Cost Of Neglecting Our
Merchant Marine
More Than 100000 Is Paid
Each Day to Foreigners
Building and Operating For
eign Ships to Carry the Trade
of Our Country, He Says.
By John TEMPLE GRAVES

American Steamship Company
admits a net profit of more than
10 per cent upon a capitalization
of approximately s1O0000,00O. In
fact the real net earning of the
Hamburg company is said to be
nearer to 20 per cent annually.
This tremendous profit is chiefly
levied upon American commerce.
Opposition to America.
Not only are all freight and
passenger rates from this country
to foreign ports fixed by agree
ment by these foreign combines,
but these conferences constant
ly discriminate against American
commerce in all competitive mar
kets.
Take South America for illus
tration. The American shipper
pays exactly the same rate from
this country to South America
on slow and Anticipated ships rum
ming at irregular intervals that
his European rival pays on fast
modern vessels running on regu-
lar schedule. Now and then the
European shipper by secret ar
rangement secures an advantage.
Not only this, but the European
ebippar &c erf1ya, az ;v,v,apea I'd
vantage in promptness of deliv-
cry.
Under no circumstances will
these foreign steamship combines
permit an advantage to tn
American shipper.
To illustrates: Brazil prefers
our flour. She gave us an advan-
tage of 80 per cent over the other
nations of the world in flour.
Immediately these foreign ship
ping pools increased the freight
rate on flour to just that extent.
Again we were given an advan-
tage of 20 per cent on cement.
Immediately the freight rates
between this country and South
America on cement were in
creased over Europe until the
European manufacturer con-
trolled the market.
Deadly Tactics.
These are the deadly tactics
followed by these foreign steam
ship lines in respect to every
competitive article in which our
country's products might have
an equal chance with foreign
products. And all the while we
go on pouring our millions of
servile tribute into the laps of
the foreigners that rob us.
Every fact stated above as to
the attitude of these foreign
steamship combines has been
testified to under oath by the
agents and representatives CT
these combines in the recent
Congressional investigation.
These combines state boldly
that they monopolize our trade,
that they fix our freight and pas
senger rates by agreement and
that these rates are made in Eu-
rope They further acknowledge
that they are violating our anti
trust laws and that they intend
to continue to violate theml
Yet because they are foreign
companies we submit to this ex-
tortion and defiance of our laws
with an indifference and compla-
cency that is cowardly and
shameful.
In the pending tariff bill an at
tempt was made to at least ex-
press our right to favor our own
ships. It is simply inconceiv-
able that an American Congress
should have been deferred by
any sort of influence from doing
this and doing more!

TT is estimated that for the fls-
cal year ending June 80 the
exports of the United States
will reach the enormous figure Of
s2,400,000,000, and that the ball
ance of trade in our favor will
approximate 1915, 900, OOO-a sum
never before equaled upon the
balance sheet of nations.
These figures are a tribute to
our national greatness and pros
perity. They carry also a serious
reflection upon our national en-
terprise and a distinct humilia-
ton to our national pride.
For of all this mighty COM
merce overseas less than per
cent was transported under the
American flag. This magnificent
balance of our trade is almost cut
in two by the enormous sums we
pay to foreign ships to carry our
own products to the markets of
the world
More than s750,OO0,OGO Of for
eign capital is to-day invested in
foreign yards building ships to
transport the commerce we fur
nish.
MORE THAN 100000 is
PAf ,ACH DAY TO FOREIGN
ERE -EjILDING AND OPERAT-
ING FOREIGN SHIPS TO CAR
RY THE TRADE OF OUR
COUNTRY. OF THIS 100000
DAILY PAID 90 PER CENT
GOES TO FOREIGN LABOR.
This 100000 each day should
be given to the American labor
er and kept at home to do Ameri-
can business instead Of going
abroad to feed foreign labor and
to enrich our commercial rivals.
No Delivery Wagons.
This is but a single phase Of the
injury we suffer from having no
ships of our own. Our stupen-
dous foreign trade is made in the
face of the greatest obstacles. 1t
would easily double within the
next five years if we had our own
ships-our own delivery wagons
to carry our trade to our Gus
toners.
The rate paid by every passen-
ger and by every pound of freight
going from any port of this coun-
try to any foreign port is fixed in
advance by agreement among for
eign steamship combines and con-
ferences. If an American shipper
desires to send bushel of wheat
or bale of cotton or Of any other
product to Europe, he must pay
the rate fixed in advance by the
trust in Hamburg Germany. II
an American merchant wishes to
send a barrel Of flour or Of ce-
ment or a piece Of machinery or
any freight to South America, he
must wait until the foreign
steamship combine in this coun-
try can ascertain from Europe
what price must be charged for
carrying It.
Not an American vessel runs
from this country directly to
South America beyond the Equa-
tor.
EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN
THAT CROSSES THE ALLAN
TIC OR GOES TO SOUTH
AMERICA MUST PAY THE
RATE THAT THE FOREIGN
STEAMSHIP COMBINE FIXES
IN ADVANCE IN JENA, GER
MANY. OF COURSE, THESE
RATES ARE ALWAYS THE
HIGHEST THAT THE TRADE
WILL BEAR.

a reasonable profit upon invest
