ERECT TABLET
 10 PASSENGERS
 OF MAYFLOWER

BOSTON, Nov 19 (by Associated Press. .)-The erection at Province town and Boston of memorials the five Mayflower passengers who died at these places will be the contribution of the Massachusetts Society of Mayflower Descendants to the celebration of the tercentenary of the Pilgrims landing. A tablet will be set in a powder at Pro- vincetown and another will be placed on the building in Spring Lane, Bos- ton, now occupying the site of the last home of Mary (Chilton) Wins low, who is said to have been the first girl passenger to land at Ply mouth
 Four passengers died during the December days of 1920 while the Mayflower lay at anchor in Cape Cod harbor now Provincetown. Two days before the little ship set sail for the permanent settlement at Ply mouth, James Chiffon, who had been one of the signers of the famous Mayflower Compact in Cape Cod har- Dor died. A day before the little band had lost Mrs Dorothy Bradford, first wife of Governor William Brad ford, by accidental drowning, and the death occurred also of Edward Thompson, servant and Josper More, child.
 Mary Chiffon, who was the daugh- ter of James Chiffon, sailed on for Plymouth with her mother, and struggled through the trying times of the colonys early days. She lat CT married John Winslow and be- fore 1860 they removed to Boston, where she died in 1879, having sur vived her husband by five years. She was the only Mayflower pas senger to become a resident of Boston.

u. S. PREGNANT MARINE

On June 30, 1920, there were g. 404 sea-going merchant vessels of 800 gross tons and over flying the American flag, totalling approximate. ly 16,91S,912 dead-weight tons. Of this number the people of the Unit ed States owned, through the ship ping board 1902 vessels of 9,35S,412 deadweight tons. This is today the second largest merchant fleet in the world. There are flying the British flag, including all the dominions of Great Britain, 19,S31 merchant yes sels of 100 gross tons and over; totaling 20,5S2 1852 gross tons. Be- fore the war there were 2,3SS Ger man vessels in the ocean carrying trade, of 100 gross tons and over. In word, the people of the United States actually own and operate to- day, through the shipping board. a greater sea-going tonnage than the entire German empire possessed be- fore the war.
 When it is figured that in the first six months of this year 11.591.- 446 long tons of cargo were car ried from American ports in Ameri- can bottoms, or 51 per cent of all our export business for that period. and D >f were brought to, the United States by American ships, constituting 75.9 per cent of all the commodities inn ported into the country, it will be seen very readily what American merchant shipping means to Ameri- can business. It means that right now, over half our imports and over three-quarters of our exports had been gathered under the American flag, where this commerce is now subject to the regulations made for it by the American people. It is the effective unshackling of Ameri can business from the control of any power or combination of powers in the world. By utilizing all possible carrying tonnage of the American merchant marine the United States is today able to handle alone the whole of its export and import usiness.-Admiral William s. Ben son, in Lesle's Weekly.
