Must Determine Own Policy.

Britain must determine her own
maritime policy. It Is elementary
that no effort will arise from any
quarter to coerce her in this matter.
There have been attributed to me
statements I never made and never
dreamed of making. 1t has been said
that I came abroad to urge universal
maritime scale. I have said nothing
of the kind and have no such mis-
sion. 1t would be the climax of i'm
pertinence in me to try to tell other
peoples what they should or should
not do in any matter belonging
strictly to themselves. My business
abroad is to get ships to carry our
boys home as quickly as possible.
shall get them wherever I can. Our
fathers and mothers want their sons
back now that the menace to freedom
seems to have been removed.
eve Americans do not desire to hog
the Industrial and commercial oppor-
tunities of the world. Honorable,
friendly rivalry is all we want. We
have a number of merchant ships
and expect to have more. But we
have no ambition to overwhelm the
mercantile marine of any other ma
ton. Britain. for example. in the ma
ture of things will have the advan-
tage of us in this branch Of enter
prise. She knows vastly more than
we know about shipping. Both her
long experience and her peculiar
geographic and economic position
give her a maritime predominance
which is unthreatened today. We
shall do our best, but our best will be
short of Britain'S.

VIII Make Use Of Ships,

I'VE have types of ships we do not
want. We built them for the war;
built them under tremendous pres
sure, and built them with the crisis
from Europe ringing in our ears
ships, ships; ever more ships We
have no complaint to make, for we
were fighting and not pursuing BUSH
ness projects. We constructed ship
yards we do not need. Here again
We make no complaint; It was a war
measure. We must make use of our
yards and ships as best we can while
infringing no rule of honor or
sportsmanship in the domain of inter-
national trade.
I'VE expect to attract a propor-
ton of our returned soldiers. Our
ships are now manned by aliens
When the Stars and Stripes appears
in a foreign harbor the men who go
ashore from our vessels are not
Americans: they are men of other
nations. We want to put Americans
on our boats-real Americans, repre-
sentatives of the heart of our popu-
lation. Thus will the world begin to
learn something of US. and we fiatter
ourselves that, knowing us. they will
not wholly dislike US. Can we get
returned soldiers to go to sea? I
think so. Having seen something of
the world already, they will wish to
see more. All that they will require
will be conditions of decency on our
trade vessels, and these we expect to
furnish.

Conditions to Be Livable. ,

Our merchant ship crews will not
sleep on piles of coal or wherever
they may find spot on which to lay
their heads. They would sleep on mat
tresses in well appointed staterooms,
with shower baths, and will receive
good wages. In no other way could
real Americans be induced to work in
our country's service.
"Our ships. such as they are-these
vessels built under war pressure-will
be operated continuously. They will
not lie idle in port. Fresh captains
and crews will await them at every
destination. Compressed air unload
ing will enable us to blow the car
goes out of them in few hours.
Loading will be accomplished with
corresponding speed. Facilities for
these operations and for repairs will
be numerously supplied. Only by such
methods Is 1t possible even to ap-
proach the conversion Of our wartime
cargo ships into vessels commercially
profitable"
