A DEMOCRAT RECORD.

Every six minutes, " observes
the Washington Post, "a mer-
chant vessel arrives and another
departs from American ports.
From North Atlantic seaports,
there is a departure every eleven
minutes: and one from Europe
every forty minutes. This rate
of operation does not include
vessels in the service of the
army and navy. The merchant
fleet of 1900 ships under the con-
troll of the shipping board are run
as railroads on a TINA schedule. +"
The above a record to be
proud of speaks volumes for the
constructive ability and the Wis
ion of President Wilson and mis-
party supporters. 1t was made
possible by Democratic Con-
gress, not with the help but in
despite of the opposition of Re-
publican members Of the Senate
and House. During the session
of 19l4-l5 President Wilson urged
Congress to provide the means by
which the Government could go
into the ship building business.
He foresaW then the necessity
for ships. The House passed the
bill, but the Senate Republicans
killed it by a filibuster in the
closing days Of the 1915 session.
The next session the bill was re-
introduced and ultimately was
forced to passage by Democrats
over the vigorous protest of Re-
