the lower branch will touch It, The
house committee is SO constituted that
it will not report favorably upon such
a measure as was framed in the SEN
ate. With this committee, the speaker

tain number of republicans against it
there was no show whatever 1t is
understood that Speaker Cannon and
the committee will favor q subsidy for
lines Of ships from New York to Rio
and Buenos Ayres. from New Orleans
to Venezuela and Colon, and from San
Francisco to Panama. 1t will be con-
cluded from the points these lines are
to touch that Secretary Roots mes
sage brought back from South Amer.
lea has had its influence upon congress
and the nation, for much of the oppo-
sition has weakened in facing the
proposition to give aid to steamship
lines flying the American flag between
North American and South American
cities.
The influence .exerted by President
Roosevelt. Secretary Shaw. and Secre-
| tary Root in favor of extending Amer
lean trade by encouraging American
steamship lines is being felt in the
middle west states where the opposi-
ton few years ago seemed impossi-
| BILE to overcome The converting of
the people of Indiana, Illinois and
Iowa and their neighbors to such a
proposition is not only possibility,
but 1t now seems a probability
Merchant marine laws are like most
other laws; they can be made with
good results or with bad results. Be.
cause it is subsidy law, it is not ne
cessarily bad law. Because it is a
law promoting and encouraging mer-
chant marine, it is not necessarily a
good law 1t is apparent that none
but the right kind Of law can mus.
ter enough votes in the present con
gress for passage. When there is an
overwhelming demand on the part OF
the people for a law pertaining to
some particular thing, there is great
er possibility OF getting a poor law
For instance. there was great cry
for railway legislation when the Esch.
! Townsend law was submitted. Had
that been passed the congress would
have returned and said to the people
I'VE passed your railway law" for
they would have been able to say that
1 However. better judgment prevailed
and the delay produced what Is now
accepted as a better piece of legisla
4 ton. 1t is plain that the demand fol
a law encouraging merchant marine
i service comes from the statesmen and
not from the people. Hence the repre-
i sentatives of the people will not act
unless they can go back to their con
j stituents and assure them that the law
passed is good one and have time
bear them out in their statements.
i There has been prevailing opinion
that the subsidy law was what is com
4 monty known around state legislatures
4 as doodle" law. 1t is probable thai
such an one could be framed. But the
!. confidence of the people in president
Roosevelt will probably lead them tt
\ believe with him that a beneficial mer
chant marine law is possibility ant
that none other will pass him.

CHANCE FOR MERCHANT MARINE

Latest reports from Washington up
on the adjournment of the congress
are to the effect that the chances of
an enactment giving aid to a merchant
marine are niue better than they
were a few months ago. There is now
a possibility of law that will start
American steamers to southern ports,
the hope being to build up an A1neri-
can trade.
The measure passed, If it is passed,
will not be the one in the senate,
which is constructed along the lines
of fuiEtiedged ship subsidy bill The
house of representatives will not ac-
cept it. The movement must be slow
er and direct benefit to the country
rather than individuals in sight before

CEMENT USERS MEET.
Annual Session of Association at Iowa
State College.


At a recent meeting of the officers
of the Iowa Association of Cement Us
ers in Des MONIES, it was decided to
hold the third annual convention at the
iowa State college the last week of
January. 1t is believed this will be an
especially satisfactory date for the
meeting, following as it does the ma
tional convention in Chicago and the
Northwestern in Minneapolis.
Strong effort is now being made to
arrange q program and for special fea-
lures that will be ahead of anything
attempted in preceding years. The uses
of cement are becoming more and more
varied and the numerous phases will
be presented in discussions and in pa
pers by specialists along the different
lines.
AS in former years, the exhibits of
cements, cement products and cement
using machinery will be a feature of
the meeting. Space for such exhibits
is to be provided without charge in
the convention hall. Exhibitors who
wish to operate their machines will he
allotted suitable space in the new Col
lege forge shop located near the con-
vention building.
1t is planned to have prepared a
series of standard sands with which
those in actual use may be compared
Those amending the convention are
urged to bring samples of both the
raw materials and finished products
for comparison and display.
Practical methods of testing the set
ting of cemcnts, breaking strength and
other properties will likewise be DEM
onstrated al the convention.
1t is the aim of the executive COM
mittee to plant this winters meeting
SO as to include features of interest
to engineers, architects. contractors
sidewalk men, as well as manufacturers
of cement goods. cement using machin-
cry and of cement itself.
