RATIONAL SUGGESTIONS.

In the light OF Secretary McAdoo's
avowed purpose OF reviving the ship
purchase bill. defeated by the last

TO make some impression on the Con

Secretary McAdoo speaks authorize
lively for the administration. but as
the ship purchase bill was the Presi-
dents pet measure. the presumption
that he favors the present scheme is
not without warrant The Trade
Council report condemns government
ownership Of merchant vessels in prin-
ciple and practice. and declares that
continued advocacy OF that policy and
the seamen's act prevent the econom-
ic development OF the American mer-
chant marine by private capital Il
recommends that Congress authorize
the President TO suspend wholly or
in part the seamen's act until a gov
