Mackenzie Kings Merchant Marine Costly For Can- adian People

LONDON, Jan. 27.—<En-quiry in city shipping circles here proves that Hon. lMacKenzie King's threat of a rate war against the North Atlantic steamship companies is not taken seriously. iAs fifty out of the sixty Canadian merchant ships are now ill commission, it is con~ eluded that Premier King intends to divert these ships from Cardiff and other ports where they are car rying on non-competitive buslncllfl. and put them in competition with

and cattle. -

Tile plan is not regarded with falvor at the Government iMercan- tlle lMarlne offices here. The onin! ion is expressed there that the Government ships. like the Can- adian National Railway, should be kept out of politics. The ships even now on non-competitive routes do not show a profit, and much hoov- ier subsidies would be required from the taxpayers to put them against all the lines belonging to the North Atlantic conferenceJThe managers of these latter point to their annual financial statements as an argument to show that rates cannot be filrther reduced. Their attitude is that if lMr. Mackenzie King ls going to fight private com- panies with a Government fleet they will make it costly for the Canadian people,
