REDUCTION ESSENTIAL (Continued from First Page.) the war, Chairman Benson continued, have caused tremendous decline in ocean freight, the tying up of many ships and the unemployment of many men. Six points on which the marine en- gineers asked favorable assurances before discussing wages in the pres- ent negotiations were rejected by the chairman. The board, he said, could not give its consent to the abolition ot the sea service bureau which places American seamen on American ships. “Nor can it consent,” he continued, “as a gov- ernment institution to points five and six involving union preference. The board as a government institution must stand for that equality in its re- lations to the government which 1a guaranteed to every citizen by the constitution of the United States.” Points two, three and four which referred to interpretation of the sea- men’s act, he said, must be rejectea as long as the law was in force.
