measure proposed to do and his dificulty
had not diminished as the debate had pro-
ceeded. He had been told that this was q
better bill than that of last year. While
that might be so, he suggested 1t was open
TO objection. The Measure in Its operation,
ought to have an end as we'll as beginning,
yet It provided no limitation to the time
the contracts made under 1t should be en-
forced.
He gave notice, therefore, Of an amend
ment, providing that under the bill the
postmaster general should not make con-
tracts after July 1, 1910 and that the con-
tract should not extend beyond July 1, 1920.
He gave notice OF another amendment he
proposed to OFFER providing that no vessels
should be entitled to full compensation un-
der the act unless they shall have cleared
from a port Of the United States with at
least fifty per cent of their cargo capacity
and that the subsidy paid such vessels
should be reduced in proportion to the re-
duction OF the cargo below fifty per cent
Of their capacity.
would Limit Aggregate Subsidy.
Mr.. Allison believed also that there
ought to be a limitation upon the aggre-
gate amount OF subsidy to be paid annu-
ally under the bill.
Continuing Mr.. Allison expressed the
conviction that the aggregate amount to
be expended under the bill should be linn
tied and he suggested an amendment linn
iting the amount OF mail pay under the
bill for each year until 1907 to s., 1000. 600
annually and after that date to $4,000, 900,

that by next October election time), the
public would be told that the amount would

WINNIPEG. March 15.-The snowstorm
which began yesterday continued today and
tonight Winnipeg is practically snowbound.
1t is the worst blizzard ever experienced
here. and coming. as It did, after two
months Of almost summerlike weather, its
effect is severely felt.
No trains had reached the city up to a late
hour tonight. The Great Northern express
Is stalled near the boundary line, the North
ern Pacific train is six hours late and the
Canadian Pacific t-ranscontinental trains are
long overdue. The storm is widespread in
its area, extending from Regina in the west
to Port Arthur in the east. Street car
trafic, which was kept up in an intermittent
fashion during the day, was entirely sus-

"Tha will be a notice to all the world"
said he, that this subsidy is entirely in
the hands of congress and that 1t Ia not a
foundation upon which to build largely. We
ought to do this thing right or not do It

The senate then at $50 D.. n. vent into

Minority ON Ship Subsidy.
Senator Berry. representing the minority
OF the senate committee on commerce., today
presented the report in opposition to the
pending ship subsidy bill. Most of the
points have been covered in speeches in the
senate. The minority denies the accuracy
of both the predictions and the facts in
the majority report. They urge that the
bill is wrong in principle and declare that
1t will utterly fail in the accomplishment
Of its professed objects. They also say that
while II Is not SO complicated as the sub
sidy bill Of the Fifty-sixth congress, 1t is
In some respects even more Objectionable.
The minority continues;
The bill proposes to tax the whole people
10 the extent Of several millions for the
DenenI OF one single Industry. Besides the
statistics OF the last two years prove that
the shipbuilding industry does not need
such special assistance, but is rapidly in
creasing under natural conditions.
They c~riticise the feature Of the bill
which carries the subsidy for foreign mails
and say:
The highest rate of subsidy Is given 70
~twenty-knot vessels. while the fast ocean
mails are really carried In t~Wenty-three
and twenty-four knot vessels. The mali
compensation TO the slow American ves-
sells. already too high. Is made immensely
higher by this bill. We pay more for a
weekly service than England pays for a
semt-weekiy service by much faster ships
than ours.
They further urge that the bill makes no
provision against q shipping trust and
claim that 1t encourages a combination
leading to such a trust. They also say:
The lines might also merge with foreign
lines 20 control freight and passenger rates.
partners Of our subsidized vessels.
The report closes by saying:
We know that there are hundreds and
thousands of Industries in our country
doing a losing business, but we deny that
congress, for this reason, can go into the
public reasury and save them from bank
the hard s~truggles OF life, but II Is not the
duty of our government to interfere in the
private business Affairs OF the citizen. We
believe that all men should have an equal
and fair chance In the race for wealth
and happiness-every citizen should bear
his share OF the burdens Of the govern
ment, one. class should never be the re-
cipient OF benefits not given 10 others. Alb
solute equality of rights is a doctrine we
should never abandon. The bill Is wrong
