The Tribute We Have Paid.
For the past one hundred years the
foreign commerce of the United States
has amounted to the unthinkable amount
Of nearly one hundred and fifty billions
of dollars, Seventy-six per cent of this
was carried in foreign ships, which col.
lected as tribute from the American
shippers the freights thereon and tool
that much money out of the country anC
out Of the pockets of our own people
The amount that our industry and pro,
duction thus poured into foreign Golfer.
for freightS, insurance and to banking
interests, amounted to no less thar
twenty-eight billions of dollars-a ire
mendous indictment against the apathy
of our interest in American ships anC
overseas trade. To just that extern
nave We depleted our own resources anC
retarded the expansion of our shipping
industrial, commercial and agriculture
interests.
The immensity of the amount We hav,
thus given to others for what we nigh
do for ourselves can be visualized b,
comparison. 1t is sufficient to hav,
built fifty-six Panama Canals. 1t i
about twenty-eight times the amount W
rave spent in these one hundred year
for all our improvements of harbors
waterways and canals-excepting onl,
that at Panama. And in the last sever
years alone we have thus paid to for
| eigners, and out of the pockets of ou
own people, an amount almost equal t
the total allied debt of the allies to tn
United States.
Yet there are those in this countr
Who continue to ask the question VIII
We should not let the foreigner carr
cur freights if he will. Would it no
be far better to meet the situation whic
enables this foreigner to get the lion
share of world traffic by applying som
of the methods he has himself devise
to enable him to monopolize the com
merce? This vast sum, if spent in tn
United States and with citizens of tn
United States, would stimulate ever
industry, every trade and every profes
sion that goes to make for a happie
and more prosperous people.

A question that is often asked by
shrewd business men and others, in con-
sidering our merchant marine problem
is: What is the necessity of Ameri-
can-owned ships if the foreign ship-own-
ers can and will carry our ocean freightS
cheaper than We can do it for our
se.ves?n
This question should have been an
swered to the satisfaction of everyone
by the World War. Then we were driven
to acknowledge the necessity of such
feet, wIen the ships of those who were
later our allies were diverted from COM
melce to war purposes and could not,
or would not, carry the freights that we
were earnestly seeking to deliver in for
eign ports. Then we entered the war
and heard the cry Of our allies for
Ships, more ships!" and were compell-
ed to admit our poverty. Humiliating
as it was to the pride of rich America,
boasling the possession Of all that goes
to make up powerful and efficient
nation, our gallant soldiery was rushed
to the front and to our place in the
firing line in ships flying the flags of
other nations; else we would have re-
mained at home, impotent mad ignored
Under the spur and lash of necessity we
brought a splendid feet Of merchant ves-
sells into being, which is today the larg-
est single feet of merchant vessels in
the world.
Lesson of Experience.
Now, in time Of peace, with the ex-
perience of the not very distant past
to serve as q lamp to guide our foot
steps, shall we listen to those in our
own country and to the propaganda Of
our commercial rivals and make no eff
fort to maintain and to use that feet?
Shall We abandon these ships, leave
them to rot and decay, and leave our
selves an easy prey-eommercially and
otherwise-to these great powers which,
with characteristic energy backed by the
experience of hundreds Of years, are
reaching out for world commerce and
the dominance of the sea?
We have just witnessed a great Dis
armament conference which has deter
mined the naval standing of the great
powers. 1t behooves US to assure for
ourselyes-not for military purposes,
but for the protection and development
of our commercial as well as national
defense-that we hold our routes on the
sea by the maintenance of our merchant
marine in order to keep a relative po-
sition, at least with the other maritime
nations under the ratio that has been
established for capital ships of the navy
The Question of Cheapness.
Specifically, at least, it is true that
foreign-owned ships, costing less to con-
struct, operated under a lower wage
scale, and aided by government subven-
tions because of the service to all the
people, can carry our freights at lower
rate than we can carry them for our
selves. Whether or not they can carry
them cheaper, is quite another matter
We can consequently meet this foreign
competition only by adjusting this diff.

Reports Hay Crop Lower Than Normal.
Hawley ], Bean, who started cutting
his second crop of alfalfa Monday, says
his first cutting was considerably less
than normal this year, and this is cor
roborated by most of the hay men in the
Meadows district and on lower Butter

To offset the light crop there seems
to be a prospect for fair price this

NEWPORT HIGH
WINNER OVER
CRAFTSBURY
Border City School Boy
Stars Too Fast for
Craftsbury

Newport high, while not dis
playing the dash and aggressive
ness which marked the Dean game
OF Tuesday, had little trouble in
defeating the Craftsbury Academy
team at school hall Friday even
ing 50 to 81.
Craftsbury presented a team
somewhat lighter than Newport
but what they lacked in weight
they made up in speed and snappy
!. passing which resulted in piling
up of 81 points, the biggest num-
Der which has been chalked up
against the Newport H. S. team
this season. Newport while not
playing a strong defensive game
forced the game ofenaively and
from Albee's first basket which
opened the scoring, followed by
rapid shooting by "Slim" Hill and
Larry" Gardner, the Newport
quintet were never in rear
throughout the 40 minute Of play.
In the first period Gardner led
his team mates in making twin
counters, having no less than nine
baskets accredited him at the end
of 20 minutes of play. For Crafts
bury Noodle was high scorer in
the first period dropping five
through the net. Dutton was a
close second with four baskets to
his credit. The first ended with
Newport leading by score of 80
%.
The second period opened with
Albee again starting the scoring
ringing one from close to his bas-
kot. The playing durng this pc
riod was much closer than the
first and Gardner was only able
to land four baskets in this se5-
sion with Hill and Albee tied for
second with two apiece.
For CraftSbury, Noodle lead the
attack in this period getting six
points. four being free through2
from the IS foot mark with Dut-
ton obtaininp four noints. His

tal of II for Craftsbury During
the last half Newport was able
to run up a total of 20 which
brought the total to 50 with
Craftsbury trailing with 81.
For Newport Gardner was
high scorer with IS baskets,
among which were some brilliant
shots. Moody for Craftsbury
played a fast, clean game, the
peppery captain doing is best to
keep his team in the running. The
game was followed by dancing,
