WASHINGTON, D. c.. November IL
Senator Martin. chairman OF the SUBJ
committee OF the Congressional Commits
sion on Merchant Marine. has notified the
members of the subcommittee that there
Will be meeting In Galveston to-mor-
row. The commission Is Investigating
the causes Of the decline OF the merchant
marine Of this country. and has visited
several cities OF. the East and heard q
number of men who arc Interested In
shipbuiIding and seafarng discuss the
subject The subcommittee will visit
Newport News. Savannah. Mobile Pensa-
cola, New Orleans and Galveston. Tho
dates OF the visits of the committee to
the various cities named have not been
announced.
Z Three methods have been suggested for
the relief OF tho merchant marine inter-
ests Of the country. One is tho enact
ment OF a law for the subsidising OF
American owned ships. as was proposed
by the Frye and the Hanna bills. the
modification OF navigation laws, by which
Americans may purchase foreign built
ships and give them American regis
try. and, finally. laws providing that
goods brought to this country in AmcrI-
can owned ships shall either pay no
tariff duties or shall pay less duties than
are paid on goods imported in foreign
owned ships. Y, B d
The latter was practiced by the Eng
llsh several hundred year. ago. and the
greatness OF the maritime interests OF
that nation arc attributed largely to this
policy. 1t was discussed very fully by
Mr.. Bedford counse OF the Newport
News Sltpbu!ldlng and Dry-dock Com
pany.2 In a paper read before the Vir-
ginia Bar Associat ton at Hot Springs last
summer. The paper made a deep impress
sion on those WHIP heard 1t, and caused
at least one gentleman to express the
opinion that discriminating duties was
the solution OF the problem of the restor-
alton of American merchant marine to
its former glory.

indicted twenty-five Of the rccalcitrant
citizens OF Tangier Island who rose IN

oyster navy last August. and prevented
the States officers from making survey
OF oyster ground.
Tho State Board OF Fisheries, on appli-

Of the Inhabitants were dependent for a

as a man remained alive on the island
would they give up tho land. The sur
veyor began his work, but as fast as q
stake would be set II would BIO pulled up
again amid cheers and howls OF defiance.
They claimed that The ground for CEN
and that their. bread and clothes, and even
their lives, were at stake. The chairman,
after trying 10 persuade and using every

away
About three weeks later the chairman
