Gallinger, OF New Hampshire, address
ed the senate at length today in sup
port OF the ship subsidy measure or.
as its friends now call It, the ocean
mail bill. He made strong plea for
Legislation calculated to build up the

In the course of his address, Sen
ator Gallinger charged that South
American shipping trust exists, organ.
ICED by European capital, and that
this trust was actively engaged in try
ing to dominate ocean transportation
affecting South America. to the preju
dice and injury OF American shipping.
THE most smarting and humiliating
episode Of the entire year" said he,
is the revelation which the Pacific
cruise OF the great battleship feet Is
affording, that our merchant marine
Is now shrunk to such a skeleton that
Ii does not contain enough ocean-going
steam GOLFERS to provide the indis-
pensable fuel for the battleships on
their voyage from the American port
of Hampton Roads to the American
port of San Francisco"
Senator Gallinger said the respon'
sibility for this situation rested square
ly with congress, not with the presi-
dent, who had repeatedly urged aid to
the merchant marine.
