The Roland Is the first ship

Discussing this matter Mr.. Lasker
said today:
'There Is nothing in the Con-
etitution to prevent Congress from
allowing the heads of a department
or bureau to appear on the floor
of the Senate or of the House and
present his reasons for his beliefs,
and answer inquiries and objections
regarding them. At present, in the
debates on all measures sent to
Congress by departments or bureaus.
a great many objections are raised
which the heads of the departments
sr bureaus concerned could clear
away to ,everybody's satisfaction in
five minutes If they were present
to do so. AS things are, they are
not present and the objections and
misapph ensions go out through the
country unexplained and uncor-
rected. The result is much false in
formation for the public and much
Ielay in the passage of needed
measures. These evils could be
avoided If Congress would summon
the heads of departsments and
bureaus and examine and cross-ex-
anime them at the very moment
while their measures were being
debated"

Mr.. Lasker contends that the sta
tistical arguments now used against
the bill are in many instances gross
ly erroneous. 1t Is claimed, for in.
stance, that in ten years the total
Of direct aid" to shipping Will
amount to 5000. 100000. Mr.. Lasker
says that he is prepared to prove
that the utmost top total of direct
aid" in ten years will not In prac-
tice be more than $3.50, ,000, 900. Ger
tainly it is clear that the most SEN
sible way to settle this statistical
dispute would be TO initiate the
practice of the British House of
Commons and put Senator La Fol-
lette and Mr.. Lasker face to face
on the floor of the Senate and let
them go to il.
This method would greatly help
this present Congress to get through
with it's work. 1t simply is not
going TO be able to get through
with 1t at all by using present
methods. The Administration fond
ly hopes that 1t is going to tie
