Shipping
Sir, —Mrs Grey advocates a State shipping line, and most fair-minded people will see the need for it. Private enterprise works some of the time in a capitalist country, but it does not work in the sphere of shipping. It is too large an undertaking and tends to become a monopoly. The Seamen’s Union is sponsoring the change, and like many good things that have arisen from the conferences of seamen, they show the results of superior thinking of which progressive persons should be proud. The seamen are the salt of the earth.—Yours, etc., P.J.A. December 17, 1968.
