THO Real Shipping Handicaps

Tho nea for shin subsidy is almost wholly based on the
claim that wages and conditions imposed by the seamens
law handicap American shpowners against foreign
owners.
The Star viii discuss that phase later time. but In
the meantime, two real handicaps may be pointed out
Every nation requires that ships hull and It's boilers
and engines be inspected year. IL is the practice
of foreign nations TO provide for this inspection IN way
that will not hold ships idle and so cause loss of earning
time.
British ship coming into British port notify the
inspectors of boilers and the inspectors of hu by wire
less They will have ready as the ship comes
in and they will inspect just much as they can while
the ship is dscharging cargo and taking cargo.
But the moment the ship is ready TO sail. II is given
certificate for such part of the inspection has been
completed and is allowed TO proceed
This is repeated in various ports and Is acceptable II
the entire inspection is completed in the course of the
year.
ton TO take place all nj once which the drawing
of the fires under all the boilers The boiler inspector
does his work when and he pleases and the hull
inspector may may be working at the time.
The effect in practice is that the foreign ships do not
lose hour of possible working time for the purpose Of
inspection while American ships lose about month
year out of their earning time 1t is this loss of time
imposed by arbitrary bureaucratic rules under executive
sanction that handcaps American ship owners TO the
extent of nearly 10 per cent of their earning possibility
Again all the other ships in the world have formula
for of tonnage which is different from the
American measurement Every time ship goes into port
1t must fees and dues of sorts based on tonnage
every time ship thru the Panama Suez canal it
must pay tolls based on tonnage.
The American method of measurement rates Amer
lean ship, which be exactly like foreign ship at
iIonl 10 on per kteateI
mage than foreign ship is rated That means that il
must pay in all sorts of dockage towage. clearance and
other fees well all canal tolls. from 20 TO 80 per
cent than the foreign competing ship has pay
The tolls and charges paid to foreign govern
ments and foreign officials and in the nature of
penalty imposed by this government unnecessarily and
without reason upon ships owned by Americans.
Here two handicaps which il the friends Of subsidy
in their of it's amount would alone
if removed. make subsidy unnecessary.
And the beauty of is that the benefits would 60
expense to all American ship instead Of the
favored few who would get subsidy.

FIRE DESTROYS
NOTED STATIONS
Earl of Chatham and Peter VOnnia,
Which Have Been at Valley Fair,
and Others Dead in Hatfield.

Three noted racing stations, including
Earl of Chatham, an animal that has
been a center of attraction several years
at the Valley fair, and Peter Nonnia
which was in the string last year. were
burned to death last night. when the
Connecticut Valley Stock Farm stable
In Hatfield, Mass. owned by Barna Fra
lick, was struck by lightning and de-
strOyed by the fire that followed.
The stable was valued at $4,000 and
In addition 20 this about $4,000 worth
OF racing stock was burned to death.
among them Peter NOnnia. seven-year-
old stallion by Peter the Great valued at
$4,000, and Earl of Chatham and Nell
son Todd, each valued at $1,000.
Two other horses, one two-year-old
filly by Peter Nonnia, and the other n
brood mare, valued at $1,000 each, were
struck by a Greenfield trolley car after
they had been freed from the burning
stable, when they had crossed the trolley
tracks. The filly was killed outright and
the mare was shot by a member of the
state police patrol after a leg had been
cut off
Edward Dickinson, secretary of the
Northampton Racing association. whose
house is directly in front of the farm,
said the loss of the three famous stations
is severe blow TO the racing game as
these animals produced some of the finest
racing stock that ever came from New
England stable
He said the bolt of lightning struck in
he very spot where the three best stall
lions were stalled. He and members of
the household made desperate efforts to
rescue the animals, but il was impos-
sible TO get them out When the rescuers
reached the stable the stalls were in
flames Forty tons of hay in the barn
greatly increased the force of the fire
Dozens of work horses and racing colts
were liberated. and it is believed that
most were saved
