Senator McCumber contrasted a
statement OF President Schwab of the
emergency fleet corporation, that the
United States would produce ship ton
mage of only ten million deadweight in
1919 with estimates of U-boat losses
of seven million pross tons in 1918,

IT IT, Suicidal
"a program which contemplates but
ten million tonnage is trlfing with the
most serious question that ever cor
fronted the people of this country. It
is worse than trifling; it is suicidal.
our only hope of winning this
war is in being able to keep our
allies in the field another year.
That means that 1t is incumbent
upon us to supply them with food.
If we can't get armies into the
trenches let us at least feed and
send munitions to those who are
fighting our battles
Senator McCumber asserted that
what we had, lacked most was the
foresight and determination to get UP

of that great world war threatened to
produce confederation that might
force us on the firing line

I'VE seem to have gotten so be-

The failure OF our shipping

Unparalleled national extravaganza

tended

can't win this war without buying
Liberty Bonds neither can we win

The bluster of the public press, he
said, which has grossly exaggerated

other factor in the delay.
