The shipping board probably will announce a commandeering program within a Jew days. It will call for the requisitioning of ships under au thority recently given to the presi dent by congress and probably will inclTide arrangements for turning the vessels back to their owners for ac tual operation. The government, it is said, has no desire to operate the vessels itself, but through control of charters can direct trade routes and at the same time can lower ocean freight rates. .
