would almost certainly have been
heavy.
In 1907 the passenger steamer City
of Cleveland, newly built, laying at
the shipyard in Detroit, took fire and
was destroyed. Even the efforts of
the Detroit fire department failed to
save her.
We draw a veil over what would
have happened if this boat had been
out on Lake Erie with 1 500 or 1000
passengers on board:
The passenger steamer Northwest
burned at her dock in 1911. Some
years ago the Goodrich Line steamer
Atlanta burned to the waters edge
on Lake Michigan. And again the
gods of luck were with the ship own
ers as there were only two or three
passengers on board.
And yet in view of all these wrecks
Mr.. A. w. Goodrich, mogul of the
ship owners trust, is battling desper-
ateIy to defeat bill which has as it's
virtue the protection of human life.
Goodrich has lobbyists at work in
Washington now to destroy the bill.
The ship owners recently held
very frenzied meeting here in Chi

Cleveland.

"Mr., Goodrich gives no reasons and
offers no explanation for his asser-
tions, said Mr. Olander, "but judg-
ing from the manner in which he and
others identified with him have been
quoted in the public press recently, l
believe it is safe to assume that the
particular part he objects to is sec
ton II Of the bill, relating to able
seamen and to ifeboats.
HE, like many other ship owners
in the passenge carrying business,
objects to the requirements of life
boats to accommodate all persons on
the ship and sufficient skilled seamen
to handle such boats.
Let me say emphaticaly that
there is nothing in the LaFollette bill,
either in section II or elsewhere, that
in the slightest degree justifies the as
sertions made by Mr.. Goodrich.
Representatives of the interest al
lied with Mr.. Goodrich have been
quoted as saying that the seamen's
bill will require them to overload their
ships with Hfeboats. They point to
few vessels carrying 5000 and A.
900 exeursionists, and claim that the
weight of Hfeboats to carry so many
people would be too great strain on
the upper decks. But they believe
these same decks to be good enough
to hold a solid mass of humanity,
crowded together and occupying all
available space. No complaint about
straining decks then. Passengers pay
fares, lifeboats don't
