WASHINTON LETTER

WASHINGTON, D. Gin the pro.
convention rush of business in con-
gress the Jones bill has just passed
the senate.
1t proposes to sell the $4,000, 000, 900
worth Of government-ownedm merchant
ships at sacrifice SALE
Senator Nugent Of Idaho, who made
stubborn fight against most Of the
provisions Of .the measure, declared
that it was evident that it was intend
ed that the buyers should get the ships
at about $2,000,000000, which would
mean loss to the government Of ST.
O00.000,000 on the transaction,
He read an official report showing
that these ships are running at a
profit Of $685. 100000, when the In
terest on the investment and the de-
probation was not figured.
He attacked clause after clause
throughout the measure, showing that
1t was worse even than the Esch- Cum
Minis transportation act, and that it
was built on the principle that all
losses must be paid by the govern
ment and all profits turned over to

PANAMA LINE SAVED

One small item was saved from the
deliberate scuttling of government
MERCHANT marine shipping. The eight
or ten steamships which are now being
operated by the banana Railroad
company, which is owned by the gov
eminent, are not to be turned over to
the tender mercies of the shipping
board, as was demanded by an amend
ment offered by Senator Calder of
New York.
1t was shown that the Panama
steamship line run by Uncle Sam has
for many years been carrying the co.
crnment's freight from New York to
the lsthmus at rates far below the
commercial rate, and that it has car
ried commercial freight so cheap.y
| that the rival lines have lost the bust
ness. Now the Panama line is start
ing to send its ships to few Carib-
I bean ports, including those of Vene-
zuela, in order to. balance the north
ward traffic, and the private fruit-car-
rying monopoly has uttered a loud
| howl of alarm.
Senator Jones of Washington, in
charge Of the bill, stood with Nugent
and Fletcher and others against Cal
der's proposal that the government
owned Panama line be forced to stop
operating SO successfully However,
he and the overwhelming majority of
the senate voted. by adopting the ship.

THE BONUS FIGHT

Back and forth in the Hobbies of the
house go the pro-bonus and the anti
bonus politicians, trying to reach an
agreement which will not hurt their
own political crowd and which will
put the other crowd 'in bad,' while
leaving the holders of great wealth
free from any serious degree Of taxi
ton. On Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays the old guard of both parties
informs the progressive element that
there must be no soldier bonus. be
cause the cost would "wreck the ma
tion.'
On Tuesdays, Thursday and Satur-
days the progressive notify the old
guard that unless a measure giving
adjusted compensation to the 1000, 600
ex-servico men is passed before the
campaign is much older the ex-service
men will all turn Bolshevik, due to the
high cost of living.
Just now the old guard is on the de-
fensive, and is putting off from day tc
day the debate and vote on the bill, be-
cause it is evident that the measure
with taxation features which will hit
the rich contributors of campaign
funds, will pass the house by siz
able majority when the roll is called.
Will President Wilson sign bonus
measure?
If the senate permits it to pass he
probably will. For the senate ole
guard will never let the bill through
that body until after the national con
Ventions are past. BY that time thu
Republicans will have definitely pledg
ed themselves to save the economic
situation, and the president is enough
of politician to realize that they will
not thank him for permitting them t,
show how they are going to raise al
additional $2,000,O0O,OOO by taxation
