Probe Sought on Ship Deal Worth Millions
Representative Werchel demands an investigation into a ship sale seen as a $2,000,000 raid on the treasury. He cites the Navy’s 1942 transfer of the passenger ship Greater Buffalo to a private firm for $3,110,000 plus interest, while the Maritime Commission valued it at under $60,000 for private sale and equipment. He calls the vessel a nearly landlocked white elephant with $2,099,622 operating losses over ten years on Lake Erie, and urges action by the House Merchant Marine Committee and the House Committee on Expenditures.
