do not want to lower the standard of
living or wages, nor would we abolish
any human law that safeguards the
life and welfare of American sailors
and travellers. But we may as well
recognize first as last. that we are
not to have an American merchant
marine without in some way meeting
this competition and equalizing it.
The socialistic scheme of the Ad-
ministratiOn for government ships is
nothing short of an economic crime.
Governments never did and never will
perform any service in production or
exchange with economy or efficiency.
Every government enterprise in the
world is over-manned; every govern
ment owned railway with one or two
exceptions is practically bankrupt
today. The Prussian-Hesse system,
the only one in Europe that can make
both ends meet, charges so per cent.
higher rates for freight transporta-
ton than we pay and pays its railway
employees only One-half the wages OF
this country.
For every dollar that Uncle Sam
puts into merchant marine two dol
lars of private capital will refuse to
invest. Besides, the government can't
buy any ships, or if it does it will sim
ply be transferring ownership without
adding a single ton to the capacity
for service. 1t can't build any ships
and if it could it would cost 20 to sc
per cent. more than the same ships
could be built for in a private yard by
private company.
Once we Americans get a start there
will be plenty OF American capital t
enter the shipping industry, buildin'
and sailing of ships, for both mus
go hand in hand. Standardizing th'
building Of ships is what is needed
and we would have had this long ag,
il we had done as other nations hav
that is, given encouragement to tn
building and owning and sailing o
American ships.

REAL AMERICANISM

NToT all the jewels of political wisdom are scattered
y the floor of the Senate or House OF Represen-
tatives. Senator Wadsworth, OF New York, in an ad-
dress 10 the Vaughn class at the Calvary Baptist
Church, recently had this to say
1--WE must have system of education in which the
Of the rich will work elbow elbow with the son
Of the poor We must learn understand another
The slow growth Of poisonous class feeling only tends
TO destroy democracy. The East must know the
West the North the South. and the rich the poor
man. in a country that is certainly wonderful one to
work for"
Just read that again and compare II with the
fuminations OF Frank Walsh late Chairman OF
the Committee Industrial Relations a deserving
Democrat" who planted discord in every section OF the
country.

At the recent meeting OF the National Security Con-

OF the administration IL pointed out that the Presi

DELAWARE COLLEGE AND ITS CATALOGUE.
nR SAMUEL CHTLEs MITCHELL has sent to us
- the catalogue OF Delaware College fresh from
the press. Il edited by Professor W. o. Sypherd,
OF the English Department It is pleasure to
ceive IT,
There are several matters in Il which, we think,
make II especially interesting to friends Of the college
and OF higher education for the youth of State.
One is the statement that ut desired that every
dldate for admission shall have completed four-year
high school course" II is felt by the trustees and
faculty OF the college that this strengthening Of the
entrance requirements is justified by the progress OF
tho high schools throughout this region.
Another OF these interesting matters is the
course for the training OF teachers. by Professor
George s. Counts. Tie will enter upon his duties in
connection with the Summer School on June 90 II
is announced that this department will aim TO
train young men as teachers, principals OF high
schools and superintendents Of education. Ma
turaly. therefore It will be Of great value TO the
schools of our State
In considering the summary Of students contained
IN the catalogue it should be borne in mind that it.
does not take into account the eghty-six students
IN the women's College the 16s students In ths
Summer School
Regarded IN detail a whole think the new
catalogue will meet with the approval Of the Delaware
public.

ANOTHER REYERsAL9

THE Washington correspondent Of the New York
Journal Of Commerce declares that there is
doubt whether President Wilson would welcome any
further burden imposed through increase in the in
come tax and it is understood that Secretary OF the
Treasury McAdoo will support the President in this"
The writer believes that the is that politically
the rich are the who contribute generously to
the Golfers OF the political campaigns"
II this information is correct it indicates another
change of mind the part OF Mr.. Wilson and
Secretary McAdoo In his message to Congress Of
December last President Wilson said: by some
what lowering the present limits Of exemption and
the figures at which tho surtax shall begin to be i'm
posed and by increasing step by step throughout the
present graduation the surax ITSELF the income taxes
at present apportioned would yield sufficient
to balance the books Of the Treasury at the end Of
the fiscal year 1917" In his annual report for the
fiscal year 1916 Secretary McAdoo said
1T is respectfully suggested that consideration may
well be given to increase in the rates Of taxation on
individual and corporate incomes a means OF rails
ing in whole, in part the additional revenues
quired TO meet the new expenditures"
II the Journals correspondent is giving the right
It must be that Wilson and McAdoo have seen
the puoker Of their campaign purse strings.

A ONE.MAN GOVERNMENT.

W(HEN he changed his mind on the subject NJ a
tarin commission, President Wilson said:
wish that it were not necessary that it should
fan to my lot to choose the men who are 70 com
pose it, ~
lnen' IN couple Of weeks. he changed his mind
anu let II oe known that he would not consent
to tariff commission law that provided for solecor
OF the members by any except himself
The plan proposed by those who desired conr,s
sion as nearly fair possible was that the conn,is
sion should consist Of FIVE members one selected h
the President, one by the Democrats Of the Senate
one by the Democrats of the House, by the Re-
publicans OF the Senate by the Republicans ~
tae House That would give the Democrats three OF
the i've members. But President Wilson considers
himself the great AM Of the United States and won't
permit anyone but himself voice in selecting the
commission.
Perhaps he will finally decide to be a commission
all by himself

TWO ACCOUNTTNGS

Il MPERoR WILLIAM will pass into history as a
n monarch who led the German hosts not TO glory
but TO shameless slaughter.
When he provoked and embarked upon the present
war he thought he would become another Alexander
the Great Caesar, Napoleon No doubt he realizes
by this time that he has led his people TO inevitable
defeat that in the last stages the contest he must
make tho best terms possible with the Quadruple
tente and that the Faherand bled until beached shat
tered financially and commercially and stripped OF its
colonies will occupy pabe position In the court Of
the nations.
