that conditions will he favorable for American shipping long after the war is over If they did not they would hardly be putting good money into ships. Men who build merchant ships are not of the class that go at things blndly or who trust ,o unstable conditions. They us- ually know just where the profits are to come before they undertake a business enterprise. There is little or no specula- ton about their business methods They see the future of their business clearly before they start il so, when We find ihem going ahead building ships for the American trade we nave d decidedly certain indication that there is money in the business as far ahead as it is possible for human beings to see
 That they are ready to spend their money for ships for ,he American trade regardless of the business damning in- fiuences alleged to have been created by the seaman's act is clear proof that ship owners do not need to close up shop merely because the men who man the ships of the nation are granted decent working conditions and wage com parable with those obtaining m other lines of industry.

 II is contended by some that the sport ing revival in France is indirectly the result of universal training. Certainly the statistics show an advance in the national physical standard. How this training helps in all industrial effort has been dwelt on in describing the results in Switzerland and Germany The same congratulations apply to France. But the real worth of the military work lies in the national spirit developed. The morale of the race, nursed in the camps and barracks, gives today what some glibly call a regenerated nation. If France is regenerated she has her army to thank for this birth of new life.
 When you see the defenders of France in the trenches where every element is fighting to break their spirits. and. con template the insouciance with which they meet the dregs of discomfort. wounds and-death. you realize that her. sons are citizen soldiers in the ideal distinctions of the term Then another truth dawns on you: Out of solidarity of service France has found her soul.-Granville Fotescue.

While the shipping interests are clam bring so loudly that the seamans act has sounded the death knen of Ameri- can shipping comes the announcement from San Francisco that Mayor Rolph has made nearly million dollars from that industry since the law became ef- fective. Further it is stated that he American sailors and nyfhfefs the 4Pnse4,cR9tYh cRYh flag. This assuredly does not look like American shipping has gone to the dogs of that a government subsidy is neces- sary to prevent the American flag from disappearing from the seas Neither does il lend an aspect of decadence 10 marine to note that on May l, 1916, there were three hundred and sixty eight mer- chant ships contracted for or actually building in American ship yards and de- stined to fly the American flag regard. less of the existence of the much be- rated seamans act.
 If American shipping is suffering so severely from the alleged inhibitive pro- visions of the seamans' act that Am ercan shippers are being forced to change their register to avoid bank ruptcy how comes it that an individual who did not go actively into the ship ping business until that much decried law became effective was able to make nearly q million?
 Also how is it that there are more vessels being built for the American sea trade than has been the case for years?
 It is true that the earnings of Mayor Rolph may be greatly exaggerated but. suppose that they represent no more than one half of the sum stated Con- sidering that the law is only a few months old, a half million or even quarter million looks like a pretty fair dividend to draw from an industry that is "decadent' or being swept from the will probably seek to explain that the great scarcity of ships due to the war conditions may be held responsible for this remarkable showing but this does not by any means explain why il is that nearly four hundred vessels are to be added to the American merchant marine within the next eighteen months. If American shipping is on the verge of ruin how comes it that more vessels are being built in American ship yards than at any time in the last decade. The war may be responsible in a large measure for the extraordinary profits made from he shipping business by the San Fran cisco mayor but it is hardly reasonable 10 suppose that such a great number of vessels are being constructed purely on the speculation that war is to continue indefinitely or for a sufficient time to allow the owners to profit from war conditions.
 Most of these vessels will not be fin- ished inside of six months and many will not be ready for service for a year or more while the war may be over in one or two or three months. Now, it is undeniably certain that the builders of those vessels are banking on no such uncertain prospects It is as sure as sure can be that they clearly see just where they are going to realize a profit on their investment regardless of wheth- CT the war continues or not.
