Congressman Kahn delivered an in
teresting address this afternoon before
the Chamber of Commerce. He spoke
on the Merchant Marine of the Unit
ed States, and made an argument for
the retention of the coastwise laws,
as they Apply to the passenger service
between here and the Coast.
He said in part: In the early life
of the American Republic the Amer
ican flag was seen on every sea. The
clipper ships sent out from New Eng
land were the great promoters of trade
in the early part of the nineteenth
century, and up to the very beginning
of the Civil War the ships of the Unit
ed States maintained their prestige
throughout the world. The privateers
that were fitted ou in England by the
Confederate Government drove our
ships off the ocean, and we have never
been able to regain the lost ground.
We pay annually to the owners of
foreign built ships in the neighborhood
of $25O,OOO,OOO, for the carriage Of
American-made goods, to the goods Of
the world That sum is taken right
out of our circulation.
Americas Pathetic Marine Failure.
There are only nine American ships
of the first-class crossing the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans. 1t seems almost
pathetic that our country's flag flies
from so few mastheads. When the bat
tleship fleet of the United States made
its tour of the world few years ago
it was accompanied by large number
of colliers and provision carriers, all
of which carried foreign flags. In the
case of war am afraid that the Amer
lean battleship fleet would be of little
more value than coast defense YES
