The commission in London, with representatives of all the Allied na- tions, including the United States, ‘would receive and decide upon the ap- portionment of seaborne traffic. The commission here would then charge itself with getting such supplies to the seaboard, either by direct pur- chase or through present agencies. ‘While the inroads of the eubma- rine menace continue, it is abso- lutely essential to conserve every ehip for the most needed freight and the only way that this can be done is to have the Allies’ submit their needs to @ central body in London, which @hall have power to give pri- ority to the most pressing.
