o,lv consistent that the United states govern
ment should give 1t the protection necessary
TO enable it to compete-that Ia. IL the present
high standards for American seamen are to be
maintained against such standards as are main
tanned on foreign ships.
1t might be argued. then, that free tolls for
American ships in passing through the Panama
canal would be a kind of subsidy for American
bottoms. 1t would, no doubt, and IL the United
States had not pledged her word of honor that
there would be no discrimination between ma
tions using the canal it would be the logical
thing to do.
In considering American commerce it must
be membe that American ships have no
foreign competition in the coastwise trade. The
Jaws of the United States prohibit any ship
flying a foreign flag from engaging in coastwise
com merce. 1t is evident, then, that free tolls
for American ships engaged in coastwise COM
merce, as between New York and San Fran
cisco, for instance, would be of no benefit to
the ship owner, as far as foreign competition
is concerned because only American ships can
carry on such trade. 1t would, however, furnish
greater competition for the trans-continental
railroads.
While the discrimination which the United
states has agreed not to make would come
mainly through this country deciding to ex-
empt from canal tolls American ships carrying
on trade with foreign ports. yet even exemptins
coastwise shipping or refunding tolls on Ameri-
lean ships, would, in a sense, be discriminatory.
For instance, it would not cost the American
government anything to return the toll to a
vessel flying the American flag; it would simply
be a case of the federal authorities receiving the
toll from the shipowner and placing it in the
federal treasury, whereupon a check would be
drawn on that same treasury for the same
amount to be paid back to the shipowner. In
the case Of the foreign ship, however. when
the toll is collected it is placed In the treasury
of the United States and stays there; the ship
owner must look to the country whose flag his
vessel sails under for reimbursement, although
that country has received nothing whatever
from the shipowner. Thus while the United
States would make no money on American
shipping, it would make money at the ex-
pense of other nations. This brings us back to
the fact that the United States has agreed in a
solemn treaty with Great Britain not to dis
criminate against any nation.
There is no doubt that American shipping
needs encouragement, but it ought not to be
done at the expense of American honor. Any
thing that the United States government can
legitimately do to help the American mer-
chan marine ought to be done. but not by
breaking faith with any nation with which we
have entered into a solemn agreement.

I am not disposed to read too

courage" however, is an expression
which is used in opprobrium or de-
