BRITISH SF1IPOWNERS THINK
U. S. CANNOT COMPETE ON SEAS

these highly paid men two or three
pulses. but it ruins the American ship
as on English or other competing
ships. We do not require any other
industry to employ American citizen
exclusively. and it is. wrong to di!
criminate against our ships when
makes a fatal increase in their ope,
ating expense. We have suspend
this law temporarily on account

suspended the shipowner cannot e.
cape paying excessive salaries 10 oh'
GERS and engineers.
The Englishman finds our ships
have cost twice as much as English
ships but he forgets that this is war
cost, inflated by all the necessities OF
haste to win the war. If ships must
be insured at this cost he makes
good point that we are doubling tns
largest overhead expense of operating
a ship. IT, however, we write down
the cost of our ships to business
basis. charging off the difference as
war expense. the insurance Will come
down, and American owners could ouy
and operate our government ouilt
ships on an even basis of capital cost
and insurance.
Our good English friend is confident
that within ten years we will give 1t
up, but he has rendered us great
service by pointing out the reai trou-
BILE. II we revise our navigation laws
SO as to give the American shipowner
a fair chance, and sell our war built
ships to American owners at the mar
ket price, the American business man
can compete with the world.
Now that we have this great Meet
of new ships, it does not seem posi-
BILE that Congress will act as gi-
gantic spider. weaving a web of laws
to ruin any one who attempts to op-
crate them. There is no question OF
the wages of sailors involved, but
merely a question of giving our new
merchant marine a square deal in the
form of modern and fair navigation
laws. We cannot starve or abuse the
shipowner and get results. any more
than a farmer could prosper by starv-
ing his horses.

BY r.. l.. ARDREY,
esident American Foreign Trade League.

PRESIDENT American fOre1sn Iraue League.
An English shipowner, who has
made a careful investigation in this
country, has gone home and reported
to his friends that they need not fear
American competition on the ocean.
When rates decline until our ships
are operated at a loss, English ships
will be making good profits. as our
operating expense is two and half
to three and a half times the expense
of an English ship.
His strongest indictn ent is that our
navigation laws are diametrically
opposed to sane administration of ship
ping" The writer has been reiterat-
ing this fact for years. Our laws are
based upon wrong system OF regu-
lating every detail regarding ship
by acts of Congress. while England,
the most successful of modern mari
time nations. leaves all details to the
supervision of one branch of the gov
ernment.
Our English friend states that the
wages of seamen and f1remen are
practically identical on American and
English ships. so the trouble is not
in our higher standard of wages. as
SO many people suppose. The Ameri-
can ship. however. is compelled to
carry a much larger crew. and this
makes a big difference in operating
expense This is not because Ameri-
cans are inefficient, but comes entire
ly from our false system of regula-
ton by petty officials who seek to
multiply the burdens of the American
shipowner.
The greatest difference which he
has found, aside from capital ex-
penses, is in the pay roll of the Off
GERS and engineers. This is the result
of another mistake in our navigation
laws We require that all officers and
engineers shall be American citizens.
This pleases somebody's patriotic inn
pulses, but it ruins the American ship
owner, by making the pay roll of

FEUDS OF MONTENEGRO
OFTEN CENTURIES OLD

CETTINJE. Montenegro, October
25 Correspondence of the Associated
Press).-While the allied statesmen
at Paris deliberate on the fate of the
nations of Europe, Montenegro con-
tinues its century-long customs Of
feuds, vendettas, shooting trays and
internal strife. and seems outwardly
to give little attention to the fate
reserved for it by the great powers.
There is a semblance of a local
government. but Serbia exercises a
preponderating influence in the at
fairs of the country.
There is a faction of the people
olas and the restoration of the mon
archy. There is constant strife be-
tween the royalists and the repub-
licans. the disorders usually taking
the form of fatal shooting combats
IN the mountains. Feeling runs high.
Casualties Sometimes Serious.
The republicans accuse the mon
archists of hiring members of the
comitadje, desperate mountaineers.
who respect neither law nor life, to
kill the leaders of their party. These
shooting and stabbing affairs usually
take place in sections where the
royalists are the strongest. The
-,
day goes by but the American doc
tors attached to the Red Cross mis-
sion at Cettinje. PodgoritZa and
kolacin are not called upon to great
ly aid victims of these encounters.
At Podgoritza there have been as
high as twenty wounded comitadjes
at the Red Cross hospital at one time.
There also are occasional border
fights between the Montenegrins and
the Italians and Albanians. The feel
ing between these races is extremely
violent. When tthe Associated Press
correspondent was passing through
the small frontier town of PlavnitZa,
at the head of Lake Scutari, there
was massed company of $50 Monte
negrins preparing to attack an Italian
garrison on the opposite side of the
lake.
Poorly Clothed and Equipped.
Many of these Montenegrins, who
were poorly clothed and equipped,
were mere boys of sixteen and sew
enteen. Some of the older soldiers
had been to the United States and
boasted American citizenship. All
professed a desire to give up fight
ing and return to America. The at
tack on the Italians took place the
next day. and many casualties On
both sides are reported.

Connecticut in area. Montenegro has
