TIE SHIP-BUuDING LOSS

The merry shIpoullders who hnve
been joyously creating q great nercan-
tile marine are just beginning to realize
that they may have ships on their hands
with no work for them to do. The ship
ping board now has sent about twelve
million tons of shipping. which repre-
scnts an expenditure Of three million
dillars. The ships cost about four times
the cost Of similar ships built in Great
Britain before the war. MI. Burley pro
poses to sell to American business men,
these ships built under war conditions
and at war prices with the expectation
that they will be able to use them profit
ably under normal conditions, and with
normal freight rates. In the past Amer
lean ship owners have found the En-
glish. German and Norwegian coSnpeti-
ton. to say nothing Of the competition
Of the Japs and Chinese. practically
destructive of profitable operation We
do not see how they can do better with
Mr.. Hurley's high priced ships. Some
one is going to suffer very heavy loss
on the ships built by the shipping board.
That someone will most likely be tho
shipping board itself. and through the
board, the national government.

THE PRICE OF WHEAT

While it is, of course, we'll understood
that the wheat crop for 1919 will be
purchased at a guaranteed price OF s2.26
ner bushel. We may we'll ask who is
going to stand the loss. Some OF the
hureaucrats at Washington have suG-
eested that tho government should arb!-
trarily maintain the price OF wheat at
-s,2s. In other words the American
homo and the American bread users.
are 70 be taxed to make good the loss
which the government sustains from
guaranteeing wheat prices. The 1ntclli-
Sencer believes that this would be IN
fair and unjust to tho limit. Tho Amer
lean people need cheap food above every
thing else, and the government has no
moral right to tax the food of all the
people in order to make good tho speci-
AZ loss which was incurred for war pur-
poses.
There was a good reason FOR guaran-
teeIns wheat prices IN 1919. The world
needed all the wheat that America could
nroduce and II the war had continued
NO would have looked upon the large
wheat crop Of this year as /, Godscnd.

There is story in one Of the school
readers of a quarter Of a century ago
about shepherd boy who amused him,
self by shouting Wolf! Wolf!' and
Coughing at the ncghbor farmers who
ran TO the. rescue Of the impertl!cd

Always to find that there was no wolf

After the youth had given this false

But the wolf did. And slaughtered
half the flock.
The warning had come 10 mean
nothing to the farmers. They were used
to IT, And tired Of being deceived.

A LESSON IN A LIFE

Tho story Is told That Frank Wool
worth The five snd ten cent store mill
lionaire, who developed an idea into
fortune Of nfty million dollars, up to
the day of his death, paid a rent of one
hundred dollars = month to a lAndlady
IN Lancaster. Pa who was kind enough
to credit him for a room in tho days
Of his early struggles The career Of
Woolworth is one Of the romanees Of
American business Forty years ago,
Woolworth's entire capital was an idea
When he died he was master of millions.
His success Is an inspiring Illustration
OF the opportunities that are open IN
this country to ambitious youth. The
big men at the head Of the industrial
and commercial affairs Of America to-
day do not. as rule, bear the same
names as the men who occupied similar
positions fifty years ago. Our rich men
of today are not the sons Of the rich
men Of a half century ago. Our cap
tains Of finance and industry. and trade
have made themselves. It IS the glory
of this free country Of OURS that We
have no inherited rank or class The
prizes Of industry and trade: Of profess
sional and scientific achievement, are
won only by merit In short. the man
who can mako good gets on. and Tho
man who can't make good drops behind.
