AUSTRIAN REPUBLIC
FACES THE YEAR 1920
WITH FOREBODING

VIENNA. Jan. 12.-The Austrian re-
public faces it's second year with fore
boding. Both the political and econo-
mic situations are believed here TO have
grown daily worse since carly autumn.
The holiday season found Vienna with
4 reduced bread ration. virtually no rats
and without fuel. The expected supply
been received and public utilities were
kept partly in operation only by great
efforts and economies.
High hopes had been entertained from
the visit Of Chancellor Rcnner 10 me
Supreme Council at Paris. The people
expected that Austria would obtain Aur-
Rcicnt credit. food. fuel and raw mater
ial for the resumption OF their lndus-
trial life. Now that the result OF his
Journey has become known the news
papers sound note of despair. One OF
them remarks That the decision or Inc
Supreme Council that NorarlbcrS ma!
not separate from Austria means that
that province is condemned to suffer
along with the rest Of Austria uni The
ordinary native native Will have hardly
sufficient for food md clothing becomes
A luxury for even the comparatively
well-todo,
themselves from the burdens Of Austria
and turn elsewhere for help. There have
hecn rumors If an impending revolt and
declaration Of independence In Tyrol. II
is charged in some quarters that the
whole separation movement in the AUS
trian provinces has been inspired by
German propaganda with view to es-
tablishing corridor between Germany
and Austria.
While Austria seems unable 10 obtain
foreign credit for rehabilitation. there
has been much comment here upon the
fact that foreign private capital has
been diligently exploiting the country.
II is asserted that the country has vir
tually been stripped Of articles deluxe
while it's remaining factories are unable
to obtain raw materials. According to
common report. foreign interests. prin-
Cipally Italian, have acquired enormous
holdings Of stock in Austrian industrials
and mines.
The government is evenly balanced
between Socialists and Conservatives
and thus far has been unable to give
birth 10 constructive legislation looking
to the solution of many internal prob
lens facing the country.

caused tho speedy collapse Of the kol'
chak and Denikene armies. The con-
tinued warfare in Russia. 1t was pointed
out, has caused the waste OF a" large
amount Of foods. the disruption OF in
dustry. and the destruction Of valuable
commodities, while on the other hand
tn. supply Of much needed food In both
France and Great Britain has been ser
iously depleted. Under these ctrcum-
stances. both rhe British and French
governments have perhaps wisely de-
cidcd that their first duty Is to their own
people and let Russia chose its own gov
ernment. create its own conditions and
70 stew its own broth. so to speak. II
is unthlnkablc that the people or the
United States will participate in any
military adventure against the Russian
SoMeit government. 1t has not been
and will not be. our policy. to emoroiI
ourselves unnecessarily in foreign diff
culties, and perhaps. the Russian stu
alton will clear itself more quickly with
out foreign intervention than with tho
continued intervention OF foreign gov
ernments.

II the American people are to main
tain their present high standards OF liV'
ing and retain even approximately their
present position in finance and trade
our annual surplus must be sold In for
eign markets. And wo can not do this
without ships--Ships owned and con-
trollcd by Americans flying the Ameri-
can flag into every port OF the world.
The purpose of the Shipping Board is
to establish permanent American
Merchant Marine; ultimately resting on
private enterprise and private capital;
supported by the grain and cattle-grow-
ing farmers of tho Mississippi valley
and the West and the Northwest; by the
cotton growers Of the South: by the
miners of the East and West; and by
the producing labor and capital of our
great manufacturing institutions.
We now have 1900 Shipping Board
vessels, operating forty-one routes
carrying our products under our owr
flag into the important world parts. BY
the end of 1920 this number will be in.
creased to some 2,250. Sales OF ships
to Americans are being made, but the
sales do not keep pace with the new
launchings.
The problem OF establishing a per.
manent Merchant Marine presses fol
solution. No question Of government
ownership is involved. The question Is
not between public and private owner
ship, but between American and foreign
ownership.
We wart an established American
merchant marine; how it shall be owned
Is less important. We desire that every
ship now government owr cd shall be
sold to and be privately owned and
operated by Americans for Americans
but that will come later.
Now the chief thing in hand is tc
create a merchant marine. She alone
will not do this.
Indeed. unless We have men. money
and brains in the shipping business
! ships may become liability rather thar
an asset.
How then may n merchant marine bt
established? 1t cannot be done in day
! It cannot be done by legislation alone
The Wheeling intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1903-1961, 1920-01-13

IT requires time. habit. growth and in
dividuRl capacity, initiative ana enter
prise.
Many seem to think the Shipping
Board can do this by reducing the price
Of ships and instantly shipping men
will spring up and all our ships will be
bought by private owners; and presto!
a merchant marine is a fact.
This Is a serious error. A substan-
tial reduction in price would undoubted-
ly sell some 800 or ouf best ships. but
this would not touch the problem.
Ships cannot be sold in large numbers
until the country is prepared TO buy
them. 1t is not now prepared
We have only n few successful ship
, ping companies; they. however. insist
that we reduce our prices and VIC would
thereby be able TO sell the ships. That
this is n fallacy is or easy dcmonstra-
ton. as is also their claim that there is
world market price for ships.
There Is no such market price. No
other country has ships ready for inn
mediate delivery. hence there can be no
world market price. The demand for
ships for present use cannot be met by
building ships for future delivery; the
! need for tonnage Is instant and pressing
and is now greater than ever befort
! and cargo rates are higher.
Our prices arc based on a fair esti-
mate OF cost. and n regular schedule OF
prices and terms is maintained, the same
to all persons.
When can VIC build ships cheaper?
Certainly there Is no indication here OF
abroad that labor and materials are get
ting cheaper. How. then, can ships be
cheaper?
England's costs are rising and she
/ has no ships for sale: indeed. she Is
, in the market to buy ship. 1t is asked,
then why don't We sell our ships:
Because we want 10 sell TO our own
people for use under our own flag. and
our country has not yet begun TO thin'
in terms OF ships.
We have not acquired the ship habit.
Who loans money on ships? Who could
he named off-hand that would buy a
ship mortgage? Arc our ncighbors send
ing our boys to sea? These things must
come TO pass before We arc a maritime
nation. prepared to buy more than 1000
ships.
