Harding to urge private ownership aid for ship industry
Washington dispatch reports President Harding will ask Congress to shape a policy for government shipping after six months of appointee control. He plans to propose using a percentage of import duties as remuneration to American ship owners, labeling it not a subsidy but a costed support. The move aims to end the government ship program while debating public funding for an American merchant marine, noting private competitors abroad and the need to avoid treaty ruptures.
