ABLE DISCUSSION
TONNAGE SHORTAGE

London, Nov. lin a leading ar
ticle on ''The Tonnage Shortage and
the Remedy" the Liverpool Journal
of Commerce points out that the Brit
ish mercantile marine has suffered q
loss equivalent to four million tons of
shipping, detailed as follows: Hin
drance of new construction, 1,700, 900
tons; war losses, 1870, 900, excessive
depreciation one million tons.
Quoting Lloyds Register for the
quarter ending September 80 1916, in
which vessels completed only totalled
1000 tons gross, the Journal says
seventy thousand tons per quarter,
or one decent ship a week, is ride
ulous output. In spite of admitted
difficulties it is hard for the outsider
to believe that this cannot be i'm
proved, while everyone claiming any
general knowledge of the situation is
well aware that many more ships
could be turned out without at all
interfering with the more urgent re-
quirements of any other section of our
fighting machinery"
The paper claims that a constantly
increasing multitude of officials are
being employed to stifle the best eff
forts of shipbuilders and apparently
to insure that what available labor
and material there. is shall be wasted;
and urges the necessity of appointing
one strong man to govern everything,
to see that available supplies are not
frittered away, to insure that the man
who can best build big ships is given
big ships to build and in general to
arrange things on sensible basis.
"The men who have run the ship
yards for years as business concerns
who have guided their policy for life
time, find themselves helpless in the
face of an invading army, which APP
parently thinks that in this grave
crisis inexperience is more likely to
yield good results than expert knowl-
edge.
what is required is the appoint
ment of a dictator, an individual who
is intimate with the shipbuilding In
dustry and whose career is a guaran-
tee of strength of character, sound
ness of Judgment and outstanding
ability. Such a man could be found il
desired, and if such an appointment
were Immediately announced, the re-
lief to the shipbuilding world would
be instantaneous"

AUTO LICENSE CASE
be PASSED ON SOON

Washington, Nov. 11.-State au-
thorities and motorists generally were
affected in the suit challenging con-
stitutionality of New Jersey motor
vehicle laws of 1908. 1t presented
for the first questions of whether
a state has authority to raise reve-
nue. for maintaining state roads by
imposing automobile license taxes,
and whether automobile pleasure
touring is interstate Commerce"
Although the supreme court in jan
uary, 1915, by unanimous opinion, up
held Maryland's motor license laws
as not burdensome upon interstate
commerce, the new questions were
raised in an appeal by Frank ]. Kane,
New York citizen, from conviction
of violating similar New Jersey laws.
Both Maryland and New Jersey
statutes impose a graduated automo-
bile license tax, upon both residents
and non residents, based upon horse
power.
In the New Jersey case, however,
the state authorities admitted that the
legislature proposed to raise revenue
for maintaining state roads by means
of the license and that such taxes
were not solely for administration
costs of regulation and registration of
motor traffic, as was the case in
Maryland.
New Jerseys courts held that the
raising of money by such licenses
imposed on the use of automobiles in
New Jersey roads and not upon the
vehicles themselves, as direct prop
erty tax-was clearly within the
states police powers to compensate
it for improvement of and wear and
tear upon the highways. Kane, how
ever, contended that the courts opin-
ion in the Maryland case merely up
held a law not designed for revenue
purposes and that the New Jersey
revenue raising law was void as dis
criminatory and state burden upon
interstate commerce.
Upon the question of whether motor
pleasure touring is commerce" in de-
Tending Kane's suit, the New Jersey
authorities contended that "com-
merce is more than mere pleasure
and that Kane could not successfully
attack the New Jersey laws as he
was convicted of their violation while
merely touring through Patterson to
Delaware Water Gap, Pa.

SOUND CURRENCY
BILL IN s. AMERICA

Buenos Aires, Nov. 1.-The ordi-
nary session Of the Argentine congress
ended just previous to the recent
change in government when radi-
cal president assumed power for the
first time in history.
The period just closed has not been
remarkable for legislation. The best
paid parliament in the world, its
achievements during the ordinary
period have been mediocre, practic-
ally nil. AS usual the estimates were
left to be dealt with IN extraordi-
nary session. It is felt that the new
administrators first serious diff
Gully will be with national finances.
In regard to provincial finances they
are seldom considered. They repre-
sent permanent source of trouble
chronic chaos. The situation is not
improved by the studied silence of the
new president, DR.. Ir1goyen, whose
prediction taciturnity hes been
maintained with the utmost rigidity.
No one knows what the policy may be;
his platform is an enigma.
Among the last acts of the outgoing
government were the framing by
President de la Plaza, of sound cur
rency bill. The idea is to harmonic
the paper "peso" or dollar with gold
basis. At present the paper dollar,
legal currency, equals A cents gold.
The presidents plan is to make the
unit or dollar equal to a five franc
French currency. Twenty cents Ar
gentine paper would therefore be the
minor unit equal to the franc. 1t
would thus meet the requirements of
the decimal system and that of the
nations comprised within the Latin
league. The paper dollar, "A cents,
would disappear altogether, and the
arrangement based upon the actual
stock of gold in the Republic would be
when complete, perfectly in accord
with the ideal, guaranteed circulate
ing medium of a definite and invari-
able value.
A revised customs tariff has also
been considered. The author is the
! outgoing minister of finance who,
like his chief, is content to bequeath
the project to his successors.
