PHILADELPHIA, May 3.-Welding
Ring in an address before the Amer
lean Academy of Political and Social
Science, asserted today that, not
withstanding general misinformation
to the contrary, there is now and has
been available practically ever since
the war begun, ample loading tonnage
for shippers sending their wares from
American markets to South America
Most of these vessels were under for
eign registry, however, he said, and
radical changes would have to be
made in American laws before the
United States could take its place
among the leading nations of the sea.
Mr.. Ring said, in part:
"A wrong impression has been
spread throughout the United States,
that we do not have sufficient com
munication with all the various coun-
tries throughout South America and
Central America. To those in the
shopping trade, it hardly neces-
sary to state that since the war com
menced there has scarcely been per-
iod when there was not ample tonnage
for the requirements of shippers.
at is however, humiliating to think
that the United States, probably the
most advanced country in the world in
the manufacture and value of its ar
ticles, must depend upon foreign ton
mage to carry its products throughout
the world. When the change will
come is extremely difficult to predict.

no worse than they are, but we want
them and the opportunity is right for
such a nation wide presentation of the
conditions. Who is ready to back such
fearless, fair, scientific exploration i'll

country?
Where shall the responsibility for
such a program of scientific inquiry

vice center? Not in the government
with a 1916 campaign imminent; not
in charitable organizations who have
work enough of their own with unem-
ployables, not in any legislation asso-
citation, for it is a mistake to approach
this problem with the idea that it can
be solved by laws; not by any new
organization. May some wise Provi-
dence save us from another organiza-
ton to deal with this subject!

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 3.-Tht
putting of the problem Of unemploy-

seven speakers who discussed Amer

consider unemployment as a risk of

UNCLE SAM MUST PROVIDE MERCHANT.
MARINE IF He GETS THE TRADE

"The nearest approach to anything
beneficial was the act passed last
August by Congress, which for brief
period permits the purchase Of for
eign built vessels and their transfer
to the United States flag, and their OPP
erations also for a limited period,
without many af the existing draw
backs of our Navigation Laws. Under
this act, up to the present time, 1877
steamers have been transferred from
Foreign to United States flag. Unfor-
tunately just as Congress closed, it
passed a bill generally known as the
"Seaman's Bill" which contained nun
erous conditions that add to the al
ready too heavily burden Of American
shipping. How this difficulty is to be
overcome is a problem very difficult to
solve, but it is certain to be one that
must come to the front very largely II
the immediate future"

Tea Table TALKS
ADJUSTING ONES SELF TO CIR
CUMSTANCES.
By May De Witt Talmage

One of the greatest things in life
is 10 be able to adjust ones self to
circumstances. To hold your hand
were. To slow down when it is
needed. or TO put on all the steam
possible 10 catch up when we are
behind time
Some people go at fun speed all
the time until there comes a smash
up. They take no account Of switch
es, or stalled trains, or baggage cars.
They pay no attention TO red lights
of warning or other signals. They
start out with the intention of get
ting somewhere. and getting there
as soon as possible. There are other
people in the way, crossing the
tracks. but they forget all this. Nat
urally this is all wrong.
Life is full of unexpected. unfor-
seen conditions that are cropping up
all the time. No two days are alike.
one telephone call will change the
entire day. We are like pawns on a
chess board Life is a game, there
is the opponent or partner we must
consider. BY one move he can upset
all our we'll thought out plans or
problems We must plan an entire
new move If we pursue our original
lead we will surely block ourselves
Some mornings we get up and life
looks like a straight unbroken track
ahead of US We have nothing to
hurry for; we are on schedule time.
We go the even tenor of our ways
But the next morning we find We
had not accomplished all we thought
we were going to do.
If we are man. unexpected
orders have come in, a new patent or
client has Unexpectedly claimed the
time we had counted on to accom-
plish the things that had to be done.
Then comes the time when we must
put on all the steam POSSIBLE. Some
things must be eliminated or put off
to another day. This is a test of our
ability to adjust ourselves to circum-
stances.
If we are women, a sick child,
the loss of a domestic. even an invi-
tation we are very anxious to accept.
or an unexpected duty call, will
change the pawns of our life. This
. not only happens in a day, but it
happens every day. The power to
make sudden changes in our plans.
to reconstruct the entire situation, to
suddenly put on enough steam to
drive us ahead at a rate of speed
that will enable US to accomplish al,
we have TO do, or to slow down
when the need for extra steam is
passed. and so get poise. self control.
and nerves, as reserve force for the
next time when all our energy is
NEEDED. That's the power that will
carry us straight ahead TO success.
