SHIP PURCHASE A HEREsY AND
peril

SHIP PURCHASE A HERESY AND A
PERIL
Every day furnishes new and I'M
answerabie arguments why the Federal
Government should abandon the ill-ad-
yised and unnecessary project for the
purchase of foreign vessels as means of
rehabilitating the merchant marine
That consummation, so devoutedly
wished by every patriotic American, will
be brought about only by the enterprise
of citizens actnated by that most potent
of influences, the hope of gain. To sup
pose that Government participation in
the carrying trade, in Government-own-
ed ships, is going to solve the problems
which have baffied the business men of
America is to put faith in the power of
the Government that is childlike. The
solution is going to be found, if at all, in
restoration of confidence in the financial
and commercial world, and in the de-
termination that American investments
in the foreign carrying trade shall have
the same protection that is accorded by
navigation laws of the other maritime
countries to their own investors. Open
the wav to that freedom by wise re-
vision of our antiquated navigtion laws,
and the chief obstacle in the path of
shipping under the American flag will
be removed.

There was big time here ON Wednes
day, when harvest home celebration
took place under the auspices of The
Junior Order American Mechanics
There were present about five hundred
people who listened with rapt attention
to an address by Rev. w. r. Toms, pas
tor of the Jacobstown Baptist church
He had for his subject THE Good of the
Order and while his remarks were in
tended primarily to be discourse on the
matters of interest to the members of the
order having the affair in charge he also
took occasion to pay a splendid tribute
to the industry of the farmers and theil
loyalty to their farming interests.

VICE PRESIDENT Marshall is authority
for the statement that President Wilson
will be candidate for reelection in
1916, and that he will not have any op
position in his party. This statement
apparently by authority, will not cause
much surprise as there are few who die
not expect Woodrow to try to succeed
himself.

The right of the United States to buy
the German ships now driven from the
seas by the potential power of British
and French naval strength is largely
academic. Perhaps we have that right,
probably we could defend it by accepted
principles of international law. But is
it wise to exercise right which is bound
to bring with it the imminent danger of
friction? Is there any emergency which
would justify the risk of sacrificing our
present unique position of neutrality?
Is there such need of shipping for the
carrying trade that would warrant de-
partRTe from the principle which has
for more than a century governed the
activities of the Federal Government
and its embarkation upon the field Of
private commercial enterprise?

of good business policy and of sound
economics dictates the abandonment of
