AS TO THE MERCHANT MARINE

Some years ago, when the govern
ment first began it's suits against the
great railroad companies, it made a
mistake. The suits were begun on
suspicion and by attorneys ignorant
of what they hoped to establish. They
knew nothing of the cost and main.
tenance of railroads or of the advant.
ages in favor of the railroad compan.
les, or on the other hand the difficult
ties they had to contend against.
Had the government bought say q
one-third interest in some great rail.
road company, obtained places fol
government directors in the roads
purchased, it, within one year there.
after, would have known where, II
any, there were abuses and would
have known how to proceed to correct
abuses. And there would have beer
no noise, no dislocalions in suits
which, after all, we're but investi'
cations to locate a supposed coloret
gentleman in a vast wood pile.
Now the country, because Of thu
foreign war, is confronted by thu
question Of how to regulate oul
ocean commerce. Had a majority o
our ~so-called statesmen been rea
statesmen, the question would neve,
have been sprung upon us, for tn
necessity OF our owning and CONTROL
ing our own merchant ships, woul'
have been acknowledged and pro
vided for long ago.

But the problem is before IN
country now and the necessity of solv
ing 1t quickly and without making
any mistake is an urgent one. Wha
Is best to do?
The debate in st. Louis a weel
ago was an interesting one, but ther'
were large holes in some of the argu
ments. The paper offered by ]. ]
Hill the railroad magnate, has some
mistakes and was indefinite in some
of its conclusions.
He quoted Mr.. Dollar as one
authority. Now Mr.. Dollar is a shiI
owner, but his ships are what ped
dlers' wagons + to express trains
They are small and cheap and the
business he does with them 10 a ped.
ding business.
Again Mr.. Hill is wrong when he
tells how much more ships cost when
built here than abroad.
+. Forty years ago the Oregon Navi'
cation company wanted three steam
ships of the class used at that time
and sent an engineer to investigate
everything and then order the ships
That engineer visited the eastern
ship yards and then those of Great
Britain. He told the writer of this
paper that while the cost was about
10 per cent greater on this side, the
ships proposed on this side were
superior to those offered abroad, and
he ordered the ships from an Ameri'
can ship yard. Since then open
hearth steel has been so perfected in
the making that it is cheaper than
iron, and we published a statement
from a high authority, last summer
wherein he showed by exact figures
that steamships cost no more in this
country than abroad. Then while
Mr.. Hill says subsidies would do nc
good, that the merchant marine can
only be restored by the Pride, patrit-
ism and united efforts Of the Ameri-
can people, what does he mean?
Secretary Redield, speaking prob
ably for the president, told how many
English ships were being offered him.
But he did not add that not one
of them is a first class ship.
The president is urgent to estab.
lish same government lines, and Is
being fought by Republicans on the
grounds that no permanency is prom.
ised, that such lines would destroy
such private shipping az we now have
and on the ground of dangerous in
ternational complications in ase our
government becomes a competition
for the nations ocean-carrying trade.
AS it looks to us there is an easy,
direct and effective solution of the
problem.
If the bill which congress IL
wrangling over now could be a little
amended it would do.
The changes would be:
1. Make the measure a perman.
ent one, say for ten or fifteen years
2. Let the government guarantee
IL per cent per annum on the cost
and maintenance of each ship.
8. Let a U. S. naval officer COM
mand or accompany each ship to re-
port to the government exact condi.
lions on each voyage.
4. Let the government be one.
third owner Of each ship and have
full representation on each board OF
directors.
S. That so many ships as are
needed for a beginning be bought
but, thereafter, all needed ships
should be built in this country.
Thus arranged, the government
would, within a year, know the exact
cost and maintenance of ships and
our merchant marine would be pro
vided for.-Goodwin's Weekly.
