IIWKV KKI'TKKN AGAIN TO QI1T (Continued From Page One) declared thai the president is determ ined to end dissension between ship ping hoard commissioners. Mr. Coolidge thinks It has been -diown that some . members of the hoard are not in harmony with, his merchant marine policy, and his ef forts to promote efficiency and econ omy in government. On the whole he realizes, however, that the board has shown a tendency to co-operate with him and he believes the situation will improve materially from now on. No New Plan Proposed. It was stated that the president has in mind no new plan of handling the government merchant marine and would not resort to a change In policy affecting the shipping board unless forced to do so by the hoard Itself. It was the president's understand ing with board members, it was de clared, that ' they 'Were to go ahead with the operation plan he approved and t hat meanwhile the executives would make no effort to press for legislation changing the status of the hoard. In regard to the merchant marine, it was reiterated thai the president believes it should 'be maintained with a view to providing fur national de fense and for benefiting the country. It was pointed out that the presi dent was of the belief that the gov ernment fleet should be transferred lo private ownership as soon as practic able and for this reason had sup ported I 'resident Palmer of the Fmorgency Fleet corporation in his efforts to sell ships to private owners. The shipping problem is a difficult one. Die president realizes, chiefly he cause It is a losing enterprise so far as the American government Is con cerned. This fact, he believes, makes those directing the shipping policy subject to almost continual criticism, en courages (plat riding bet ween those in charge and increases the tendency to shift blame.
