the last congress under fair con 1itions.
and with the hitherto OmnipOteHt IN
iuence Of the president and his cabi-
net behind II. II failed.
IL failed because the republican ma
jOrty strangled il by a remOrseless
flbuster upon pitifully technical
plea OF opposition 10 the method
which suggested government owner
ship. IL failed because a wandering
plead OF seven boiling democrats ieli
in with the hlibusters and defeated the
bill
The need for American shipping
was tensely evident at that time in a
forecast OF the opportunities and ne
cesisties of South american and Euro
pean trade But this vital economic
measure was allowed TO die la the
closing days OF the 63rd congress.
The men who killed il, even while
processing their desire for a merchant
marine, have done nothing in the face
Of the nations increasing need.
Every day since the 63rd congress
adjourned has emphasized and ampli-
fed TIE vast commercial necessity Of
American ships for South American
commerce and European trade. Every
day has indicated the claim of the
vital economic emergency for which
the administration argued and failed.
But the men who killed it-flibust-
ering republicans and boiling demo-
crats-who killed it because they
could not have 1t in their way. have
not lifted finger or allowed a word
To provide for the nations necessity in
their way.
Now the whole great hemisphere
90 days later comes clamoring for
these ships which ought long since to
have been on the seas.
The presidents word or wish can
demonstrated What can this Pan
American congress do about it2
If these ships are 10 be builded and
launched under private ownership
then the strong men of this congress
from both continents ought &c get busy
here and now, TO start it. They have
manifested the enthusiasm. They also
represent the money. The congress
ought not to aG ,Ourn until TIE foun-
datiOn for this private ownership OF a
merchant marine is laid.
If this conference fails to do any,
thing definite. or start anything def
mite in private ownership to this great
end. then it is high time that Pres't
Wilson should get busy with the 64th
which, If it is like until the 63rd Will
be the most astonishing and apathetc
congress that ever assembled in our
national capital.
If the president expects 10 WIN TINS
coming congress to support a patriotic
shipping bill and navy bill which the
last congress rejected. he should get
before the people just as soon as he
can and wake them up so that they
wake up the sluggish and grossly ma
terial men who do the voting in the
senate and in the house.

American merchant marine, and an

1.-THE purpose of the Zeppelin as
war craft is not against combat
ants, but against military forces, de-
Tended towns and cities, ships, ar
senals and docks. The crews of the
Zeppelins are exposed to greatest
danger but they are just as human
as other branches of the service. They
have no intention to kill women and
children any more than the officers
and gunners of the artillery so far as
lies in their power to avoid
''There is proof of this-best
proof possible. It is to be found in
the unexploded bombs found in the
English towns. When the Zeppelins
are discovered and under the heavy
fire of the enemy, it may be vital to
ascend quickly. So it may be neces-
sary to throw off bombs that are
used as ballast. Then, whenever it
is possible so to do, the explosive
contacts are disconnected so that the
bombs falling where it is feared
there are n-combatants, will not
explode"
