Uncle Sam May Join Reparation Board

porated In the senate resolution OF
October Is, 1927. by which the senate
ratified the separate treaty between
the United States and Germany.
This reservation, which was later
included in the Presidents proclama-
ton. provided that the United States
shall not be represented or participate
I'm any body. agency or commission.
nor shall any person represent the
United States as a member OF any
body, agency or commission In which
the United States is authorized TO par
ticipate by this treaty unless and until
an act OF the congress Of the United
States shall provide for such represen-
tation or participation"
Thus the administration holds that
under the specific language Of the SEN
ate's ratification resolution the inltia-
tive is clearly left with congress and.
1t is argued, suggestions from sena-
tors or congressman that the Presl-
dent should go ahead and name a rep
resentatlve and transmit the name To
the senate for ratification are clearly
beside the point.
Senator Underwood recently de-
clared In the senate that the only way
for the United States TO get any part
OF the German reparation payments
was TO get representation or the al
lied reparatiOn commission.

Americas Need of Big Merchant Ships

A CTUAL naval strength Of the
"A United States in case of val
would be greatly inferior to that of
Great Britain, Notwithstanding the
American and British navies are
placed on a practically equal basis by
the naval treaty agreement. declared
Senator Ransdell of Louisiana in a
speech.
Speaking on the naval disarmament
treaty and the legislation designed TO
extend government aid to American
shipping, Senator Ransdell, who is
president Of the National Merchant
Marine association, pointed out that
a navy, without adequate support
from its national trade fleet, is prac-
tically pOwerless.
There is only n way for naval
equality to be realized" he said, land
that is for America TO make material
additions to its commercial fleet. Swift
vessels of commerce., carrying both
freight and passengers, having a
speed in excess of 10 to 20 knots
preferably 90 knots and overland
from 10000 to $1,000 tons are most eff
fective as auXillarieS to the navy in
time of war"
How Great Britain stands in rela-
ton TO the United States on the basis
of such ships is shown in the follow
ing table, adapted from figures pre-
scented by Senator Ransdell. giving the

United States has," He pointed out
that if our commercial marine is TO
remain at its present level, SC far as
these fast ships are concerned, then
Great Britain, with her large fleet of

yond question, continue as she is to-
day, very much more powerful on the
