What Measure Was For

The measure was designed to per init freight steamships that were ply ng between the United States and foreign ports in transoceanic com nerce, and particularly those ships which the United States had under charter, to carry freight between American ports, while picking up or distributing cargo among several ports, during the progress of the war. It was not intended to permit foreign vessels to operate on regular sched- He between American ports, and THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE LINE OF FOREIGN SHIPS IN THE UNITED STATES TO GET TIE RIGHT TO OPERATE ON SCHED, ULE BETWEEN AMERICAN PORTS BY VIRTUE OF THIS LAW. The on ly ships which have received permits are freighters generally classed as "tramps," and most of them under charter to the Federal Government
 Wickersham politicians in Alaska would have the people here believe  that all the owners of foreign yes sels have to do elsewhere in the United States is to ask for the privi lege of carrying freight and passen gers between American ports. That is not true. There are no foreign passenger ships plying between American ports by virtue of this law and no freight vessel plying regularly between American ports.
 Want To Protest coastwise Trade
 It was announced by the Shipping Board many times that the measure WAS NOT DESIGNED TO DESTROY THE CONFIRMED AMERICAN POL ICY OF PRESERVING THE COAST WISE TRADE FOR AMERICAN VESSELS.

Chance To Show How BigSsY on
Are. sI.WlsliN

T. .1iad -. n
You remember the old lady in the
story who was asked how things were
going in her church, and who answered.
disconsolately:
Not very, well''-and then bright
ening, but praise God the Baptists
aren't doing any better"
America began a long time ago to
outgrow the spirit of that remark; to
the war we owe thanks for the fact we
are now about to outgrow it completely.
Under the impulse OF the great cause
in which we are all united the differences
which previously divided us have come to
seem inconsequential indeed, and good
people of every faith and creed are learn
ing the lesson which the forces OF evil
learned long ago-that they work most
effectively when they work together.
The country will have a splendid
demonstration of the unity which war
has helped to bring about when the
seven great war work agencies open
their united campaign for funds on Nov,
II. OF these seven organizations two are
avowedly Protestant-the Y. NJ. G. A..
and the Y. W. G. A. One is Catholic
the National Catholic War Council,
embracing the Knights of Columbus
the Jews are represented by the Jewish
Welfare board, and the other three
organizations-th Salvation Army the
American Library Association and the
War Camp Community Service-have
no specific religious affiliations.
To some extent all seven agencies
have in the past thought of themselves
as competitors in good work. Today, at
the request Of the President, they have
put aside every personal consideration
and are burying every difference in their
common devotion to a great ideal.
The amount of money for which they
will ask in November is S170, 100000
the largest single gift ever asked from
any people at one time. That the public
will respond with the full amount and
more is certain in advance. Hardly 9
home in America but has received from
it's soldier or sailor representatives evil
dence of the value of the work the
seven are doing and personal appeals
for their continued support. The cam
paign will be financial success.
But it promises to have other value:
that will far outweigh the financial
consideration. 1t will be the chance of
those who are at home to demonstrate
we can rise to the same heights of self
forgetfuness to which our boys have
risen over there. 1t will show to the
world united nation standing behind
united army-every individual con-
sideration and difference cast aside.
Big things are at stake in the united
war work campaign. The boys over
there will be waiting eagerly for the
nations answer to its appeal. Waiting
for us to signal to them. I'VE are send
ing over funds that will keep you in cheer
and comfort for another year. And all
of us-Protestant, Catholic and Jews
have learned the lesson of the great war.
As you are fighting and dying together
over there, so we are working and sacri-
fcing together over here"
The influence of that message will
live to make itself felt in the nation Ions
after the war is over and the boys are
home again.-Boston Traveller.
