Admiral George Dewey, comment
ing on the Titanic horror, the veteran
naval authority said: Il think that
every passenger who crosses the
Northern Atlantic takes his life in
his hands every time. The greed for
moneymaking is so great that human
lives are never taken into considera-
ton in the risks necessary to follow
ing this shorter but dangerous route.
Is there any need of more striking
example of the necessity Of legisla-
ton to compel ocean liners to make
adequate arrangements for safeguard
ing the lives of passengers in the
event of such an accident as has cost
so many lives in the Titanic disas-
ter?"
