sad would not increase the sapply for the reason that there is no arplus tonnage to draw on and bat few vessels under construo- tion suited to the ocean carrying trade. The ships of neutral na- tions are all busily employed and the presen: high rates of freight maks it worth while for their own- ers to keep them running et fre- quently and as rapidly as possible in order to take advantage of the exceptional opportunity the pro- sent situation afunds for large earnings. Legislativo enactments if wisely determined can do more. than lay the foundation for the *-up building of American snipping on a permanent basin. "The ciatsu- that any special privileges, paste- Sands subsides. or Government ownership and control of shipping would tend to the immediate re- hat of the congestion of export freight at the porta is deceptive. It would be a long time before vessel construction in this country would be able to meet the requires ments of our export shipping and the twobase of foreign vessels could only be made at an exorbit ant figure. The outlook for the freight congestion is not s ing whichever way viewed.
