posed by Organizations
PREFER SUBSIDY PLAN TO
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
Would Not Object To 1t If
Government Would Quit
After Five Years

Washington, Feb. 10.--In a hearing
today on the Alexander $50,OO0,0O0
government merchant marine bill, Will
liam Douglas, representing the chamber
of commerce of the United States said
the people of the country do not en-
dorse the idea of governmental en-
trance into the shipping business,
This statement provoked Chairman
Alexander to reply, cit is question
whether you speak for the people,"
Then, when Douglas said the people
are eager for q merchant marine, and
do not care how they get it, Represen-
tltive Hardy queried: Doesn't the
chamber propose to oppose this bill
because the cnamber favors a subsidy
plan3"
eff the committee remains stub
bOrn," retorted Douglas, "I think tho
chamber should oppose you. But II
you limit the time the government shall
continue in the business to five years,
for example, would probably sup
port the bill.'
When Douglas presented a referen-
DUN showing the chamber overwhelm-
ingly opposed to the bill, and is in IA
vor of subsidies to foster growth of q
marine, Chairman Alexander declared
he had heard the rank and file of tho
local chamber at Portland, Oregon, had
no opportunity to vote on the question.
Douglas claimed that a $50,000,O00
appropriation would give the govern
ment only so or go ships, whereas sub
sides of $5,OOO,00O or $6,0O0,0OO year
ly would be the means Of getting 400
to 500 ships in 10 years.

ern-states added to the general ex-
| citement attendant upon the p0lltlfal
millinery exhibit. Roosevelt's forth
coming trip to the West Indies, he said
is intended to provide another "back

Semp's letters indicated that Mr.
Hitchcock is interesting himself in q
campaign for Hughes. From Hitchcock
however, came a denial today that sucf
is the case, while Hughes reply tC
Slemp declared that the justice is Out
of the political game.

shine from the announcement of the Ne
