SHIPPING CONTROLS
TRADE, SAYS HURLEY
Best American Initiative
Needed Now for New Mer-

PLAY FAIR, Is WARNING
Yankee Workmen Will Pro-
tect Nation Against Boil
shevism, He Declares.

CHICAGO, April 25.-The American
merchant marines relation to foreign
trade was explained tonight by Edward
N. Hurley. chairman of the United
States Shipping Board, at the dinner of
the National Trade Council in Congress
Hotel.
Mr.. Hurley said In part:
Il hitch appreciate the honor Of ad-
dressing the National Foreign Trade
Council. AS one OF the original men,
oers OF the organization was confident
1t would prove most helpful to the best
interests OF the nation. The first object
OF the council was to encourage the
development OF a great merchant
marine. An American merchant marine
is now an accomplished fact.
ships are the controlling factor in
the development OF foreign trade. We
want to put the best American initia-
tive behind the operation OF the feet !;
We want to get rid OF red tape and the
possibility of stagnation when moving
these ships to the ports where they will
carry American trade.
I'VE can't build up our foreign mark
cts In siipshod manner. We must spe.
eialize In trying to meet the different
needs OF different markets, and We must
purchase raw materials and manufac-
tured products from foreign countries
a. well as sell to them.
No Unfair Competition.
There is feeling on the part OF
many business men that their competi-
tors. at home as we'll as abroad, are not
playing the game fairly. This is largely
Imaginary. Here we find some clois-
tered critics asserting we will never be
able to compete with British shipping
Over in England you will hear English
critics telling their Government that
Great Britain will never be able to COM
pete with US.
"As a nation we have never been
lacking In perseverance. energy, enter
prise and skill. We have developed
enormous purchasing power at home
and compete keenly. yet fairly, with
each other There Is no reason why we
cannot do the same in the markets Of
the world.
I'VE must show that we play fair IN
business. just as we demanded fair play
In International law.
"our foreign competitors will COM
pete fairly. They understand now bet
tar than ever before the evil of unfair
competition. 1t was hard to distinguish
between Germany's commercial enter
prtses and Germany's Government.

One thing I must urge while we can
spend millions for war, In the great so
cial change we are now undergoing this
country must be prepared to spend mill
lions for railways and all sorts Of pub
lie improvements, IL for no other pur-
pose than to keep labor employed"
Former Senator Theodore E. Burton
or Ohio made the presentation OF the
medal to DR.. Garfield. who also spoke.
as did George w. wickersham, formerly
DisposinE Of the Railroads.
Mr.. Burton, as the principal speaker at
the afternoon discussion before the in
stitute at the Hotel Astor on the ques-
ton, What Shall Be Done With the
Raiiroads7" urged the readjustment
be made before the lines were returned
TO their private owners. AS necessary
parts OF this readjustment he urged
three courses:
First. elimination OF the policy of
competition among railroads second, a
change In rates. and third, Government
incorporation OF railroads, thus pre-
venting interference from the conflict
ing regulations OF various States. with
regard to the FIRST point Mr.. Burton
said:
I'VE must abandon the long cherished
policy Of competition between natural
monopolies like railways. For many
years the generally accepted idea en-
bodied In statutes and regulations OF
both the Federal and State Governments
was that sharp competition between
railways was helpful for the people.
THE next thing to be done 10 an early
readjustment Of rates. Up to the begin.
ming Of the war living rates had in
| creased, but this rise was not manifested
in freight rates II hardly seems pos
sible to maintain that level Of railroad
rates with the Increase In wages Their,
have been arguments for a maximum
and minimum rate of return. but I an
not quite ready to give my approval tc
this plan.
THE general objection is that II W,
have Government guarantee OF the
roads earnings we are far on the way
toward Government ownership. II We
want Government ownership we should
go at II simply and directly. II we car
| correctly interpret expressions Of popu.
lar opinion the great majority OF the
people are not now In favor of Govern.

Unemployment and Several
Other Labor Problems Dis
cussed at Length.

The cooperation of all classes in cut

Of discharged soldiers-was urged last
night by Samuel 0ompers, president Of
the American Federation OF Labor, as
the best method Of checking tho menace
Of Bolshevism in this country.
Mr.. Gompers spoke at the sixth an
nual dinner Of the National Institute
Of Social Science at the Hotel Astor,
where George Gordon Battle presented
him with the society's gold medal for
his success In keeping labor aligned
with the nation during the war" A
silver medal was given Charles NJ.
Schwab for his Industrial services, and
ono OF bronze to DR.. Harry A. Gar
field for his work as Fuel Administrator.
Judge Robert Scott Lovett was i'll and
unable to receive the medal which IL
to be awarded him. Seven other recipi-
cnts of the institutes medals, 1t was an
nounced. are still overseas.
Mr.. Gompers took II. he said. that
the medal was not conferred upon him
alone but upon ''the men behind the
la Dor movement In America who have
stood 100 per cent with me in loyal
cooperation with the cause Of the coun-
try during the war.
Unless labor Is given proper en-
ployment It will become restless." Mr..
Gompers went on. 81 have learned that
there are 10000 unemployed in one in
dustry alone. The fact that We have
had triumphant. glorious victory, will
mean nothing to men who return from
the war to find that they cannot get
their Jobs back"

An appeal to the American people
for funds to carry on the work of
their American Red Cross will be made
November according to the following
statement issued today by DR.. Livings-
ton Farrand, Chairman of the Central
Committee, who says:
Appalling conditions in countries
of eastern Europe. imposing on Ameri-
can Red Cross obligations additional
to those assumed during period of the
world war, and continuation of activi-
ties in connection with already out
lined domestic program Of the Amer
lean Red Cross, make necessary an ap-
peal to the people of America for
further funds to carry on work for re-
lief of humanity"
1t has been decided to make this ap-
peal in the autumn in period of two
weeks eliminating the 18th of Novem-
Der, the anniversary of the signing of
the armistice,-the season when Amer
lean people may properly give mani
festation through contributions to
their American Red Cross, Of their
thankfulness for deliverance from add
ed horrors of war which have fallen
upon nations less fortunate.
At-present the American Red Cross
is bringing to close its activities in
countries in western Europe and with
the withdrawal of American troops
from the war zone, its work for army
abroad will end automatically. Dis
ease, suffering Of most heartenins
character and severe, are calling fol
relief in other fields.
The new international organization
Of Red Cross societies is preparing t.
deal with relief and health problems
throughout the world in future years
but these are immediate emergencie
which require the aid of agencies al
ready established Foremost anon
these agencies is the American Re
Cross.
At present emergencies are bein
met with all resources available, but
is apparent that imperative calls 70
assistance for the next year or NOR

CANNING EXPERTS GO TO FRANCE

Washington. d. C.-When the Roch-
ambeau steams out of New York har-
Dor bound for France, 1t will have on
board four canning and drying mis-
sionaries to the French. They are
missionaries in that they will carry
the message of home preservation of
food to country which now does
practically no canning at home There
1t is job for factories.
1t Is a cooperative enterprise, the
parties to 1t being the American Com
mission for Devastated France, the
French Ministry of Agriculture and
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The party was made up fol-
lowing cabled request from the
French High Commission, to Secretary
Of Agriculture Houston, requesting
the loan of some home demonstration
workers who were experts In canning.
Two home demonstration agents In the
French regions of Louisiana were Sc
lected for the job. They are Miss Erin
Dore of Crowley, Acadia Parish, and
Miss Caroline A. Boudreauy of Scott,
Lafayette Parish. With them goes

But the real beginning of the project
Is a long way back Of the cablegram
from the French Minister of Agricul-
ture TO the American Secretary OF
Agriculture. Last fall, Mrs. Bernice
Carter Davis, one OF the members OF
the party of four, was in France for

practically no home canning is done
that practically all canned products
are put up in commercial canneries
She found that the Ministry of Agri
