NO MORE SHIPPING TRUST.

One Of the corporate bogees most feared and de-
nouneed in pre-war times the so-caled shipping
trust" the international Marine company organized by
p Morgan It is quite true that this corporation did,
for considerable tme aim at monopoizing the Atlantic
trade and succeed in controlling considerable part OF
it, There was strong objection to it not merely because
of its monopostc efforts but because much of the stock
was foregn-Owned.
The monopoly menace vanished when the United
States government went into the shpbuildng and ship
operating game and assumed charge Of transatlantic
shipping The huge new tonnage purchased built and
contracted for made the trusts" 100000 tons look
rather small
Now the situation is further cleared up by the sale
of nearly all of the companys holdings to British con-
Germ The sale eliminates all British interest in American
shipping There will be left only ships of American reg
istry under American ownership, to compete with for
eign-regstered ships under foreign ownership.
Thus we have genuinely American merchant fleet
which is or soon will be- sufficient to meet all American
transportation demands and which under the conditions
enforced by the government will be required to observe
the principles of fair play and honest competition.
Thus the seas, already freed from military menace,
are being made in economic sense freer than they
have been for many years.
Austria is to be let off with an indemnity of only al
billion dollars Which would be cinch for her. if she
had the billion.

GERMANYS GOLDEN CALF.

Germany does not want to surrender Wilhelm HO-
henzoen and have him tried for his crimes by an allied
tribunal The majority of Germans still seem to feel
sense of loyalty to this fallen monarch They have openly
sympahized with him in his exile They have in
their hearts, and seldom with their tongues blamed him
\ for the origin or the conduct of the war.
They have never seen through his shallow bombast,
his hstronic sttng and posurng before them and the
rest of the world They associate him with the day Of
Gemany's real happiness and greatness Many of them
are still convinced that except for unforseeabe accidents
of war; he would have led them the Chosen People of
the Modern World into new and greater happiness and
glory.
1t seems not all unlikely that most of the Germans
would rejoice to their former kaiser on his throne
iagain
What can be done with nation which persists in
worshippng the golden calf Of royalty while pro-
Tossing faith and observing the forms Of democracy? The
first STEP obviously for the Allies is to make thorough
exposure of HOhenzoern pretense and crime and then
take the HohenzOllen family and remove it. root and
branch, by exile Imprisonment from all connection
with the German people. Deprived of their imperial
idols they may in time attain self-respectng political
faith that will enable them to understand modern civil
zation and make them safe to live with.

England's postwar position is that

by the war. Her wealth now is ap-
prozimately what it was in 1914.
What she borrowed abroad she did in
order to reIend this money on the
continent. Apart from England it
may be said that the European allies
lost over the war, while America, on
the other hand, emerges in a stronger
position than the one she held before
the war. Therefore there is all the
greater reason why America should
be willing to help European credit.

Course of Action.
UNION RECOGNITION HOPE

Special Dispatch to The Sunday Star.
PITTSBURGH, Pa. July 1s.-To
decide upon a course Of action to be
followed in behalf of the American
Federation of Labor against the
United States Steel Corporation,
which, throughout the country, has
refused to enter into negotiations
with unions of its employees, the ma
tional committee to organize the iron
and steel workers, an A. F. OF L. ad-
junct, held a special meeting begin
ming at 10 o'clock this morning in
Labor Temple.
Represent "a Unions.
Members Of the committee came
parts Of the country
and represent twenty-four established
international unions banded together
to organize workers in the, iron and
steel and allied industries. throughout
the United States.
Samuel Gompers, president OF the
American Federation Of Labor. is
chairman ex-officio OF the national
committee, the active chairman OF
which is John J. Fitzpatrick of Chica-
go, president Of the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor. At recent meeting
in Washington, D. c., the committee
discussed the calling of a. strike in
the iron and steel industry, but de-
ferred action until the meeting here.
The committee, which met in ex-
ecutive session tonight, does not ex-
pect to reach a decision on the ques-
tion of striking before tomorrow even
ing. The committee expects to be
continuously in session tomorrow.
during which reports will be received
on the organization campaign which
has been under way here for several
weeks.
Conflicting Reports.
This work, in which a committee OF
Pittsburgh unionists co-operated, is
in the charge Of William 2. Foster
secretary of the national committee
On the report of this committee will
depend the action taken against the
United States Steel Corporation
Whether it will be necessary to order
strike cannot be foretold at this
moment, because of conflicting re-
ports on the attitude of the corpora
ton toward organized labor. Secre.
tary Foster, in an interview several
days ago, stated that he had received
information from a source that could
not be questioned to the effect that
the United States Steel Corporation
would recognize labor organizations
among its employees and deal with
them on all questions affecting their
employment and wages, in the nea,
future.
