U. S. NEEDS MERCHANT SHIPS
Hill. Redfield and Ship Owner Debate
Question of Government Owned
Vessels, at st. Louis.

st. Louis, Jan. ga three-cornered
debate between James J. Hill of st.
Paul, Secretary of Commerce Redfield
and Welding Ring, a shipper and ship
owner of New York, developed at the
National Foreign Trade convention
here.
Mir. Hill was not present but a pa
per which he had prepared was and
this drew forth a reply from Secre-
tary Redfield in defense Of the plan
for government owned steamships, and
a rejoinder from Ring.
Freedom for our foreign trade" was
the title of Mr.. Hills paper. He said
the indispensable" condition for such
freedom was adequate ocean carriage
in American ships. To buy service by
big subsidies was, he declared. a los.
ing game. The need of merchant
ships in America was almost as great
as that of other nations for munitions
of war"

DEFENDS BELGIAN INVASION
GERMAN CHANCELLOR DENIES
NEUTRALITY PACT eELlTTLED.
Declares He is Surprised That Phrase
Scrap Of Paper" Caused Un-
favorable Impression.

General Field Headquarters of the
German Armies, Tin F'rancel via Ber-
lin and London, Jan. 26.-"I am sur
prised to learn hat my phrase, A
scrap of paper which | used in my
last conversation with the British am
bassador in reference to the Belgian
neutrality treaty, should have caused
such an unfavorable impression in the
United States The expression was
used in quite another connection, and
the meaning implied in Sir William
Edward Goschen's report and the turn
given TO II in the biased comment of
our enemies are undoubtedly respon-
sible for this impression"
The speaker was DR.. Theobald Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, the German impe-
rial chancellor, and the conversation
occurred at the German army field
headquarters in a town OF northern
France, and in a villa serving as the
chancellor, for the foreign minister,
Gottlieb Won Jagov. and for the mem
bers of the diplomatic suite accom-
panying Emperor William afield.
The chancellor apparently had not
relished the subject until his attention
WAS called to the extent which the
phrase had been used in discussion Of
the responsibility of the war. He then
volunteered to give an explanation of
his meaning. In substance it was that
he had spoken of the treaty not as a
scrap of paper for Germany, but "as
an instrument which had become OBJ
solete through Belgium's forfeiture of
its neutrality; and that Great Bri-
tain had quite other reasons for en-
tering into the war, compared with
which the neutrality treaty appeared
to have only the value of a scrap of
paper.
My conversation with Sir William
Edward Goschen," said the Chancellor,
occurred Aug. 4. l had just declared
in the ~reichstag that only dire neces-
sity and only the struggle for exist
| ence compelled Germany to march
through Belgium, but that Germany
was ready to make compensation for
the wrong committed"

talk in Boston was spliced into the
line Monday, thirty feet of it at New
York and thirty feet at San Francisco.
Ever since the telephone was dis.
covered, America, the land of its
birth, has kept the lead, using more
telephones than all the rest of the
world. More than twenty-one million
miles of wire in this country now
unite nine million telephones in 10000
cities, towns and villages. All the rest
of the world has less than five million
telephones.
In 1876 the longest telephone line in
the world was from Boston to Cam.
bridge, two miles; in 1884 it was ex.
tended to New York, 235 miles. Chi
a and New York were connected in
1895, and in 1911 New York could say
Hello" to Denver.
In the forty years since the tele-
phone was invented nearly a hundred
types Of t~ransmitters, and numerous
repeating instruments and other de-
vices have been used and discarded
for something better, but 1t is asserted
that no single new discovery has been
responsible for this latest and great.
est achievement In the telephone art.
In the two circuits Of the transcon.
tinental line there are approximately
six million pounds of copper wire, or
about two hundred carloads. This
wire is stretched on 10000 poles,
which If they were loaded on railroad
cars would make twenty trains OF
thirty cars each.
The route of the transcontinental
telephone line is from New York to
Pittsburgh, thence to Chicago, Daven.
port, Des Moines, Omaha, Lincoln.
Denver, Salt Lake City and to San
Francisco.
be about s21.00 for a three-minute talk
from New York to San Francisco.
Stationed along this great stretch
of telephone line the day it was open,
ed were repairmen every few miles,
in the big centers, in the little towns,
on the prairies, in the mountains. and
out on the desert, ready to splice the
wires In case they were torn down by
sleet or wind, to solder a break or re-
place an insulator broken by a storm
or a mischievous boy. Like soldiers
on picket duty, these repairmen will
be kept on constant vigil, night and
day, In good weather and in bad, for
II is advertised that this line is soon

slant use.

TELEPHONE TRIUMPH
COMPLETE CIRCUIT FROM NEW
YORK TO SAN FRANCISCO.
FIRST MESSAGE BY INVENTOR
Line Officially Opened Jan. IS, 1915,
2,4oo Miles in Length. Trans
mission Clear and Distinct.

New York.-From the fifteenth
floor of a New York s~kyscraper, in the
office of Theodore n. Vail, president
of the American Telephone and Tele
graph company, Alexander Graham
Bell Monday afternoon t~elephoned to
Thomas A. Watson in San Francisco,
sending the first message ever tele-
phoned across the continent.
Although engineers and scientists
have worked for nearly forty years
perfecting transmitters, receivers,
lines. cables, switchboards and various
telephone apparatus that all COM
bined made transcontinental tele'
phoning possible, John J. Carly, CHER
engineer of the Bell Telephone Sys-
TEN, insisted that the inventor OF the
telephone should have the honor OF
sending the first ocean to ocean mes
sage, and thus it was that DR.. Bell and
Mr.. Watson were at either end OF the
line Monday afternoon.
In a little workshop in Boston, June
2, 1875, it was Alexander Graham Bell
who spoke and Thomas A. Watson
who heard the first message ever sent
by telephone. Come here Watson,
want YOU" were the first words ever
conveyed over q wire. That wire was
only sixty feet in length. The line
used Monday is 3,4OO miles long.
A bit of sentiment that entered into
the celebration of the opening of the
transcontinental line was that the
sixty feet of wire used in the first

To Exploit U. S. Products.

Diplomacy of the future, as Of the
past, viii be intimately concerned with
commercial ACKNOWLEDGMENT. 1t is,
therefore, OF vital consequence to
Americas future that advantage be
taken of the present opportunity to ex
plot the products Of American inven-
ton and establish a firm foothold in
the markets of the world, which Meth
er political effort, tariff discrimination.
nor low prices successfully can assail.
Under the shipping registry over
100 vessels have been transferred to
American registry. Some of the oner-
GUS restrictions of the navigation laws
were suspended by executive order. 1t
should be remembered that this noti-
f~cation is not a repeal of existing navi-
cation laws, but merely a suspension.
While there may be differences of opin-
ion as to the proper policy of up-build-
ing the merchant marine, ii appears to
be generally recognized that as long
as these restrictions are not legisla-
lively repealed, the possibility of an
enlarged American merchant marine
competing successfully with the ships
of other nations in time of peace will
be a matter of slow growth"
Secretary of Commerce Redfield de-
parted from his prepared speech at
the convention to impress on his aud
itors the great opportunities for for
eign trade that the war has brought
American business men. He said:
"A manufacturer expecting to enter
the South American market recently
told me that as a preliminary he inves-
tigated the conditions OF his competi-
tors in Europe and found that il would
take them four years to recover from
the effects Of the war, by which time
he hoped TO be so entrenched that his
product could not be dislodged."

PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS AND 1916
CAMPAIGNS INVOLVED IN SIT
UATIoN BEFORE THE
UPPER HOUSE.
WILSON'S DISCIPLINE
Is DECLARED FAILING
Senator Cummins Assails Measure and
Takes Occasion to Attack Presi-
dent Because of His Recent
indianapolis ~Specch-Ef-
forts Have Failed.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Presidential
politics and jockeyinG for position in
1916 are involved in the situation
which exists in the senate in the fight
over the presidents ship purchase bill.
There is an evident falling off in the
discipline which the president has
heretofore eXerted over both houses
of congress, and there are indications
that the test of the administration
strength is close at hand.
Attacks President Wilson.
An address of more than usual sig.
n%ificance was that made by Senator
Cummins of Iowa, listed as a Progress
siye Republican, in which he assailed
the ship purchase bill and took occa.
sion to attack the president because of
his recent Indianapolis speech.
Senator Cummins' remarks !ndicat.
that the efforts made by the Demo
cratic caucus in amending the provis.
ions OF the bill in order to keep the
Progressive Republicans in line, have
failed, and that the Republican sena-
tors who are still described by the pre-.
fix have decided to cast loose from
even a tentative adherence to the pro
gram OF the administration.
Declares Ship Bill Dangerous.
Referring to the ship purchase bill,
the Iowa senator described 1t as lone
of the most reactionary and dangerous
proposals ever made public" He de-
clared the administration was not en-.
titled to be called progressive. Refer.
ring to the presidents recent Indian.
apolis speech, the Iowa senator said:
Il predict it will pass into history
as a lamentable attempt of a president
to forget the courtesy and dignity al.
ways lookea for in one who occupies
the most exalted Office in the world"
He criticized the president for at.
tempting to whip congress into line.
and referring to the tariff and cur
rency laws, said it approached deceit"
to call them progressive"
Previous to the attack by Senator
Cummins, which was regarded as a
tentative announcement of his own
candidacy for the Republican nomina,
ton for the presidency, the Democratic
senators in aucus had made amend
ments which they believed would hold
several of the progressive senators in
line.
Amend White House Plan.
Under the plan which came from the
White House. the shipping board was
to have been composed of the secre.
taries of the treasury, of commerce
and the postmaster general. This was
amended SO that the board would con.
sist of the secretaries of the treas.
ury and of commerce and three civil.
iaus who had had experience in over.
sea business. 1t also limited the CAPT
tai stock to $40, 600, 900. 1t also provid.
