AGAINST A MERCHANT MARIE
Recent Action Must Show the Country
the. Extent Of Dictatorship
Of Wall Street.

Few things have SO opened the eyes
Of the country to the extent Of the
grip OF the Wall street dictatorship
on credit and industry In the United
States as the story Of how this cen
tralized money power has refused to
permit the organization OF a $4,000.
900 American steamship company or
allow an Independent American mer-
camille marine to be built in Ameri-
can shipbuilding yards. The general
comment Of papers over the country
Is that nothing can 80 foster the
growth Of Socialism as this revela-
ton of capitalistic control to the
extent that It can deny the people of
the country the natural advantages
Of their $375.000.000 investment in the
Panama canal.
The people have only vaguely grasp
ed the idea that no railroad can be
built except with the consent Of a
few men in Wall street. This new ex-
hibition OF the power Of the Dictator
ship jars the nation into a realization,
at last. that the great problem is to
curb this power. which ls now seen to
be great enough to challenge the gov
ernment itself by practically declar-
ing that there shall be no mail carry
Ing steamship company organized to
operate between American ports via
the canal on the terms which the gov.
ernment itself specifies. These terms
are that such mail carrying steam
ship line and Its directors. shall be
absolutely independent OF the great
trans-continental railway combination,
Likewise does this power serve mo-
tice Indirectly on the government that
no mall carrying company so organiz-
ed can get its ships built in American
yards. And this is the clique that has
been demanding that tho government
at Washington tax the people Of the
country to pay It to build ships to
give work to American laborers In
these yards. This strips the whole
ship subsidy propaganda OF it's last
mask. and it is exposed not as pro-
posal for benefitting the ship build
ers and their workmen. and ito put

On one occasion 1t was necessary

army had paid $5.25 ton for the
