Opposed House Shipment Subsidy Report Debated
The Democratic minority on the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee filed a minority report opposing the shipping subsidy bill. Representative Fitzgerald of Massachusetts led the report, joined by Devries, Chanler, Small, Ransdell, and Speight, arguing subsidies favor a few lines and do not boost American shipping or exports. The report cites figures for the St Paul line and Cunard, contending subsidies would mostly aid prosperous carriers while harming ordinary freight and taxpayers.
