Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the methods practiced by foreign shipping companies that control 94% of US exports and imports. Shipping rings dictate the prices for both goods and passengers, pool their profits, and drive out any competition. The author argues that these activities violate US commercial treaties and anti-trust laws and may even jeopardize national security due to the involvement of foreign governments and their naval auxiliaries. The book also alleges that these companies give special privileges and secret rebates to preferred shippers, particularly large corporations like Standard Oil and US Steel. Through an analysis of legal documents, testimony, and historical context, this book highlights the urgent need for an investigation into these practices and the potential implications for US commerce and national security.
