THE SHIP PURCHASE BILL
An Advocate Of Government Monopoly
Criticiscs James J. Hill.


To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Saturdays dispatches from
Washington showing that the Demo-
cratic Senators are practically unanl-
nous for the shipping bill and that no
important changes have been made in
ii, dsprove the reports of difficult
ties with the bill which IL was alleged
the Democratic Senators we're encoun-
tering i'm caucus. IL was clearly case
of the wish being father "a the thought
with those who sent out such reports.
You indorse James J. Hills remedy
of "free slips" but Mr.. Hill ard many
others who are opposing the bill are
so i'll informed on the shipping ques-
tion that they don't know that we nave
had free ships for several years ana
have now even Withdrawn all restrlc-
tions as to age of the ships, foreign
watch officers and American registra-
ton rules but the remedy has rot
proved effective.
As 20 the chambers OF commerce and
other shipping and mercantile bodies
which YOU say are protesting against
the bill, show me any Of such protests
and ] vii. snow you that the personal
interests Of the men responsible Tor
such protests are best served by oppos-
ing the bill. Furthermore. none OF
them offer any other practicable plan
for establishing an American merchant
marine: they prefer TO leave matters
unchanged.
The shipping bills supporters in the
Senate have no. offered any opposition
to q full, legitimate discussion OF the
bill, but the ayowed purpose Of the
Republican oppos ition is 20 prevent the
bills passage by methods that were
never contemplated when the Senate
rule OF unlimited debate was made IN
the early DAYS o. he Senate, and by
their action the min gritty are endeavor-
ing 70 upset the basic principle OF
American governmert that the ma
iority should rule.
PHILIP MANSON.
New York. Jan. 20. 1915.
Mr.. HIS free ship remedy includ'
cd much more than the admission "a
American register OF foreign built
ships purchased by American citizens
That privilege was granted, 50 far as
ships not more than five years old
were concerned. in the Panama Cana
act OF 1912, and the cond tons OF
registry we're liberalized last summer
the nye-yesr limit being removed
What Mr.. Hill had in mind was the re-
moval of all restrictions on the opera-
tion OF such ships. The Presiden' is
now empowered 10 suspend some OF
the existing shipping regulations, bot
Congress recently came near passinl
the La Toilette seamen's bill, which
would have made IL more hopeless
than ever 70 try 20 operate American
manned ships in competition with for
eign manned ones. The Tribune did
not indorse Mr. HIPS ideas, but mere
ly referred 70 them 10 show that the
Presidents claim that there is pop
ular mandate or even a party mandate
behind the government ownership
scheme has no foundstion.-Ed.

London.-A German submarine
sank the old British destroyer Recruit

North Sea, but the score was more
than equaliZed by other British de-
stroyers, which, after a stern chase,
overlook and sank the two German
torpedo boats that had accompanied
the submarine on her cruise. Beside
these incidents in the North Sea, the
German submarines continued their
operations off the Scilly Islands, and
in addition to torpedoing the Amer

The destroyer Recruit was on patrol

She was struck amidships by the tor.
