U, S. TO RUN SHIPS
GOVERNMENT OPERATION MAY
NOT BE ABANDONED
WASHINGTON. Oct. 31.—Govern
ment operation, more of it than be
fore, and probably for all time, hast
been embarked upon by the United (
States Shipping Board.
After many weeks of maneuvering,
on the part of the shipping interestsf
to get possession at low prices of the
fleet built during the war and after!
the Chamber of Commerce of the U.
S. had appealed to the president to
turn the ships over to private opera
tors, the shipping board has gone
ahead with plans exactly in line with
the announcement made by the late
President Harding when the ship sub
sidy bill failed to come to a vote in
the last session of congress.
The shipping board will operate its
own vessels. The system of handling
them through managing operators who
received a commission on gross busi
ness done whether it was at a profit
or a loss has been abolished.
