IN MEMORIAM.
Harmon Shaw.


God sent him here-a mission TO fulfill.
Sent him with his blessing, his peace,
and love.
Kept him here, according to His will,
His race to run, his manliness to prove.
And Nature In her care, was kind TO
him,
For tall, and strong, and happily he
grew.
Developed soul. and mind. and strength
of limb.
Won the respect of every one he knew.
Till manhoods prime, he fingered here
bless,
happy home-his family-and friends
And then, upon them fell a deep distress
He crossed the river, where life's
journey ends.
Just like the birds, the sunshine, and
the flowers,
And all the other things that are divine
They thought so confidently, HE is
ours
But God spoke gently saying, HE is
mine"
Your flowers will return again to you.
When chilling winds of winter shall
depart
God sends once more the sunshine and
the dew
And from His spirit-comfort to your
hearts.
Your son, your brother, and your
friend,
Will return TO this sad world no more
But in that Fairer Land, that has no
end,
Across the sea, he waits upon the shore.

British Favor
u. s. Offen. to
Stop Ship Tax
Era of Determinations Is
Feared by Steamship Men
Unless Country Falls in
Line With American Plan
Parliament Considers Law
Effort Made TO Have Every
Nation Restrict Taxation
TO Own Merchant Vessels

In. an effort to head off the inter.
national shipping tax war which is
now threatening, British steamship
men and members OF Parliament are
supporting the bill to accept the offer
OF reciprocity made by the United
move is under way IN Parliament to
put this through.
Several maritime nations since the
war have passed laws taxing not only
steamship companies operating under
their own flags but foreign lines
calling at their ports. The result has
been double taxation, and the tendency
at present is to increase the rates.
Great Britain was the first country to
tax foreign shipping. The United
States followed, and similar measures
are under consideration in the Scandi-
navian nations In the revenue act of
1921 in the United States a clause was
included exempting steamship lines Of
each country from taxation when reci-
procity was granted.
The move in the British Parliament
to accept the American offer is fostered
by Alexander Shaw NJ. p, son-in-law
of Lord Inchcape. shipping magnate.
Mr.. Shaw explained the situation in
"The Liverpool Journal of Commerce"
in the following words:
eve are faced with the prospect Of
a tax war. This would be very grave
matter for British shipping, and also
for British trade generally. The fact
OF finding a taX-gatherer ct every port
would enormously. handicap interna-
tional commerce. and in the long run
an additional burden undoubtedly
country, ewing to enhanced cost of
transport which such tax warfare
would impose.
Added to all this there ls The seri-
ous risk of international friction de-
veloping from the attempt of every
country to tax the ships of every other
country instead of confining itself to
taxing the earnings of it's own ships.
"The main idea underlying the
clause is that the sound rule as re-
CARDS shipping is that profits, if any,
are really earned on the high seas and
not in any port OR inside any country,
and that consequently it is polite as
well as convenient all around that each
country should tax its own ships and
not attempt to tax those If other coun-
tries.
That is the only policy really con-
tistent with the freedom of the seas
FOR international commerce, and the
adoption by this country of the sound
rule advocated would be singularly
. timely at moment when the United
States appears to be in danger of de-
parting from that ideal which she So
strenuously asserted during the war"

Peace Believed Near in
Pacific Steamship War
Reorganization of Conference
Said TO Be Considered;
Fall Outlook Better

Reorganization Of the trans Pacific
conference. including all lines plying
from Northwestern ports and Van
couver. is believed to be near, accord
ing 70 reports from Seattle. This
would result in stability in rates, fol-
lowing the ocean war which has been
in progress for some moatas. Restora-
tion OF the trans-Paciic conference
would tend also TO stiGen rates from
New ork and ether Atlantic ports on
business 10 and from the Orient
The foreign letter of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce states that
.nere is 4 continued demand fer freight
space during the SUMNER, the period
when business usually siackens. which
is particularly pleasing to the steam
ship companies. 1t is predicted that
the heavy fall crops now in sight viii
tend to harden rates. All steamship
services are being asked fer add tional
reservations for wheat. AS 3 conse-

23 Million Ship Subsidy
Is Proposed by Italy
To Combat Lower u. s. Freigh,
Rates and Add 100000
Tons 10 Fleet

An extensive scheme is now being
worked out by the Italian government
for the construction of 100000 tons
of merchant ships, to cost 800, 900, 900
lire, or $36,000,000 at the current rate
OF exchange. Of this amount the gov
ernment is to pay 500,000,000 lire, or
S23,0oO0OO, and shipping companies the
rest Minister of Marine De Vito urges
heavy subsidy for Italian vessels to
offset what he describes as lower Amer
ican freight charges This program
has been under debate for some time.
According to the Under Secretary Of
State for the Merchant Marine, there
were 50 ships of 54O,275 deadweight
tons under construction at the various
Italian yards on April /. Of these So
of 637 466 tons, were steel ships, two
Oh Z,lb0 tons were wooden boats and
one of $50 tons was concrete.
Italian merchant ships numbering
1856, of 1888, ,72O tons, were laid up al
various ports on May %.

Ruling ON Tug Taxes
May Cover All Ports
Merchants Shipbui'ding Cor

Legal Question

AS result of a recent ruling by In

Blair against the plea of the Merchants
Shipbuilding Corporation, of Chester
Pa, towing companies in all ports may
be called upon 10 pay back taxes under
the B per cent transportation tax which
was effective from 1918 to January l.
1922, according TO statement from the
Atlantic Coast Shipbuilqers' Association
The issue was fought out in the Phila-
delphia district. where the Merchants
Shipbuilding Corporation contested the
tax upon towage income except for
money received for work performed on
an hourly basis. Commissioner Biair
decided that the full receipts were taxa
bic
The association announces it is in
formed that assessments of this tax will
be extended to all U. s. ports. The as
sociation is making inquiries from its
members whether a further fight
against the tax, which it calls Illegal
and unfair, shall be made.
