Mr.. Mckinley, in his message to
Congress, says: 81 am satisfied the
judgment of the country favors sc
policy of aid to our merchant marine"
Undoubtedly; but it does not favor
a subsidy steal for the benefit of a few
existing companies and individuals,
which would be of no aid at all, save
concerned. Such a subsidy would not
cause the building of a single ship.
Governmental aid of a vastly better
and less costly nature can be given in
another and different way.

Viceroy Chan Chi 1ung, who has pub
