Too Busy TO Save Life

The Washington Post observes
that aftqr the Titanic went down
there wats tremendous display OF
energy by Congress, with a view
to safeguarding the lives OF those
at sea. The temper of The peoples
representatives was aroused to
savage pitch. It appeared that the
only danger was That steamship
companies might be clinched by too
drastic legislation. -
More than three months have
passed and Congress is about to ad-
journ. Nothing whatever has been
done in behalf Of humanity at sea,
excepting provision requiring two
wireless operators to be carried on
every vessel. Congress has not pro
vided for extra lifeboats or RATS
1t has not passed the seaman's, bill,
which aboHshes involuntary servi-
tude-a relic of barbarism; it has
not provided for adequate crows for
vessels and lifeboats; it has not pro-
vided for the proper number of Of
ficers and regulated their hours; it
has done. nothing but hold hearings
and introduce bills.
So far as Congress is concerned,
a Titanic could be lost every day
without mourning any penalty what
ever for the loss of passengers and
crews. WHAT'S the loss of life at
sea compared with the possible loss
of votes, which might occur if Con-
gress did not do politics. The saw
ing of life is everybody's duty, and
therefore nobody's; but the saving
of his party is the. duty of every man
in Congress. If the public will trav-
ell in ships, let it do so at it's own
risk. Congress is too busy saving
the country to bother about saving
the people.
