Despite the fact that Mr. Dollar found that European nations were! contemplating the greatest junking of liner tonnage in the history of international shipping, he said that the United States was short of sufficient vessels of the Manhat-

"I think that we shall not only! keep the business we have put that we shall have to put on additionall passenger tonnage and freight ser- vices to keep pace and get Ameri-j ca's rightful percentage of trade asi against competing lines," said M2. Dollar.

"We have to have and maintaini the right number of ships in order to be the strongest factor in the north Atlantic service. So, a third ship like the Manhattan, would give us a weekly sailing and pos- sibly an adequate service. Natur- ally, the question of such A new ship will come up at a conference which I shall attend soon in New York. When such a ship will be built I cannot say at this time.

"But it is most gratifying to find at this period of the year than 1,350 passengers arriving on the Leviathan. The fact is that in recent months the Americans who formerly travelled, in many in- jatances, on foreign ships are now patronising our American vessels. We must here express our apprecia- tion of this fact.

The new talinn super-speed ships shall not affect us, as we do not cover the same trade route, But possible we shall feel the com- petition of certain speed liners now under construction in other foreign yards.
