SHIPPING BOARD...
SALE OF ATLANTIC SERVICES.
Action on the advertising for anle of the Shipping Roard's two Atlantic cargo services has been deferred (states a Washington message) until such time as a report is furnished by a committee consisting of Commis sioners Philip S. Teller, W. S. Hill and Jefferson Myers, designated by the Board to consider the projected sale of the three Government owned cargo"
lines operating out of Pacific Coast parts.
This committee was instructed to report promptly and submit new tenders of sale for the full Board's consideration. The Atlantic services Involved are the American West African and the America-France lines. The three transpacific lines are, the American Australian Orient, Ameri- can Oriental Mail and Qregon Oriental..
Al its last meeting the Board had before it tenders for the sale of the five services, but considered those for the Pacific Const linux "as not meet-
