NO MORE SHIPS
NEEDED, SAYS
AsANO

The belief that the boom in the Pa
eific shipping business is of present
duration only, together with the stste
ment that few moresships were nee led
now, was expressed recently by Ryozo
Asano. director OF the Togo Risen
Kaisha. according TO q report from
Toxic. - .>
Mr.. Asano substantiated his belief
by mention of the new Pacific Mail
line and the fact that several new
ships had already heen put in service
by the different companies Iolng a
transpacifie business. ..-.
Il doubt that many more ships are
still required ON the Pacific" Mr.
Asano said. at is true that an unprc-
cedeHted boom in shipping trade has
existed throughout the world since the
war, but persons who stin entertain
such an optimistic view as to the flu
ture Of their trade as they did just
sitter the outbreak of the war are mis-
taken in their views.
TT will not be long before this viii
be demonstrated on the Pacific. Add
ed to the purchase Of new ships by the
cid companies. shipping facilities will
be further facilitated by the revival OF
the Pacific Mail line" -
Speaking Of the duration of the pres
ent prosperity, Mr.. Asano said that.
apart from the passenger trade. he
was, convinced that a very paying busi-,
ness would exist ut least two years.
after the end of the war. He said it
would be some time after the wars
close before all of the German ships
and steamers Of the Allied countries
engaged In the military service re-
stunned their former activity. r.. -;

A rider, intended to require gov
eminent clerks to work eight hours a
day instead of seven, was voted down
in the House a little while ago. The
discussion brought out the opinion OF
Representative Griffin of New York
to the effect that he believes six
hour day for government clerks is
coming.
Why, we wonder, are government
clerks to have shorter hours than en-
ployes in other lines The public pay
roll has always been attractive be-
cause tn epublic is a reliable pay
master, and it is likely that alone
would be enough to attract sufficient
able people to the government service

With the season of elections ap-
preaching, and with the responsibility
of selecting public servants put upon
the individual voters by the direct
priamry election law, and not thrust
upon few public-spirited citizens or
abandoned to a few professional poll
ticians as in the old days, parts of a
recent editorial in the Chicago Trib-
une are timely.
"Why should we expect competent
and responsible executives" it asks,
"if we will not exert our intelligence
in their selection Any herring drawn
across the trail will turn us aside,
any appeal to our prejudices, however
irrelevant, any petty self-interest,
however delusive, captured us. We
set up idols of clay because our mo-
tives are clay and our eyes are closed
or filled with dust. We set up COM
petent politicians and expect them to
be competent executives, without
troubling to inquire whether they are
competent as executives. We are
looking for figs when we have planted
thistles.
"A government is tremendous ex-
ecutive machine. 1t requires ability
of a high order, executive, not orator
ical, to administer it. 1t requires eff
ficient machinery and efficient men to
run it. A community will have
neither until it's citizens are efficient
citizens"
