Book Description
Excerpt from Pacific Marine Review: The National Magazine of Shipping; July 1921 President Harding and confirmed by the Sen ate. We append hereto the list of the personnel of this complete board, together with a brief summary of their experience and present status in the business world. Two facts stand out prominently in this personnel htat. Neither of the principal ports of the United States, San Francisco and New York, is represented on the board; second, there is almost no practical shipping experience represented. We take it for granted that President Harding. Having put so much thought upon the matter of the selection of this board and feeling very keenly his own responsibility for the problems which await solution in the future of the American merchant marine, has made his selec tions with a definite policy in view. We know that the policy of the administration, as expressed in any public utterances, is that the Shipping Board shall get out of active participation in the shipping busi ness as quickly as possible, and we gather from the composition of this new board that the President wishes the policy of the board to be one of supervision over our maritime trade and our participation in inter national shipping policy.

Ships That Sail No More
Author: Giles T. Brown
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813194415
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
This chronicle of coastal shipping in the western United States forms an important but hitherto neglected part of the history of transportation in America. From the beginning the seaways were a vital link among the developing West Coast settlements, and even after the completion of a north-south rail line sturdy steamers continued to serve as the major carriers of freight and passengers along the Pacific Coast and as the chief economic and cultural contact of this region with the rest of America. Here, Giles T. Brown surveys this transportation system at the height of its activity and in particular he traces the history of the Admiral Line which dominated West Coast shipping during the early decades of the twentieth century—and whose decline mirrored that of the industry.
