WASHINGTON NOTES

Washington, Aug. 29.-(Special cor
respondence) THE ship subsidy bill is
TO be taken up by Congress at an
early date and speeded to final action.
No piece of legislation that has or will
come before the present congress is so
vitally bound up with the future well
fare of the United States. Even the
tariff does not exceed the merchant
marine bill in Importance. OF what
use would it be to protect our indus
tries by adequate customs duties if our
export trade is to be handled by ships
subject to the orders of foreign own
ers and operators?
Never before has the country found
itself possessed of n fleet ready-built
to handle our overseas trade. Never
before the World War was it so i'm
pressed upon the American mind that
an adequate merchant marine was in
dispensable as a part of the national
defense. The measure now pending
before congress is the result of years
of study given to the subject by the
foremost merchant marine experts of
the country, and its provisions repre-
sent their composite judgment and that
of the patriotic men at Washington
who are devoting themselves to their
country's good. The money cost of
the subsidy, held up as a bugaboo by
the enemies of the Legislation, is in
significant when compared with the
benefits to be derived therefrom. No
other form of national expenditure will
return such large percentage of pro-
fit.

The Boom About to Bloom.

A business boom is approaching this
country which will make the poor old
Roma look like the bubble in a hypo-
dermic needle. Will industrial strikes
be permitted to inflict on it the fate
which met that airship? The govern
ment says No! Government insist
ence that the nation is rapidly ap-
preaching a stage where domestic
needs will bring about a great bust
ness boom, which must be adequately
handled, Constitutes the controlling in
fluence toward settlement of the mine
and rail strikes" says an article in a
Washington paper. To meet this pro-
missed demand manufacturing plants
and industries Of all kinds must be
kept running, and to be kept running
they must have coal and transporta-
tion. This fact, say government of
ficials, will bring an end to both
strikes very soon.
The boom itself is of course being
brought about by the return to more
normal conditions, the economy OF the
government in handling its business,
the rise in the value of bonds as the
people become more confident in the
administration, the disposition on the
part of European countries to get down
to business and settle their financial
difficulties, having learned that the ad-
ministration under Harding will not
stand for cancellation, the immigration
law which keeps out the flood Of cheap
European labor, the protective tariff
policy which once more hovers in the
offing, and score or more of other
legislative measures which have been
written into law by the republican
party.
The democrats, who have been stand
ing idly by and chuckling at the
thought of political advantage to be
reaped from industrial tie-ups, have
suddenly awakened to the fact that
the pendulum has started the other
way and that they have lost great
deal of valuable time dreaming dreams
and abusing the party in power. But
it is too late. Once the strikes are
over the boom will be with us, and no
party in power ever lost out when
prosperity was on the nest.
