AMOUNT ALLOWED SHIPPINGBOARD E HARDLY HUGH : Indications Are While Conferees : Thought Amount Provided Suf- ficient It Will Fall Short. DEVELOPMENTS' TO DECIDE Much Deoends Uoon Demand for .... . - i - ' - Ships Whether Reinstatements of All Contracts Can Be Made. . Washington. July 12. (WASH INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR- 'NAL) W1H the amount congress has just appropriated for the ship pins' board enable It to complete Its present program, of unsuspended con- , 'tracts? Will it allow for any rein statements ? -; v . :. 4 'Answers can b had both waya The best ascertainable estimates .Indicate 'that while the conferees believed ; they I were providing money -"' enough, they 1 i probably fell short of doing so.' Iuah - 1 depends upon future developments as to I the market , for ships which the "board desires to eeUviv. r";i;;,,Vf " Mere recital of ths fact that the house recently allowed:-i76,000,000; that the ''senate increased the amount to $491, , 000.000 and ; that the .conferees reached ' , a compromise on $56,0O0,0O0, the amount ; finally agreed ; upon, does not tell the .stary. It. Is. complicated.. by the esti ' mated return from unexpended balances and sale of ships.-5.::'- . Chairman Hurley went to- the house with an estimate of 9704.000,000 to sup ply the needs of completion of,, the ex -i .latins program treating all suspension - as cancellations, and yet contending that funds probably could be found for mak ing a limited number of reinstatements. BEASOH8 FOK BEDTCCTI6WS -As a result ot hearingsr the shipping board officials concurred In the conclu sion of the house appropriations com mittee that: this estimate 'could be . re " duced In the sum of $213,000,080 by rea son of accretions -from these sources t Unexpended balance from . housing funds. $6,000,000. ' Balance- from ' transportation,. $10, ooo.ooo. ; 4- Balance from ship construction in for eign yards, $4,000,000. Balance from plant appropriation, $25, .000.000. - - Balance, from foreign ships, requisi tions, etc., $118,000,000.: , : "Estimated : from sales of ships, one fourth cash on aggregate sales of $200, 000.000. $50,000,000. 7 . ... : ,- In addition to this total of $213,000,000, which the shipping board conceded, the bouse made an additional cut, of $215. O00.000, based on the following:, ', . An estimated additional amount of $25,000,000 to be derived from the sale of. ships, increasing the aggregate ' amount of-salea to $300,000,000. Use of the capital stock of $50,000,000, on the theory that the business Is soon to-be. closed up. , - - ' Use of $0,000,000 working capital. ; 'Finally, a cut of $80,000,000 in the pro gram of new ship construction. - - The senate figures of $491,000,000 cojr " responded to the figures conceded by the shipping board, obtained by subtracting $213,000,000 from the original estimate Of $704,000,000. . ESTIMATE HELD TOO BIO The figures ultimately accepted rep resent. . the l -additional reduction pro posed , by the house with the exception of; the $80,000,000 cut in the shipbuilding , program. ' - , The appropriation Is, therefore, based: upon the theory that after using all un expended balances, capital stock and working capital, it will be possible to derive $75,000,000 from the sale of ships within the next fiscal year, or one j fourth the purchase price of $300,000,000 worth of ships. ' - - ;-:- - '- This Is a larger turn from sales by $25,000,000 than the shipslng board has believed It safe to estimate. Conceding . tbat there is a big demand for "spot delivery" ships at prices ' equalling r exceeding the cost of construction, be cause It is possible : jusOnow, to make earnings 'even upon a valuation of $300 per ton. shipping men are not sanguine that these conditions will last long. They doubt that the market can absorb ships in! the amount-contemplated by the congressional estimates. ; -- On the other hand, there may be some . .'leeway In the figures of ? unexpended balances and salvage of materials. Some of' these balances may prove larger than stated, and by "scaring up" ail the loose ends the shipping board " may y et be able to make out with the program and take care of the most urgent' cases of reinstatement. -, . j i 'Some of the divergence of ideas in the senate Is shown by this coUoauys " Senator - Smoot of Utah'; I 'have not any doubt, that the amount the confer ees have agreed on will carry the ship ping board on. The appropriation now provided iaj not going to Interfere with the completion, the maintenance or the running ot a single boat. " ' Senator McKellar of Tennessee : It will merely mean the cancellation of con tracts to the extent of $135,000,000, to the very greatt loss of tn government ana toi tho failure . of the . building of the " .merchant marine " That Is what It does. Mr. Smoot: 1 will say to the senator that there will not be the cancellation of one ton. of shipping. t Mr. McKellar : 1 X am sure the senator feels that be is correct, but I am iuite sure the senator Is mistaken about that. Mr Smoot,;. X am autt sure that 1 am not mistaken about it. , . . ; Water Consumption In Ohio Takes Jump 'Cleveland. Ohio, July 12. (I. N. &) - Onio is on the water-wagon for sure.
