"MEN. AND RELIGION"

new YORK derdu. Like an dOapld.
ton o the Crusades of centuries ago,
is the Men and Religion Forward
Movement, now in progress in this
city, after campaign extending from
the Pacific to the Atlantic. Instead
of regaining the tomb of the founder
of the Christian church from the pos
session of the followers of another
to enlist men in the cause religion
not in foreign countries, but at home.
The leaders of the movement be-
from the churches and that tae
churches must change their methods
in order to win back the wanderers.
The attendance at the various meet
ings held thus far indicates that the
men are just as much interested in
religion as their forefathers were in
the times of the Crusades. The con-
tention Of the originators of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement that
if public religious exercises are made
attractive, interesting and profitable
the men will attend them seems to be
abundantly justified.
In brief, the movement seems to
prove that healthy, able bodied man
knows the difference between , a
dreary, uninteresting, slumber pro.
voking religious service and one that
has some of theft re and enthusiasm
of those presided over by the Found
49, .
er of their faith.

Had this latest expression of mer'
camille naval construction been sup
piled with fewer fol-de.rols, such az
gymnasiums, swimming tanks, and
others non.essentials to safety at sea,
more boats and life RATS could have
been carried, and every lie have been
saved under conditions that prevailed
when the Titanic received her death
blow.
Bismarck daily tribune., 1912-04-20

If an accident occurs in bad storm
at sea no boats, it is true, avail;
if a ship sinks quickly, boats nested
on an upper deck. like the dories OF
Gloucester fisherman will probably
20 down unused. Dut in three great
accidents that quickly come to mind
the sinking of the Oregon, the Re-
public and the Titanic-there was
time to save all. There were no lives
lost on the Oregon or the Republic,
because rescuing ships arrived in
time; had they not come, hundreds
must have perished then as they did
on the Titanic. Yet none of these dis
asters carried single lesson to the
builders and owners of these steam
ships. And our country has connived
their neglect.
There can be no question of the
ability of ship to carry boats enough
even when she takes four thousand
people to sea. If it is matter OF
weights, then let the companies cut
out the elevators, the swimming
tanks, the gymnasiums, some OF the
other hundred and one luxuries. AS
a matter of act, the development OF
the small boat has been practically
neglected. The genius of ship con.
structors has been turned in the d.
rection of providing comforts primar-
ily. We do not know of single large
liner that carries a well equipped
gasoline launch; there is no reason
why there should not be dozen OF
them. There are quick launching
davits that never fail to get boat
overheard promptly even under mod.
erately stormy conditions-one of
these devices worked successfully for
years on Col. John Jacob Aster's
yacht-but the steamship companies
have never been able to interest them
selves in this device. Even if it is
necessary that every boat should be
kept on davits, ship that has eleven
enough, one over another. In short,
it is ridiculous to say that all the
ability that goes into the making OF
such ship as the Titanic could not
solve every problem in connection
with the small boats. The RESPONSE
bility rests squarely upon the COM
panies and the American inspectors.
Why the English board of trade neg
lects this matter we do not know,
but it is only necessary to recall how
many years it took to establish Plim-
soils mark, to understand that even
in England progress is slow. and Of
ten after the loss of much human life
This terrible and unnecessary sac
rifice of human beings on the Titanic
should put an end to this state Of
affairs on both sides of the Atlantic.
In this country We believe that there
will be as intense feeling in this mat
ter as there was in regard to are
appliances after the Slocum disaster:
The question of cost cannot enter in;
no steamer owner can claim that it is
an unjust burden to provide seat
in a life boat for every man and wo'
man who gets to sea in his craft.
The matter is now squarely up to
the secretary of the department of
commerce and labor and the head
of the steamboat inspection service.
And what steamship line, German,
French, American, or English, will be
the first to bid for public favor by
voluntarily equipping its ships prop
erly so as to be able to save every.
body when a ship sinks in quiet sea
In any case, let us have monument
to the dead of the Titanic in the en-.
focement of the law.
