MERCANTILE MARINE.
LORD BRASSEY’S OPINION,
By Telograph—Press Association—Copyrighi
London, June 20. Lord Brassey was a witness before the Subsidies Committeo. He did not favor subsidies to increase profits, but said it was desirable for the public advantage if the Cunard Company were unable to hold their own without assistance that the Government should help patriotically. If the American Subsidies Bill were adopted compelling the Cunard Company to seek fresh capital Great Britain ought to assist. If no British subsidies were arranged British sailing ships would entirely disappear.
