PROMISE EXPOSURE
OF STARTLING" FACTS.

And this brings us down TO the
Employers Industrial Com mission
report. Tie writer has had more
than two hours with the chairman of
that commission, Mr.. L. T. Gund-
ZACH, we'll known advertising and
publishing manager of Chicago. on
the strength of that interview it can
be said that this commission went
10 Europe believing pretty much in
our old way of doing things; belieV-
ing that if the govern .ent would
take its hands off" to use a much
worked phrase, business would see
to il that business revived and was
taken care Of. But the commission,
even against its prejudices, discov-
cred some very startling facts. AT
this time 1t may not be stated what
these facts are. The report will be
available in a week or 10 days and
every man in the United States who
will read it and who has been fooling
himself with the thought that we
didn't fight the war TO make the
world safe for democracy and the
rights OF the people without privilege

Hurley Suggestion on Ship
Program Brings Discussion

having them operated for private
benefits with some form of govern
ment supervision. The main fea-
lures Of his proposition are:
That the ships should be sold TO
and operated by American citizens
under no restriction other than the
terms of the bill of sale and the
GXatiOn of maximum freight rates
The ships should be sold at a price
which fairly reflects the current
world market for similar tonnage
Payment for the ships would be
made in installmcnts over a period
OF 10 years The purchaser would
carry necessary insurance and, since
the American marine insurance mar
ket does not have sufficient re-
sources TO undcrwrite all the vessels,
the government should step in and
carry its own fund. Each purchaser
who desires to operate in the foreisn
trade should he obliged to incOr-
pOrate under federal charter with

ASTONISHING THINGS
GOING ON IN ENGLAND.

Mr.. Gundlach told the writer that
he was astonished at what he had
found in England and that he was
convinced few people in the United
States-few business men-had an
understanding of what is going on in
the world just across the ocean and,
he pointed out, the ocean isn't as
wide as it used TO be.
There is. of course, no reason to
believe that reactionaries of the
Lodge-Penrose type viii be swerved
from their determination TO re-
esta blish in all its pre-war glory the
autocracy of privileged business in
the United States. To attempt it is
to invite disaster. Progressive dem
ocrats realize il, and It will be most
astonishing if the people of the
United States, before 1920 brings on
another election, also realize that the
hope of continued, orderly progress
in this country depends upon their
supporting the progressive, demo-

THREE ATTITUDES
HELD on MATTEk.

This program brings out the fact
that there are three attitudes on the
merchant marine question. Mr.. Hur-
ley's plan appears to be acceptable 10
those who believe in outright private
ownership of the merchant marine.
Opposed to this. and shared by an
exceptionally large number of peo-
pie. is outright government owner
ship with operation on a cost basis
and for the benefit of American
commerce The third attitude, which
has the least support. is that of pri-
vate operation and government own
ership.
One of the most frequent argu-
ments heard against the Hurley plan
is that which directs attention to the
fact that the government, in the
Spanish American war and in other
emergencies, when forced TO buy

ment of a merchant marine develop

take care of such matters as are un-
profitable to private interests and
yet necessary to the development of
a merchant marine.

SHOULD LEAVE
ANSWER To PUBLIC.

There Is growing sentiment
among the more progressive political
leaders who frequent Washington
that both the railroad and the ship
question ought not be settled per-
manently until the people of the
United States have had an opportu-
nifty TO express their wish in these
matters. This is only one way of
saying that these leaders would
throw the two questions of railroad
control and merchant marine owner
skip into the 1920 campaign as the
chief domestic issues and let the
people of the United States say
whether or not they will continue
government control or revert TO pri-
vate ownership.
To be sure, the Lodge Penrose
regime in the republican party is not
in favor of consulting anyone but the
private interests. Whatever interna-
tional business of America wants Is
all right with the republican reac-
tionary and he sees no reason why
the people should be permitted TO
speak. \ few reactionary democrats
share this attitude

WASHINGTON. April . Especial
TO The News-Times.) America
merchant marine and England's
labor conditions are holding official
Washington's attention these days.
Edward y. Hurley's address before
tie National Marine league, in which
be outlined his proposed plan for
ownership and operation OF the yes
sells built by the shipping board, TO
say the least, has precipitated con-
troversies warm enough TO, in some
measure, neutralize the wintry blasts
which have been sweeping Washing
ton for several days. AS for Eng
lands labor conditions the an
aouncement that the Employers In
dustrial commission, sent TO England
by the department Of labor. has sub
mitted its report 20 the secretary

expeCtedly startling" has inspired all
sorts Of speculations as to possible
thrills when the report is made pub
lie. 10 IS understood the report viii
be given 20 the press the latter part
OF this week.
Rumors Of all sorts are current on
the real labor conditions i'm England
and their political significance: the
moro radical papers are assertins
that British labor now is I'm a posi-
ton 10 take charge OF the English
government whenever it decides such
action is necessary. The American
commissions report will be the first
official utterance on the conditions
IN England and already the depart
ment of labor is being deluged with
