It owns and etttrates tha dtandmavian-Arrierican Line which has regular passenger and freight services from New Vfk and ether American ports te Copenhagen. It also maintains important routes from Copen hagen te most of the leading ports of Europe, Argentina and North Africa. The company has a fleet of IIS vessels including two large Diesel meter ships in addition te 100 barges and lighters. This fleet aggregates 208,000 gross tens (British measurement) and the total funded debt, if calcu. lated igainst tha fleet alone without reference te decks, real estate and ether assets, would figure at only $25 per gross teri. The conspicuous strength of the United Steamship Ce. at the present time is duel in considerable degree te the excellent adaptation of its fleet te the local services between ports in and adjacent te the Baltic and between the Baltic and the Mediterranean; services requir ing small bbits of special types and largely non-competitive with the excess tonnage launched dur ing the wr period. t)Sbt These bends together with a small issue of debentures maturing in 1926 and certain real estate mettgages constitute the sole funded debt of the company. All the vessels owned by the com pany are entirely free from mortgage lien, and the company agrees that no mortgage shall be created as long as any df the present issue of bends are outstanding.
