SHIPPING IN TASMAN
NEW YORK PRESS COMMENT MEANS TO OBTAIN SUBSIDIES NEW YORK, Dec. O The Now York Herald-Tribune, in a leading article on tho question of shipping in the Tasman, outlined tho history of tho controversy. The article stated: "It is suspected that the legislation by Australia aild Now Zealand is intended more as a means of obtaining subsidies for compotitivo British services than of ending competition. If so, Australia and New Zealand still liavo cause to bo grateful for tho energising influence of the Matson Lino and others.
"While recognising that ship subsidy wars arc bad enough, wo are glad that there will bo no extension of tho ilag monopoly principle, which would bo a disastrous reversal of tho world's present feeblo efforts in tlio direction of lowering barriers and freeing trade."
