"Japan

Tons, which means Japan is out to drive ships of other nations off the seas through cheap wages and other low operating costs."
Nor should Japanese ships be ports allowed to Invade other
international and trades where
the nexients may be created. Ferleration said in a statement on the present state of the Ameri- can Merchant Marine.
The Japanese merchant marine should not be allowed to expand beyond reasonable requirements of their domestic and
