	1938: Merchant Marine, American - Archive Article - MSN Encarta
		Because of the dangerously inferior condition of the American merchant marine at the time that legislation was passed, a large and immediate construction program was necessary to replace tonnage which presently would be obsolete.
		The problem common to all operators of replacing any of their American vessels bought during post-war bargain sales, is complicated in the domestic trade by the higher degree of obsolescence and the exclusion of this fleet from the subsidy provisions available to ships engaged in the overseas or foreign services.
		This line, formerly the Dollar Steamship Company, was renamed the American President Lines, and with the installation of new management, the company's regular round-the-world service was resumed.

	American Export Lines Inc.
		American Export Lines, New York, was the biggest US-flag shipping company between the US east coast and the Mediterranean from 1919 to 1977, offering both cargo ship services and passenger ship services, until declaring bankruptcy and was acquired by Farrell Lines, New York.
		Hitherto, the American Export ships had carried a maximum of 12 passengers, and as an indication of their new policy two of the existing fleet, the EXARCH and EXCELSIOR, were converted to carry 37 passengers, all in outside cabins on the bridge deck.
		The American Export Lines were acquired on 28 March 1978 by FARRELL LINES INC of New York, a line dating back to 1926 and running services from East and Gulf Coasts of the USA to West, South and East Africa and to Australia and New Zealand.

	American President (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Complicating that dichotomy was Bush’s insistence that he not govern as a minority President: Just as President Clinton had done eight years before, he rammed through his tax bill with hardly any support from the opposite side of the aisle.
		But the President, expressing certainty that Iraq was hiding evidence and convinced that replacing the repressive and violent Baathist regime with a democracy would have positive and far-reaching implications throughout the Middle East, took the nation to war.
		In less than six weeks, American troops were in control of Baghdad, early concerns about massive civilian casualties were unrealized, and Iraqi troops had been killed, had surrendered, or had melted back into the general population.

	IRAN’S PRESIDENT SPEAKS
		The Iranian president expressed dismay that his recent extended letter to President Bush asking for an opening of dialogue, followed by an offer to publicly debate the American leader before the United Nations, has gone unanswered.
		In addition, although it is not widely reported by the American media—which portrays Iran feverishly working to build “the Islamic bomb”—the fact is, as noted by Ahmadinejad, Iran’s supreme Muslim religious leader actually issued an edict, known as a “fatwa,” prohibiting Iran’s building of a nuclear weapon.
		But after I was elected president of Iran, some 200 journalists from all over the world visited a small village where I lived for a very brief period as a small child and interviewed everybody they could find: the baker, the man who tended the fruit stand, all of the neighbors.
