This is not likely to alter the declared policy of the United States. Government to sell its ships | only to American citizens. "On the contrary, there is a good deal of talk of trying to persuade Congress to subsidise private American ownership.

The fact that the ships are pur chasable by American citizens at absurdly low prices itself consti- tutes a form of subsidy, but the difficulty is that they cannot be operated without loss irrespective. of Any capital values. The Government fleet at presont amounts to over 5 million tons, of which only one-third is in service, and the ships that are in service call on the Treasury to fortify their accounts year by year.. No provi sion is made for replacements, and it is perfectly obylous that few of the ships will ever get replaced.
