possibilities of profit. The foreigner is
not going 10 take cargo from our shores
10 other shores and to bring alien freight
from other lands to our ports as a sacri-
ficing expedient Just to keep his shipping
af.oat when the trade OF his own country
does not warrant his being in the bust

build expensive ihips for this service and
to keep on improving them and to add to
his OUTLAWS unless the trade IS well worth
the while. At any figure you choose TO
adopt more than S3Ooo,0oo.0O0 worth of

murderous cutting OF rates merely TO

ENeLANo's AoRolT DIPLOMACY.

Is any one likely to deny that British
power is In fact based upon her grip upon
the commerce of the seas? The good peo-
pie of the United Kingdom, with reason,
have recognized this for centuries, and
the British diplomatst has lost no oppor-
tunity to further this phase of national
strength, injecting into treaty after treaty
provisions which would favor the COM
mercial cause of the English flag, and,
not infrequently, this has been done so
adroitly that it's purport was not grasped
until the instrument was completed
agreement.
This occurred disastr0usly in 1915, after
We had won eleven out of thirteen fights
upon the sea-won them because of the
merchant craft which had made us COM
mercially strong; won them because Of the
seamen thus trained. and were vctors be-
cause Of the shipbuilding art which had
flourished through wise encouragement
upon our shores Our statesmen erred
again in 1924; once more in ISIS, and
through these errors British shipping has
been steadily gaining over our own ever
since. The Clayton Bulwer Treaty OF 1850
was another example of the manner In
which We managed TO make o mess of a
diplomatic situation, and some of the
problems of the Panama Canal are to-day
emphasizing the weakness OF our diplom-
( acy sixty-two years ago.
There is another side 10 this question of
foreign commerce apart from the lmme-
date advantage accruing TO the owners
OF the ship that carries the freight. That
cargo Is taken from port to port, usually
at Il profit, goes without saying, but there
are other prOits and other considerations
/ lying back of this in which the nation OF
the shipowner is very much concerned.
, The advertising value OF the flag gives to
the business agencies OF that country an
advantage abroad which rivals find diff
cult TO overcome il ships of their countries
are not engaged In that traffic. In other
words, IL is duplication of the advertis-
ing value of merchants delivery wagon.

KEEPING A RESERVE WAR FORCE.

The commercial aspect OF this question
has still other phases. Many OF the finest
Of England's ships trading 10 and from
her home ports with the Orient, via the
Suez Canal, have the canal dues paid by
the government, either directly or indi-
rectly by some form of bounty or Ad-
miralty subvention. This means annually
a very heavy tax, and yet II Is paid 10

not want TO have to do this in the case

ton, no one cen blame her for this stand,
because freedom for our own vessels, II
OF American origin, would place the Ems
lish craft at a disadvantage to just that
extent. and might even be the means OF
fostering a fieet OF our own which would
take from British vessels thousands Of
tons of freight which they now haul.
But this substantial encouragement nom
the British government toward her mer-
chant marine is not alone for trade pro-
motion-important as that object is.
Most OF the ships that are the re-
cipients OF governmental bounty are
designed TO Ice OF service to the British
flag in time OF strife. We know Just
