Shipping Subsidy Bill Backed by Frye in Senate
The ship subsidy bill, championed by Maine's Senator William P Frye, passed the Senate and aims to enlarge and strengthen the American merchant marine. Proponents say it connects national progress, supports inland states, and reduces dependence on foreign bottoms, with Frye praised by the New York chamber of commerce. Opponents cite interior state concerns, but supporters argue the policy benefits all regions as the country builds a stronger naval and commercial fleet.
