The North American Review for Jan
uary contains an article by Mr.. Louis
Windmuller Of New York, entitled
Substitutes For Ship Subsidies" Mr.
Windmuller approves the ayOwed OBJ
jects Of the ship subsidy bill. but en-
phaticalIy disappFUves of the bill it.
self, claiming that in its present shape
it will fail to accomplish them. The
subsidies for which it provides he
states, would chiefly accrue, for some
time to come, to American lines which
cross the Atlantic and Pacific for the
purpose Of carrying passengers and eN-
pensive freight What the country
really needs is carriage at reasonable
rates for the immense yield Of our agri-
culture and for the bulky products Of
our mines" This Is precisely the pur-
pose for which the pending subsidy bill
does not provide.
"We might try the experiment. sug-
gests Mr.. Wludmuller 'ot allowing
our merchants to buy ships where they
can get them on the most favorable
terms and offer them American regis
ters on condition that they engage in
transportation Of our foreign commerce,
when conducted by officers trained
I'm n United States naval reserve.
The privilege Of sailing foreign built
ships. commanded by American Off
GERS under our flag, would lead toward
n modification Of our autiQuated,
whilom British. navigation laws. These
statutes. by which British shipping
had been protected since Cromwelfs
time. were practically abandoned by
England in 1919. while we were her
formidable rival. British merchants
were then permitted To buy our ships
and sail them under their own dag.
while engaged in foreign commerce.
All other American nations have fol
lowed this example except the United
States, and the merchant marine OF all
other nations has increased while our
own has during that time diminished.
one OF the consequences has been that
American vessels, who have found il to
be for their interest 10 buy English
steamers, actually sail them under the
British dag-thus adding to the power
and prestige Of that country instead OF
their own. Germany, since Bismarcks
time the most ardent advocate Of pro-
lection. has no reason TO regret that she
uphOlds free trade In ships. The steam
tonnage Of her merchant marine has
increased 1000 per cent In 20 years,

That is to say, some 100000 is to be
paid by the government to keep ahoat
shipping already more than 20 years

charged off TO profit and loss. Indeed
the international itself, as soon as the
Paris is again in commission, would
draw S7JO,OOO on ships II and 13 years

Trust the President. There is
no danger that American rulers
will ever forget the traditions that
are bred into their bones"
Well, a dispatch from Manila
has just given us an opportunity
to see how far it is safe to trust
officials with arbitrary power.
General Macarthur has ordered
the banishment OF an editor as "a
dangerous incendiary and a men
ace to the military situation.
This man had committed the crime
Of alleging in print that Lieute nant
Commander William Brauners-
reuther, Captain OF the Port, had
charged excessive pilotage aud
mo rage fees and p0ck~teS3 fSsrt %

General Macarthur had the
charpes investigated BY his In
spector General, and, upon receiv-
ing report that they were un-
founded, summoned the editor to
his office and ordered him to
promise not to write any more such
arti les. The newspaper man in
sisted that his statements were
true. and refused to promise to
keep silence. Thereupon the Mill
taTy Governor, without trial, or

BY this procedure General M c.

which say:
The trisI Of all crimes except in cases

that if II were possible in this coun-
try for an official accused OF fraud

No sane man could ever wish to see
the Kruger regime in force again. The
policy of large armaments and narrow

African League the responsibility for

But the Beers are not fighting now for
the Dopper order oi things. Mr. Kruger
has gone, Mr., Steyn was no reactionary,
and both De Wet and Botha were oppo-
sition leaders. The Beers are simply
fighting for a sane measure OF self

reasonable security against the greed
Of the financierS, the racial prejudice OF
the Uitanders, and the ignorance OF
