FREEDOM OF SEAS T0 ALL SHIPPING 15 URGED BY HURD Nationalization Would Have Been Serious Handicap, He States 'MASS CARRIAGE" "Must Be No Barriers Against Foreign Ships" (By Sir Archibald Hurd, Edit Zt "The Shipping World") The sale of the ships owned by the Governnmrent of Australia marks the end of another story of State in tervention in industry. The post- war demand for nationalizing ship- ping is now seldom heard, but at one time it seemed as though the mercantile vessels of the whole world might pass from private own- ership. Various ingenious schemes were prepared for nationalizing British shipping, one, which was supported by highly placed naval officers," involved the Marine De- partment of the Board of Trade, being handed over to the Admiralty while another would have meant the creation of a new department, Leading shipowners may have some conception of the danger in which British shipping stood at this time, but it may be doubted whether the taxpayers generally, of the Mother Country or the peoples of the Empire overseas, realize tne debt of gratitude which they owe to Lord Maclay, I am reminded of an illuminat- ing incident in this connection. A IG ul NATIONAL GROCERS WHOLESALE DISTR BU TAR § and a similar quantity arriving ev-] ery day from a similar distance. Vitamin "A™ of e peoples of the Dominions and Colonies of the British Empire are not directly concerned with the means of transport of the in- habitants of the British Isles, but they are concerned indirectly be- cause the same ships as enter and leave British ports each day are en- gaged in carrying their cargoes If those ships were not efficiently operated, they would suffer. It is true; as the Americans learnt to their heavy cost during and after the war, when they carried out an intensive program of building, that merchant vessels cannot be produc- ed by "mass production' methods, like motor cars, but there are great advantages in "mass carriage" by ships--in having plenty of vessels competing for the carriage of car- goes. It is because thereare thou- sands of British ships that British hipowners, the legatees of fine sea traditions, can provide such cheap and safe transport. Among those traditions one is of primary impor- tance--Freedom. Freedom is essen- tial if transport is to be efficient and cheap. ELEPHANTS WOULD " DRINK RIVER DRY Three Herds With Sparks' Circus Consume Encugh In Year to Float Ship Did you ever carry water for the elephant? If so, you can easily imagine that the accompanying il- lustration is the dream of the youngster on the night before the circus. One of these huge bz2asts con- sumes in a single day more water [than is required for the boiler of your heating plant. The / herds with Sparks Circus drink in T_T. an island and that all British in- dustries are either conducted near *he sea coast or are carried on in distriets connected with the sea ny ranals, That is a consideration which the inhabitants of overseas varts of the Empire may well note. At a recent conference of the In- stitute of Transport. in London, the ndvantages of sea over rail trans- port were emphasized in a striking way. It was pointed out that the total capital expenditure on the railways of Great Britain is about 1,200 million pounds, while the capital expenditure on the 20 mil- lion gross tons of British ships is probaby about one-quarter of the railway figure, allowing for expen- diture on short organizations at home and abroad, the sum may he about one-third of the railway fig- ure, When contrast is made bhe- tween the service obtained from the railways and the ships, the re- sult is remarkable. The total ton- nage conveyed by British railways each year, taking 1925 as the basis of calculation, is 316 million tons, and the ton-miles total jis 18,332 farewell dinner was given to mark the winding up of the Ministry of Shipping. Weeks and months pass- | od, and the Ministry of Shipping was not wound up, It was only | ifterwards that it became known | that Lord Maclay had refused to abandonphis work until he was as- sured that no scheme of natjonaliza- tion or of Admiralty control woud be imposed upon the British mer- chant navy. The danger was im- | minent throughout Mr. Lloyd | George's period of office, and, had it not been for Lord Maclay.and a tew outstanding shipowners who gathered round him, the British Merchant Navy might now be in a bankrupt condition, a burden on | the already heavily burdened tax-| payers. A Serious Handicap The nationalization of British shipping would have been a serious | handicap on inter-Imperial trade. | How many people realize that if! the British Empire were not united by the seas and oceans of the world, there would be litle prospect of a healthy development of Empire commerce. It is the cheapness of ocean transport which offers to tue British peoples all over the world the assurance that, if they have goods of quality to sell--either, un the one hand, primary goods like grain, meat, dairy produce, sugar or rubber, or, on the other, manu- factured goods--they can compete with no mean advantage against foreign competition, apd in a much greater degree, upon the railways. The carriage of goods, as well as the carriage of passengers, by rail, is 80 costly that the charge consti- | tutes a drag on the industries of | countries which are far removed trom the sea. The prosperity of 'he Mother Country is due, of course, mainly to the fact that it is millions. Shipping to and from the United Kingdom, on the other hand, reaches the enormous total of 730,000 millin-ton miles, which represents forty times as much work as is done hy the railways with three times as much capital. The comparison is not of like with like, it may be argued. To take the movements of tonnage to and from the United Kingdom as repre- senting the equivalent of the work done hy the tonnage owned in the United Kingdom ignores the fact that some British ships are engag- ed in foreign trades, and some Bri- tish trade is carried in foreign ships, But, if investigation on a more exact scale were undertaken, the figures obtained would un- doubtedly show even a higher fig- ure of carrying by British tonnage. The work done by shipping to and from Great Britain is equal to one million tons of cargo leaving the country every day of the year for a voyage of one thousand miles, Yel Smooth Texture Soft, glowing color and velvet smooth- sees are the skin's reflections of " blood ezith " within.
