Merchant Marine.

Immediate provision should be made for
the development Of the carrying trade of
the United States. Our foreign COM
MERGE has in the past been subject TO
many unnecessary and vexatious OBJ
stacles, in the way Of legislation of Re
publican congresses. Until the recent
Democratic tariff legislation. 1t was
hampered by unreasonable burdens of
taxation. Until the recent banking leg
islation, it had at its disposal few of the
necessary instrumentalities of interna-
tional credit and exchange. Until the
formulation of the pending act to promote
the construction Of a merchant marine, il
lacked even the prospect of adequate
carriage by sea.
For the safeguarding and quickenlng
of the life Of our own people we favor
the conservation and development of the
natural resources Of the country through
policy which shall be positive rather
than negative policy which shall not
withhold such resources from develop
ment but which, while permitting and
encouraging their use, shall prevent both
waste and monopoly in their exploitation
and we earnestly favor the passage of
acts which will accomplish these objects
and we reaffirm the declaration of the
platform OF 1912 on this subject.

Preparedness.

Along with the proof Of our character
as a nation must go the proof OF our
power to play the part that legitimately
belongs to us. The people Of the United
States love peace. They respect tho
rights and covet the friendship of all
other nations. They desire neither any
additional territory nor any advantage
which will not be peacefully gained by
their skill, their industry or their enter
prise; but they insist upon having alb
Bolute freedom Of national life and policy,
and feel that they oNyo 1t to themselves
and to the role Of spirited independence,
which II ls tholr seis ambition to play,
that they should render themselves Sc
cure against the hazard of interference
from any quarter and should be able to
protect their rights upon the seas or in
any part Of the world. We, therefore,
favor the maintenance of an army fully
adequate to the requirements Of order,
OF safety and of the protection of the
nations rights, the fullest development
of modern methods Of sea-coast defense
and the maintenance of an adequate re-
serve Of citizens trained to arm and
prepared to safeguard the people and the
territory Of the United States against any
| danger OF hostile action which may I'M
expectedly arise, and a fixed policy for
the continuous development OF a navy
worthy to support the great naval tradi-
| tons of the United States.

my and efficiency so as to permit their
navigation by vessels Of standard draft
1t Is the policy Of the Democratic party
to enact Gil laws necessary for the speed

We heartily indorse the provisions Of

government in the Philippine Islands as

The happiness, comfort and prosperity

strength of the men, women and children
OF this nation are its greatest asset, and
that in the conservation Of these the fed
eral government, wherever 1t acts as the
account and as an example, put into eff
feet principles OF just employment.
l. A living wage for all employees
@ A working day not to exceed eight
hours, with one day Of rest In seven.
8. The adoption OF safety appliances

ployed
6. Such provisions for decency. COM
fort and health In the employment OF wo-
men as should be accorded the mothers
OF the race.
Z, An equitable retirement law, pro-
viding for the retirement of superannu-
ated and disabled employees OF the civil
service, to the end that a higher stand
ard OF efficiency may be maintained
We believe also that the adoption OF
similar principles should be urged and
applied in the legislation OF the states
with regard TO labor within their bor-
ders and that through every possible
agency the life and health OF the peosle
OF the nation should be conserved.
