The first action of the board was to place $2,250,000,000 on the debit side of the ledger and draw a red line thra the figures. This represents the depreciation in the cost price of the 1,708 govern- ment-owned vessels and the remain- ing figures, $750,000,000, will serve as an approximate basis for disposal of the ships. Lasker announced that he and his colleagues on the board would ener- getically tackle the problem of stop- ping leakage of taxpayers’ money into the upkeep of the marine which is now flowing at the rate of over $2,000,000 per week. ‘The plan the board is expected to follow, and which is said to have the approval of President Harding, ie to seek purchasers for the ships among lines and shipowners who will keep the vessels under the American flag.
