However, there are still no decisions in sight. This afternoon the delegates will confer with Sir Edward Beatty, chairman of the Canadian Pacific Company. One of the major difficulties of the momeut is that substantially higher expenditure ,would be involved in building new ships, compared with ■ the original estimates, at’ a result of increased ship-building costs. The difficulty also remains of reconciling the figures of shipping companies and those of Government experts.
