R., Omaha, Neb., SHIP COMBINE NOT HARMEUL Englishman Who Says Morgan Syndicate 4 Noed Not Be Feared. HEAD OF GREAT SHIPBUILDING CONCERN Combination Will Be a Good by Stimulating Other Owners to Keep Abreast of the Times. Thing | snip | More LONDON, July 3.—The committee of the | House of Commons appointed to inquire | into the question of subsidies today heard | Willlam J. Pirrie, chatrman of the Harland & Wolft Shipbullding company. This witness, who figured so prominently | in the recent J. P. Morgan shipping com- | bination, expressed the opinion that sub- | sidies were given merely as a bounty and | serve to encourage inefficlency and that even where they could be legitimately be- stowed the tendency of subsidies would ba to foster individual as against gemeral in- terests. Mr. Pirrie regarded foreign sub- sidies as a blessing In disgulse, as they | stimulated other shipowners to keep more abreast of the times. Replylng to a question of the chairman, Mr. Pirrie sald the Morgan combine, which he proceeded to call a “community of in- terests,”” was established purely for com- mercial purposes and on entirely business principles. He was convinced that a dan- gerous international system was rapidly approaching at the time the deal was ef- tected, but by the creation of this com- munity of interests,-the future‘of British shipping, well as of British shipbuild- ing, was assured. In short, Mr. Pirrie considered the deal to be in every way satisfactory to' the British. Giving subsidies would only fn- vite retaliation in the most important markets of the world. The extent of state assistance to German shippiug was greatly exaggerated. Mr. Pirrie also sald that the feeling against the combination was due to mis- apprehension. All tbey had been doing was to act on the advice of the prince of Wales, when he said “England must wake | up.”” Mr. Pirrie thought the best way for| the government to help British shippiog was to deepen the approaches to and otherwise improve tbe chief ports.
