1t was truly excited pair of young
sters waiting at the station for the
evening train from the South. Uncle
Ted was returning after a two weeks
trip and Ruth and Jack had refused to
eat any supper In their haster to get
to the station.

as he returned to the place in the sta
ton where Ruth was anxiously await
ing the report. It's due in ten min

The ten minutes were long ones but
soon the big engine had stopped at the
end of the long journey and Uncle Ted
came down the steps OF one OF the first
cars. hello there. little pals" he
called. "In tell you it's great to be
back home again"
Were sure glad to see you Uncle
Ted" said Jack as he planted a kill
on both cheeks.
Come on" said Uncle Ted, lets
get homo as fast as we can. I'm nearly
starved"
Il wasn't long before the three pals
were home, finished supper and had

save out of that sum but it means that
the present plan is still costing around
S50,000,000 a year to operate about
one-third of the fleet while the rest
of the ships rest at anchor or tied to
docks. rusting and rotting.
Every effort in the world has been
made to use all these ships by getting
them into a trade that will pay under
private ownership. But it cannot be
done. The plan which President Hard
ing knows to be the only practicable
and sensible one, will through his bill
give the necessary aid and assistance
to private lines to keep all the ships III
operation and cost less than they are
costing now with only small portion
in USE"
"Why don't these men want this
plan?' asked Jack.
81 don't know, Jack. unless they
ismply don't understand it. l know
the farmers in California want this
plan. Between fifty and one hundred
million dollars was lost in California
during the last season because the
farmers couldn't get ships to carp
their products. They want transporta-
ton and they want it in American
ships.
Some opponents of the plan have
said it is unfair because it taxes the
many for the few. That is not true
when we look at it carefully for we
must remember that it taxes all of us
so that EVERYBODY MAY BENEFIT
through the extension of our foreign
trade and providing ships to help our
navy in case OF war. Representative
James w. Hustled of New York has
said this very thing and added that
that it is one OF the fundamental prln-
ciples which has brought the present
greatness OF the United States.

trip and can see the sandman creep
