-Roosevelt represent- atives, after the contract was drawn up, approached the Dollar group, suggesting the two get together, and Dollar re- plied that unless an agreement on both Atlantic and intercoastal rates could be worked out there could be mo discus- sions. The meetings continued today rela- | tive to the rate and schedule operations | of the lines. | SHIP MERGER PLAN REPORTED. NEW _YORK, October 9 (#).—The Herald-Tribune said today steps to organize a merger cf 12 American and foreign shipping companies owning and controlling 181 passenger and cargo |lines, with a total of 1500000 gross | tons, were taken at a meeting in San | Francisco attended by Herbert Fleisch- | hacker, Capt. Robert Dollar, R. Stanley Dollar, Kermit Roosevelt and John M. Frankiin, | " The merger, if concluded, the paper said, would bring under one head com- panies operating from Atlantic and Pacific Coast ports of the United States to Eurcpe, the Orient, around the world |and in the intercoastal trades. Roosevelt and Dollar interests were | expected to take the lead in_direction cf the merged lines. Paul W. Chap- man, owner of the United States Lines, was reported willing to step aside if assured present shareholders of the company would be protected. Basil Harris, vice president of the Roosevelt-I. M. M. Lines, declined to comment _on _the reported proposed merger. R. Stanley Dollar, president of the Dollar Lines, attended a meet- ing here three weeks ago with Vincent Astor_and Roosevelt, when the merger was first discussed, and when he laid the plans before Fleischhacker the banker immediately summoned the Roosevelt Line officlals, the Herald- Tribune said. Astor is a director of the Roosevelt-I. M. M. Lines. 1t is believed that one big holding company would be organized, but that the Roosevelt and Dollar Lines will retain separate identities. The former would look after transatlantic opdia- tions and the latter the transpacific. The various intercoastal services, the newspaper says, probably would be grouped and operated jointly.
