European Ports Added

To Mooremack Run

The Maritime Subsidy Board has approved the request of Moore-McCormack Lines to in- clude German and French ports on its sub- sidized service between the U.S. North At- lantic and North Europe and Scandanavian countries.

Moore-McCormack is authorized to make 54 to 66 sailings a year on the service and calls at continental ports may be made on no more than 56 voyages each way annually, the board said.

The new Moore-McCormack replacement ships of the C-5 design were deemed by MSB suitable for this essential trade route.
