One of these with which we will be much ouncerned very soon after the restoration of peace is that of the bet gotiation of new commercial treaties to replace those that have been de- nounced by the Governments assoc} ated with us in the war." "An argument for the repeal of the La k‘oilette seaman's law prescribing the numbe r of sailors to be employed aboard a ship and fixing the wages to be paid them was advanced in a report submitted by the committee on mt‘r'r chant marine. which is corrrpoaed of Mr. Farrell, chairman; i’.

The economic effect of the seaman's law, the committee declared. would make impossible the retention— apd operation of the newly construct- ed American merchant marine under the American flag. ‘* “For one thing is absolutely sure said the report.
