House. since over two hundred mem
bers have been found to be absent.
Leader Underwood says that "a have
nothing but praise tor those members
who stayed here during the hot weeks
and have answered roll call after roll
call and who have done the work. :"
A year ago the members OF the Lower
House finished up their work early in
the spring after which they marked
time waiting on the Senate until late
in the fall. In the same way the House
has had out little to do for many weeks,
with the result that members have
gone back home to look after their
campaigns. However, urgent matters
have arisen in connection with the
European war, and Mr. Underwood
has expressed the popular opinion in
view of the rather exciting conditions
that the men who have been absent
for the last two months ought to be
willing to come back here now and
take their turn at the wheel

America and the High Seas.

The American people are beginning to
learn that agitation tor a ship subsidy
as urged by Senator Hanna during bis
lifetime was inspired by patriotic i'm
pulses. 1t does not necessarily follow
that Hama had the solution OF the ques-
ton figured out in detail but he did
have the big idea concerning the ne
cessity of the American flag floating
upon ships on the seas. Germany Eng,
land have been furnishing most Of the
big transatlantic liners while a number
European nations have been prominent
in the shipping industry. The minute
a European war breaks out traffic upon
the high seas is tied up. and the Unit
ed States government becomes a great
sufferer in consequence. This question
has been before the American people
forty years and it is time for action in
regard to it, in order that not only fer
temporary service. but for the service
at all future times, ships be open to
the American people. The western
farmers and the southern planters have
been the first and largest sufferers
from this holdup ocean transportation,
but every class of business IN the Unit
ed States is being adversely affected
by the lack of vessels to carry our COM
merce upon the broad oceans. Not I'M
til the Star Spanged Banner floats from
ships upon the high seas will America 5
interests he properly taken care of
BY protecting our coast trade we have
able to build up something OF a service
along our seaboard. and If some action
similarly intelligent as that which has
gone this far in solving matters was
applied to commerce between America
and Europe, then, it would not be long
before the United States would be in
dependent OF foreign governments
whenever the monarchs want to spend
time in fighting.
