pIenty of CARRYING Capacity.

Even the advocates Of the bill, SEN
ator Burton insisted, believed the
government ships would be operated
at loss and he argued that TO be-
lieve those ships ever could be dis
posed of and the government retire
from the business without a tremend-
Gus loss on the original investment as
well as the deficit Of operation, was
folly Senator Gallinger suggested
that the loss In this way would be
many times greater than the ex-
penses of ocean mail subsidies, such
as he favored.
Senator Burton gave IL as his opin-
ion that the president with the
manifold duties which he is discharg-
ing so ably" could not have all the
available data before him when he
concluded that transportation facili-
Ties were limited.
THE fact is. said he, that trans
portation facilities to Central and
South America are abundant Ships
going from New York to South
America have plenty Of extra room
in them, the reason being that the
buying capacity of South American
countries Is greatly reduced owing to
the financial stress which began be-
fore the war and later developed into
a real crisis"

Lengthy Discussion.

Senator Burton who emphasized
the oft-reiterated determination OF
the republicans to debate the measure
at great length, had not concluded his
address when he gave way for the
appropriation bill. He challenged ad-
vocates of the bill TO tell any specific
route of trade on which II was pro-
posed to establish a government line.
Senator Fletcher replied that the
question of routes was one which
must be worked out by the shipping
board; that it involved a great deal
of careful study to determine just
what lines of traffic would be most
benefited. He declared that the mi-
nority report indicates that In the
opinion of its signers the United
States government was powerless To
assist its people in the emergencN
presented to American commerce by
the war II eontended. he said, not
for some other plan of relief than
that offered by the majority of the

ever he done; that American ship

/ To hold our young people on the
farm We must make farm life, more
attractive as well as the business Of
farming more remunerative. The

our tpeople can properly function
around it and become supplied with
the, necessary elements of human
