EMERGENCY FLEET CORPORATION AND SHIPPING BOARD.

A bill to divores, the Energency Fleet Corporation from the U.S." Shipping Board, and providing for one man control of shipping, in line with the desires of the Administration, was in- troduced in the Senate on December 8th by Senator, Wesley L. Jones, of Washing- ton, and was referred to the Commerce Committer, of which he is the chairman. Senator Edge, of New Jersey, also introduced a bill abolishing the Shipping Board and transferring its functions to the Emergency test Corporation. The bill further gives the President power to transfer any portion or all of these functions to the Department of Com- merce. The bill would permit a division of the Shipping Board, to be assigned as desired by the President or the Secretary of Commerce.

PROMOTION OF TRADE,

The Jones Bill reattirme policy declared fa. Section 1, of the "shipping Act of 1920, and adds that it is to be the intention of the Government to promote the establishment, and mainten. ance of shipping routes and provide such & merchant dret, as may be necessary to promote the foreign, trade of the United brates and to make available adequate merchant shipping tor the national defence. It states further that such and merchant fleet will be provided and maintained by the Cov- ernment, if necessary, until the same are taken over to be maintained by private, enterpris

Toutes

Section 3 of the bill calls upon the. board to transfer to the head of the Ficct Corporation the shares of stock of the corporation held by it, as well as all vessels, vessel equipment and sup- plies, docks, piers, warehouses and other property which the Board now controls, with all matters pertaining thereto. Thereafter the power and authority now vested in the board for the control, eustody, maintenance, repair, employ ment and insurance will bo exercised exclusively by the corporation.

Control over docks, piera, warehouses and torminal equipment and facilities would be retained by Congress through the requirement that any sale thereof must be sanctioned by Congress.

The construction loan fund would ra main under the control of the Shipping Board. The Fleet Corporation would assume all contracts or agreements re- lating to the vessels and other property, except as to docks and piers.

Section 6 of the bill provides for the etablishment of new lines by requiring that when the Board has reason to" believe such additions are desirable there fact shall be communicated to the Secretary of Commerce with a view to secking the establishment of such a line by private interests.

ROYAL SCOTTISH ACADEMY; CENTENARY,

Arrangements are being made in Edin- burgh to celebrate the centenary, which occurs in 1928, of the Royal Scottish Academy. A fund is being raised for this purpose, and the Town Council of Edin burgh propose to make a grant of £105 towards this object from the Common Good of the city, the Academy having no fands of its own to meet the expenditure thus incurred.

A centenary exhibition, to be held in. the spring, will comprise works of Scot- tish artists living and deceased, and it is hoped to illustrate in an adequate manner the development of Scottish art through- out last century, from the time of Wilkie and Raeburn to the present day.

Founded in 1828, the Royal Scottish Academy sprang from a body known as the Society of Scottish artists, and was formed on the model of the Royal Academy of London. The Academy was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1839, and supplementary charters were obtained in 1691 and 1805. It consists of thirty Academicians and an unrestricted number of Associates..,
