made unless il is found that private
 ly the demands for foreign carriage
 nd there will be no government op- aration at all if individuals and cor porations can be enlisted to handle the
 tional commerce.
 By these terms the objection to pub lie trading, which was primarily re- sponsible for the defeat of the orig inal measure, seems to have been ful ly met. The law not only meets d
 ital issue but also contains another excellent provision in that it creates shipping board of five members em- powered to investigate and report upon the navigation laws and commerce carriage conditions of all countries and is also granted authority to fix reasonable shipping rates and prac- tices and to prosecute discriminations and illegal combinations by carriers of ocean commerce. This feature is in itself of inestimable value in prevent ing extortionate shipping rates.
 While the limit of five years placed upon the operation of vessels by the government -naan-nnt i>~ -- -i-<-#- tory as the unlimited proposal of the first measure. there can be but little valid objection thereto. The ability of the government to operate a steamship transportation system in satisfactory manner is a much debated question with not few indications pointing to nonfeasibility, so the limiting provis- ion is not without advantages in that the government is given ample time to thoroughly demonstrate the prac- ticability and advantages of govern ment operation and if the results are found unsatisfactory. the time limit will allow the government to drop out with grace.
 What the results of the law will be are yet to be demonstrated but to all appearance the measure will be of in- estimable benefit and also an immense step forward in the direction of com- plete government control of the ocean shipping industry.
