Should a reasonable amount of atock be "aubacribed'and theTn-evalltn entlmant favor some other proposal for securing Ships, tha joint committee of all the commercial bodies will probably change the plan now being worked under, and tha original purpose of fhe movement will be none the leaa energetically car-rled-forward.
