THE NEW SHIP SUBSIDY BILL

could be impressed for transports
in case of war.
Secretary Root called attention
to the fact that practically all 9th.
er commercial nations are now pay
ing subsidies to their merchant
marine. England pays between
$6,OO0,0OO and 100000 a year,
and has paid since she began the
practice in 1910 100000, 000.
France is paying 100000 a year
in subsidies, Italy and Japan s.
100000 a year and $4,000,000 each;
Germany almost in total as Eng
land, while Norway, AustriaHun'
gary and Canada all pay subsidies.
The consequence is that there is
practically no American merchant
marine. While in South America,
Secretary Root says he saw the
flag of every nation in the world
except his own at the mastheads
of ships lying in South American
ports.
1t is claimed by those who favor
the ship subsidy bill now pending
in the house that the moment it is
passed orders will be placed with
American shipbuilders for rs new
American steamships of 100000
tons gross register, to cost 100000
600, on the Atlantic coast alone"

PIONEER WOMAN
OF SPOKANE DEAD

Mrs. Louise NJ. Kellogg, a prom
inent real estate woman of this
city, died yesterday morning of
pneumonia at her home E1106
Second av. Funeral services will
be held Wednesday morning from
the parlors of the Turnbull Under
taking Co. and interment will be in
Paramount. Rev. Henry l. Rasmus
will officiate.
Mrs. Kellogg is survived by her
husband, three children and two
sisters.
Mrs. Kellogg, through judicious
investment in real estate and
ranch property before the big fire
amassed a fortune of s125, 700. She
was pauperiZed by the confagra-
ton, but continued her invest
ments when the city once more
built up, and at the time of he'll
death was rated as wealthy. She
was born in Michigan in 1899. Al
the age of IS she married Peter
Gibson. Mr.. ellison died in 1875
Eight years later she married L
E. Kellogg, then owner of news
paper at Cheney, Wash. They
separated II years ago. She was
member of the Spokane Pioneers
association.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1906-12-03

In addition it is provided that, in
the above cases, the service and
subsidy may be doubled.
If all these lines were establish
ed. and the total of the subsidies,
for the minimum service, would be
$1,70S,O00. If the service were
made twice as frequent, the sub
sides would come to s3,416,000.
In addition to the above, the bill
provides general bounties for
freight vessels engaged in trade
between the United States and for
eign ports, these bounties to be
based on the gross tonnage of the
vessel. Thus the law would sub
sidize steam vessels of more than
1000 gross tons, or a sail vessel of
over 200 gross tons, or a fishin:
vessel of over 20 gross tons, of
American register.
In addition the same bill pro
vkles for the enrolment of a naval
reserve, consisting of officers and
men now employed in the mer-
chant marine and fisheries of tie
United States, on the ocean and
great lakes, such officers and non

MARRIED MEN LET WIVES

Editor Press-WOmen employed
in laundries in this city are not
slaves so far as my experience
goes. l have worked in laundries
for a number of years and find 1t
is not any harder than other
physical labor. Work is work,
physical or brain. In regard to
overtime | can only speak for the
laundry l work in, where we have
only worked overtime in four in
stances in the past four years. Con-
corning wages, $1.30 to So per day
is paid. We commence work at Z
a. m. and quit at $50, with half
an hour for lunch.
And now in regard to that
union: We organized a union five
years ago. We had a large mem
bership, but we had traitors, and
teh traitors were men. We lost
our charter, a disgrace to the
laundry workers. OF all the women
that belonged to that union none
has any desire to belong to an
other, for human nature has not
changed since. We women expect
an increase in wages soon on &C
count of the advance in the cost
Of living. We must have 1t in or
der to live.
Women laundry workers do not
want the sympathy of the mouse
keeper, for she certainly gives her
servant girl all the work due her.
After $3.50 p. m. and all day Sun
day is our own time. When we
are resting the servant girl is hard
at work. A number of women in
Sc laundries have done more or
less house work. They all prefer
the laundry.
A county official says our bur
dens should be lightened, but does
not know just how it could be
done. If this county official and
other men who have plenty OF
means would encourage married
men to keep their wives at home
and not permit them to work il
laundries, department stores and
other places where women are EN-
ployed, they could find a way tc
help the woman who has to work
IN SunnOrt her family
