that the general public was taking
a greater interest in the subject of

for ocean steamers. - H '
It is-estimated that 'the govern

$700,000,000 to place the merchant
marine in a ' position successfully to
' compete with the merchant marine
of other nations, i where subsidy
exists. - ' ' , '

of subsidy that the measure Was not
