The South on the Warpath

was rebellious group of Southern Sena-
tors who called on the Senate Committee
on Commerce to reject the nominations OF
three new members of the Shipping Board
until President Wilson could he persuaded to
name one member from the South Atlantic
or Gulf region. While this effort failed as
II should have done, the occasion was found
for demand on the Shipping Board that JUS
ice be done the far Southern ports if that
body hoped to escape drastic action AT the
hands Of Congress.
The first complaint is that the South has
not been given its proper share of the ton
mage recently allocated by the Shining
Board. 1t was shown by Southern members
OF the Committee on Commerce that one
shipping firm alone in New York was awarde ed
thirty-seven vessels as against six at the same
time for the whole coast line south of Hamp-
ton Roads. 1t was shown moreover, that
freights are ping up at Southern ports await
ing tonnage. At Wilmington. n. c., alone
Senator Simmons pointed out, the warehouses
are bullying with cotton, and 500 freight cars
are in the yards at that point with cotton
mat cannot be moved All the promise the
shipping Board gave the Wilmington ship
pers was that tonnage would be sent to them
some time in August"
The same condition prevails elsewhere in
the South Atlantic and Gulf territory, ac-
cording to the testimony of the Southern
-" ~ ''i'il resentment against
me shipping BOARD they called on the Com
mittee on Commerce to hold up the nomi-
nations or the three appointees until the
PRESIDENT withdrew one and named South
crner in his stead AS substitute for this
Senator Harding. a Republican, proposed that
the Senate adopt resolution at once de-
handing that the South be given fair treat
mcnt and volunteering to unite with Southern
Senators TO that end. He added that if this
action did not suffice he would assist the
South in taking more drastic action against
the Shipping Board. With this the Southern
crs withdrew their objections to the nominees
but ialr notice has been given the board
that it must in the future give RECOGNITION
to the interests of a section which il evidently
has ignored.
