FREE SHIPS A REMEDY.
Our Merchant Marine Suffering from
Restrictive Legislation.

From The New Orleans picayune
Free ships is really the only solution
OF the merchant marine problem. The
subsidizing of few lines OF passenger
ships will not build up a respectable mer-
chant marine, but the throwing down OF
the protection bars, whereby a few ship
building firms only are protected at the
expense of the rest Of the country. would
enable millions Of dollars OF American
capital to seek investment in shipping
wherever It can be purchased cheapest,
and protect such tonnage with the Ameri-
can flag. There IS no lack Of American
owned tonnage at the present time. but
all of il that is now engaged in the for
eign trade with but insignificant eXcep-
tons. is under foreign flags Why should
not the Americans who own these foreign
built ships have the right TO use the
American nag on their property. and
control that property so that it will be-
come profitable, just as similar property
is operated and controlled by foreigners?
The whole idea OF subsidies is repuS-
nant to American institutions The great
mass of the taxpayers must not be taxed
10 benefit a few ship owners. If AmeTi-
can ships cannot capture a share Of the
worlds carrying trade without subsidies.
they are not entitled 20 any part Of it.

MATCH STORY WITH MORAL
Why Children Should Not NEEDLE
with dangerous Things.


prom the a. AeacEa.-
The following fable for children IS
condensed by Ohio's fire marshal from
one Tor which the British fire prevention
committee recently awarded prize to
Mr.. Bengough. a Canadian.
on the shelf Of "a dark cupboard there
once lived a large family Of matches.
They were very happy together in the
same box They had made friends with
a little mouse, "a rat. and great black
beetle. These three came to the cup
board every day 20 search for food, and
sometimes they all gathered together
to tell each other stories OF to chat.
Their talk vus almost always about
children.
one day when they were congregated
together the biggest match in the box
spoke out his mind.
Il hate children he declared 7
should like To burn every one Of them"
on" exclaimed the mouse. the rat,
and the beetle. "Oh, what 4 bad thing
TO say" And they all trod upon one
another's toes as they shrank TO the
back of the shelves. trying TO get as
far as possible from that wicked match.
But" exclaimed master rat, why do
you hate children? Children are very
nice when they are good"
That's just it, exclaimed the big
match; when are they good? Are they
good when they make playthings Of US?
Are they good when they rub our heads
against the wall just 10 make us blaze
up and rage No, TO; it is because
children are bad and disobedient that
that we hate them. IF they interfered
with you as they do with us, you would
hate them. too. Master rat have chill
dren ever rubbed your head against the
wau?"
I should just like TO see them" replied
the rat. Indignantly. They run away
screaming when I'm about. Not that
there is any reason for them 10 be much
afraid! I should never touch them if
they let me alone.
All" exclaimed all the matches to-
gether. II they let you alone! Don't
you see that is the point? II they let us
alone. We might like them. too
You are merciless creatures said
Master Rat Il should advise children to
keep away from YOU, I wonder though,
that they are not frightened by your loud
cracking voices and your horrible smell %
Yes. we are merciless" retorted the
Big Match
'Wretchesi" cried Mr. Beetle Il must
tell the poor children how you are schem-
ing to hurt and kill them. They think
you pretty harmless toys
All this time Master Rat had stood by

THEORY VERSUS HUMANITY.
An Issue Involved in Federal Regu-
Inti0n of Child Labor.

From tie Portland Oregonau.
1t is only fair to concede that some
persons who are opposed to the Federal
regulation OF child labor are animated
by genuine constitutional scruples. There
are people in the world who prefer the
integrity of a theory to any other good
The5 would sacrifice the happiness OF the
entire human race rather than violate the
sanctity Of their beloved distractions
Such people exist and they are among
the most determined foes Of Mr.. Bev-
eridge's bill; but the great majority OF
those who oppose the regulation of child
labor are animated simply and solely by
greed.
BY employing young children at work
which ruins their bodies and debauches
their morals these men can make more
profit than they could II they employed
adult labor; hence they employ children
and oppose all legislation which would
hinder them. For their own offspring
they provide nutritious food, capable
teachers, hygienic surroundings. and
games in the open air: but FOR all these
things they pay. in part at least, by
herding into their mills day aftsT day a
miserable drove Of gaunt, hOll"Eg-eyed,
starving boys and girls. and working
them TO the last limit OF exhaustion
