The thought of putting Old
Glory 'back on the seas" is one
that appeals to the Imagination
and arouses the patriotism of
every American.
Before the Civil War, seventy
per cent Of the ocean commerce
Of this country was carried IN
American bottoms. When the
European war began nlnety-sWo
per cent of our commerce was
carried in foreign bottoms.
Why has American shipping
disappeared from the worlds
highways and how can it be re-
stored.
The Republican convention
which recently met in Chicago
limited at subsidy-I think they
called it a ''slb-vention," but
whatever they called it they
they meant a real, blown in-the
| blown, Mark Hanna subsidy" !"
| That panacea has been urged by
certain Wall street interests for
years, but the most reactionary
/ of the Republican Congresses did
not dare write it into law. 1t
would involve a raid on the treas
ury which even the good .naturcd
American public would not to!er-
ate.
| DEMOCRATS OPPOSE
SUBSIDY.
| The Democratic party stands
four-square against ship-subsid-
ity and is responsible for the only
effecti ,e measures looking to the
rehabilitation of the merchant
marine which has been enacted
| IN IlIty years.
We have appropriated SO. OO0.-
600 for the purchase of ships to be
operated by the government, we
passed the sea-men's act. which
compelled foreign ships entering
our ports to come up to Americen
standards of living and wages.
and we took the tariff off ship
building materials, thus afford
! ing American ship yards chance
to compete with foreign yards.
More legislation is needed and it
will be enacted by Democratic
Congress.
During the discussion of the
| Shipping bill in the House, Con-
gresham Rufus Hardy of Texas
delivered me st-illuminating ad-
dress on this subject which is so
close to the hearts of Americans.
| He pointed out that from the
adoption of the constitution down
| to 1890 "Our flags dotted every
, sea and our sailors were famiar
! with the approaches and the
waters of every harbor in the
world.
DECLINE OF AMERICAN
SHIPPING.
Then came the Civil War and
confederate private e-s sank or
captured many Of cur merchant
ships, but, what was more dis-
astrous. England began to build
Cheyenne record., 1916-06-22

iron ships, and our wooden ves-
sells could not compete with them
At that time England was
ahead of US in the manufacture
of iron and steel products. When
our ship builders attempted to
import these necersary materials
they were compelled to pay ex-
orbitant tariff duties. They
could rot sustain the handicap
and ceased building ships for the
foreign trade.
To still further all in driving
the flag from the ocean, Con-
gress decreed that none but Am
erican-built ships should be per-
mitted to engage in our coast
wise trade. Thus, if al Ameri-
can capitalist purchased ship
built in foreign yard and placed
it under the American flag he
could use it to carry freight from
New York to Liverpool of Hong
Kong but he could not use it to
carry a cargo from New York to
Philadelphia of San Francisco.
AS the coastwise trade was
very profitable. American capi-
talists and ship-builders aband-
onGad their attempts to enter the
foreign trade and devoted them
selves to perfecting u monopoly
of the coastwise business so they
might charge American shippers
extortionate rates and thus earn
unreasonable dividends. This
they have succeeded in doing, as
a mountain of tfiicial testimony
amply proves.
HARDY POINTS TO REMEDY
Congressman Hardy very pro-
perly contended that this law Civ
ing Americar-built ships a mono
poly of the coastwise trade was
the real Senegambian in the mer
chant-marine woodpile.
He demonstrated that Ameri-
can shipyards could, under exist
ing conditions. construct ships as
cheaply as their foreign rivals
but they charged much more for
their ships, because they had a
monopoly of the coastwise trade.
Allow me to quote one of his
most telling passages.
Il repeat, because want you
to see it and because it is true
and clear. that if you give any
class of ships the exclusive privi-
lege of engaging in our coast
wise trade, the greatest coast
wise trade. in the world, that
privilege is going to give that
class of ships a higher price than
ships of equal intrinsic value. In
fact you put two twin ships on
the market, one having and the
other not having that privilege
the one will easily sell for 10, 20
or perhaps SO per cent more than
the other, and therefor you must
see that if that privilege. is Civ
en- only to American-built ships.
American-built ships will coptin-
,ue to be the highest priced ships
in the worl ], and our merchant
marine wilt continue to be ham,
pered by is inability to compete
on accou 1t of its higL-priced
