PROVISIONS OUTLINED
WASHINGTON, May 8 The Adminis
tration shipping bill, with Government
ownership modified, will como up In tho
I House today. The conpleted draft of the
shipping control and merchant marine
measure will be Introduced by Representa
tive J. W Alexander, of Missouri, chalr-
"man of tho Merchant Marine Committee.
The bill ni It "will bo Introduced Is the
completed mo-mire adopted by tho com
mittee. It will bo referred back tt tho
f committee, nnd then reported out to tho
House Tuesday for reconsideration. Then
will begin tho supreme legislative light
of the session.
Majority Leader Iltchln announced to
night his completo satisfaction with tho
bllj, and promised to speak for It
'The committee hollo es It his prepared
a bill thtt will meet the objections of tho
opponents of C!oerntncnt ownership," sold
Representative AWinder "Wo hao pre
pared n mcnitipe that I think will meet nil
opposition to previous ship purchaso bills,
and I feel Hint tho pmiers of tho United
Stntes Shlpplnd Board are so set forth
that tho entire bill will bo adopted. v
TO BUY Olt BUILD.
'The bill provides for the purchase,
lease or charter of shjps for the merchant
marine by tho Shipping Boird, or It may
construct and equip such Bhlps, preference
being given to American shipyards and
navy yards. If tho Shipping Board, la un
able to leaso or chirter theso boats Jf shall
have authority to organize a "$50,000,000
corporation for purchaso, construction,
equipment, lease, charter, malntennnco(nnd
operation of merchant vessels In the com
merce of tho United Stntrs.
"The board, In behalf of tho Federal Gov
ernment, may subscribe nnd vote not less
than a majority of. tho Btock to protect,
the Interests of the United States. At the
oxplrattonof five years after the European
war, tho operation of any vessels by this
corporation In which tho United States Is
then a stockholder, shall cease, and tho
property shall revert to the board. The
$50,000,000 placed at the disposal of the
board Is to bo derived from tho sale of
Panama bonds.
"In view of the great amount of ton
nago nnd the demand for ships for the
South American trade, I do not bellevo It
will bo at all necessary to organize this
operating corporation, but feel fliire that
the shipping Interests will be glad to
charter tho vessels as fast as they are
acquired.
PERSONNEL OF BOARD.
"The board will bo composed df five
commissioners appointed by tho President,
not more than three from tho samo po
litical party, In addition to the Secretaries,
of Commerce and the Navy, who will be
ex-offlclo members. Confirmation by the
Senate Is necessary. The commissioners
are to receive $10,000 a year. No com
missioner shall be allowed employment
by any water carrier or hold any stock
In any shipping corporation, nor actively
cngnge In any other business."
Powers of tho shipping board to regu
late shipping and prevent discrimination
are set forth In tho following provisions
of tho bill:
Section 16. That no common carrlor by
water shall directly or Indirectly pay or
allow or enter Into any combination,
agreement or understanding, express or
Implied, to pay or allow a deferred re
bate to any shipper. Nor shall he or they
combine for tho purpose of excluding, pre
venting or reducing competition by driv
ing another carrlor out of said trade.
(They shall not retaliate agalnBt any ship
per by refusing, or threatening to refuse,
space accommodations, when such are
available, or resort to other- discriminat
ing or unfair methods because such ship
per has patronized any other carrier or
has died a complaint charging uniair
treatment, or for any other reason.
It Is forbidden to make any unfair or
unjustly discriminatory contract with, any
shipper based on the volume of freight
offered, or unfairly treat or unjustly dis
criminate against nijy shipper In the mat
ter of (a) cargo space accommodations or
other facilities, due regard being had for
tho proper loading of the vessel and the
available freight tonnage; (b) tho load
ing and landing of freight ln proper con
dition, or (o) the adjustment and settle
ment of claims.
Any carrier who violates any provision
of this section shall bo guilty of a misde
meanor, punishable by a fine of not more
than $26,000 for each offe-nse.
Alaska, Hawaii and Porto Jtlco are ex

MUSEUM HUNTER NEAIt DEATH
Dr.
Cnrl W. Bishop, Philadelphia,
Has Accident in Chinn
Dr. Can V Bishop, leader of the
University Museum's Chinese expedition,
nearly lost his life several months ago
when a small boat containing members of
the Philadelphia exploring party upset In
ft storm on the Yangtse River. The story
of the privations Doctor Bishop nnd his
fellow explorers underwent has reached
Philadelphia In letters to museum officials
announcing tho return of the expedition
to Tckln.
Doctor Bishop left this city 18 months
ago with a party of scientists to study
native Chlneso art In tho Inland provinces
After rcmnlnlng many months In tho In
terior, the party made an attempt to
reach Yunnan-fu over the mountains.
This attempt failed, and, led by Doctor
Bishop, tho explorers started down the
Yangtso River In small boats.
Tho boat bearing Doctor Bishop and
the most vntitablo of his specimens upset,
Hnd it not been for the heroism of a
Chlneso boy, who holped Doctor Bishop
to one of tho other boits, the explorer
would have drowned Furthermore, In the
Snow Mountnlns the party almost perished
