Letters rom

THAT coAsTwIsE SHIPPING Law

Editor Advertiser:-Did you know that
Eva plantation is losing money? 1t looks,
too, as though the same thing were
true of Oahu, Hawaiian Commercial,
Pioneer, and some Of the other so-called
"gilt-edged d. concerns. Do you ask
how l know? Well, 1 can't say that
l really do know, but this argument
suggests itself: The mills of those
concarns are not grinding all the time!
Some Of them are deserted and still
from four to five months each year!
Looks as if there were something
wrong about that argument, but it is
certainly based on fact, and that ought
to be sufficient, ought it not9 The
papers have all said, three or four
times over, that the Alameda went
away Wednesday with fifteen (15)
empty stateroomS! And if that ism t
sufficient argument to prove that the
coastwise navigation laws ought not
to be suspended! what is2 And this,
too, in the season when very few tour
lists or business men leave for the
Coastl
Just see how it is on the Atlantic.
During the late spring, summer and
early fall months. all the transatlantic
boats are crowded; in fact, not room
enough for all, so that the companies
raise the rates; but in the winter there
is so little travel that many boats are
laid up for the season, and others cut
down the rates to really low figure :;
and still most Of the boats go only half
full or less. Don t you think that the
situation calls for relief measures 1t
seems to me that some sort of an inter
national arrangement ought to be made
whereby passengers should be fined If
they travel by any line, except, let us
say, by the Hamburg American. There
is reason in that. for this line | believe
has the largest tonnage of any in the
world. Of course such an arrangement
can not apply to the coaling port the
United States expects to buy of Moroc-
co. for, as that viii then be on the
American coast, the. coastwise naviga-
ton laws will apply; and as there ism It
any American line there, passengers
for all American ports can just walk
over to Alexandria, or some other North
African port, and take passage.
OF course We ought not to distrust
the present so-called protective naviga-
ton laws of the United States, for they
are building up the American merchant
marine so fast; as one can easily
demonstrate by an examination of sta
tistics.
i is just possible, | suppose, that one
cause Of the immense transatlantic
passenger traffic is the absence of any
restriction on travel. As this is the pref
~ nearly universal result of withdrawal
of restrictions and furnishing of I'M
limited accommodations, it seems to me
pretty likely that if people know they
can take any steamer coming along, it
! win not be long before the Alameda,
Korea. Siberia, China, Manchuria, Mon
goia, Hilonian, Lurline, and now the
beautiful and most tempting Wilhel-
nina, can t begin to carry all who want
| to travel, even after filing the Nippon,
Chiyo and Tenyo Marus.

the department of the ministry of the

on charge of high treason in connec-

The Socialists in their interpella-
