MERCHANT MARINE
SUCCESS A NATIONAL
TEST, SAYS MAGNATE
Responsibility in Great Op-
portunity Rests on Govern
ment and Business Men,
According to Delaware
and Hudson President.

NEW YORK, Sept 24.-Judge L. F.
Loree, president OF the Delaware and
Hudson Railroad, arrived here today
aboard the Southern Pacific steamship
Antilles from Genoa. Speaking about the
plans now being promoted for the expan-
sion of the American Merchant Marine,
he said that not since the Napoleonic
wars has so great an opportunity been
presented to the United States to build
up its shipping and to extend It's foreign
trade.
The extent to which we utilize this
opportunity to establish a Merchant Ma
rine and extend our foreign commerce
will be Il fair measure of the capacity of
our business men and the Washington
administration. The responsibility for any
failure. partial or total, must rest upon
one or both of these forces"
In referring to the economic losses sus-
tanned by the warning nations. Judge
LoFee said:
The thing that most appeals. to the
man whose habit of thought has been
along business lines. after making due
allowance for the vast destruction of
life and the distress which will naturally
follow with the loss of heads of fam
lilies and the support of the disabled, is
the tremendous waste of capital and the
effect of that loss on the future. Mod
ern industrial condition require the capital
investment of about $1,000 for each work.
man employed.
THE total daily expenditure Of the
powers engaged has the practical effect
of destroying the means through which
1000 men can be kept permanently at
work. The indirect effect must be half
again as large, so that the ability to
employ permanently 5000 men is destroyed
each day as the war progresses. or
course, this does not mean that these
men Will be absolutely idle. but rather
that the loss must be distributed over
those who are kept at work
THE effect necessarily will be espe-
cially severe on the younger men seek
ing employment for the first time. The
destruction of capital through taxation
of savings. the inheritance taxes and
the income tax is just as certain and
has just as baneful an effect as its de-
struction through war.
The authors OF these taxes may not
seem so culpable as the authors Of
wars. but considering the relative
periods of duration Of their activities,
these civil destroyers undoubtedly work
more harm to civilization than the mill
tary ones"

BEFORE THE SANDMAN COMES

a fiat pale color? Now, I like the
flaming red of sunset, that is a gorge
Gus live color worth talking about
you ought to wish to be red, as l do!'
Just at that very minute, before
there was time for the first Gamma to
answer--the fairy queen walked by.
Good afternoon" she said to the
cannas, in her cordial, polite little
way, "is there anything | can do for
you today|
"Do for usl" exclaimed the cannas
together, what do you mean?"
81 mean this" answered the fairy
queen, this is wishing day. / am
around collecting wishes, every plant
may make one, and who knows?-
maybe they'll all come true!"
Then l wish to be yellow"
81 wish to be redw
Both the cannas spoke at once, and
SO suddenly the fairy queen was SUR
prised.
Dear me, how quick you made up
your minds" she said, you must have
been thinking about it before"
1--WE were," the two cannas assured
her. "And l want to be yellow" the
first Gamma repeated. "And l want
to be red,' added the second.
The fairy queen was puzzled. You
see she had expected to make each
kind of flower color, and now two
flowers of the same kind wished to
be different colors.
81 don't know what to think about
that" she said; won't either of you
give up?"
81 don't like red" said the first
Gamma, I'D rather be white"
I'm sure | don't like yellow" the
second Gamma assured her positively.

queen, making up her mind quickly.

and she waved her magic wand.
Quick as fash, the white of the
blossoms melted to yellow and to red,
and the gorgeous cannas faced each
other.
But alas! the Gamma that liked yell
low had to look at red Gamma, and
the Gamma that liked red faced yell
low blossom ali the day.
AT first that seemed very dreadful
to them, but as the days of sunshine
and shadow passed, each flower saw

BY MALCOLM S. JOHNSTON.
have watched when the moon goes
so fast,
Far above all the trees so high;
And breathless he rushes along and
straight past
All the clouds, when they fill the
sky.
And I've wondered just why, when so
swift in his flight,
He never is able to get out of sight.
And I've wondered and wondered just
why.
(And l never can guess alone),
When all of the clouds have flown over
the sky,
Then the moon stands as still as
stone.
But perhaps he takes rest when they've
all gone away;
Or, lonely, he's sad and just don't
want to play.
And one day I watched while the rain
fell down fast,
For Leerie to nod UP to me as he
passed.
But didn't see him nor hear his quick
feet,
Before the light shined high up over
the street.
Why didn't see him, when 1 was close
by?
And how did he ever reach up there so
high?
