Allied Maritime Transport Council
- Allied Maritime Transport Council
The Allied Maritime Transport Council was an international agency created during World War I to coordinate shipping between the allied powers of France, Italy, Great Britain, and the United States. The council was formed at a conference in Paris in November 1917, with each nation appointing its respective minister in charge of shipping to the council. The representatives were:
*Robert Cecil and James Maclay for Great Britain;
*Étienne Clémentel and Louis Loucheur for France;
*Giovanni Villa and Silvio Crespi for Italy; and
*Raymond B. Stevens and George Rublee for the United States
British Civil Servant Arthur Salter was appointed secretary the council.
The council existed until March 1919, when it was merged with the Supreme Economic Council.
