Shipping Controller, provides elaborate statistics indicating formidable American competition: But ocean competition is very largely, indeed entirely, controlled by the rate of wagas obtaining on land. and that rate in the case of the United States is so phenomenally high that she can never hope to staff her ships. The great game of the ocean, writes Prof. More- ton Frewen, is not for her: the prizes ia that
