s. How are we going to pay for

These struck me as being fair
questions at the time they were
asked, and the more I consider
them the better like them. They
are questions that every American
taxpayer has a right to have an
swered. And by answering them
l think we can cover the entire
situation.
The first question naturally
arises BECAUSE as a result of the
demands Of the world war America,
having no merchant ships to speak
of. had to build them. Without
counting the cost in money, the
Shipping Board. having been call
ed on TO furnish the ships. asked
Congress to create the Emergency
Fleet Corporation and. through

THE GHOSTS LAID.
1t was the abrupt and startling
appearance Of one Of the spectral
illuminations that forced sthe au.
thorities to act and reveal the
source Of the weird mystery Of
light and sound, of silence and
darkness. The light was seen in
the cellar. a glow such as no
lantern ever gave forth, yet not
like a flame. There was a spectral
aspect to It and there were fumes
that stirred the nerves of the most

after brief questioning were COM

bodies. The securities found In
the kitchen among the debris
were placed in the station house

But the specialists who exam.
ined theA-three patients found no

conference all were released.
Charles and Jane Mellen hurried

pride in her voice, assumed all re-
sponsibility for all the conditions

a good mental grasp on public
questions and world conditions,
put half a dozen questions to me
which. In my opinion, were so fair
and so representative of tho at
titude of many Americans on this
subject that / shall use them as
the basis of a survey of our mer-
chant marine problem
In answering them I hope to
impress upon the mind of the read
ers Of this article the necessity
for at least a discussion of Amer
tca's position with regard to world
commerce, to the end that they
may, in either supporting or op-
posing our efforts to bring about
the passage of a ship subsidy bill,
know what they are talking about.
SIX PERTINENT QUESTIONS.
These questions were put to me
by one who had feeling that we
should have a ship subsidy, but
whose thoughts We're still indef-
mite as to the precise reasons why
aid to American ships was neces-
sary. Here are the questions:
]. Why cannot the United
States Government operate ships

8. How will the average Ameri
The Washington times., 1922-09-10

The answer to this question is
that we do not. This question i'm
plies that the ship owners are to
be the sole beneficiaries under the
proposed ship subsidy bill. They
will receive benefits to the extent
that they viii be put on an even
footing with our nearest compet-
itor, Great Britain, whose ad-
vantages lie in cheaper cost Of
ship construction and cheaper
in operating ships. While we are
helping the ship owners we are
also helping the workers in the
shipyards and the workers aboard
ship. =

American steamship owners were
operating their ships under foreign
flags because Of the many re-

But Murphy and his men were
in no mood for argument or arbi-

spinster, sweeping her out OF their
way In their rush, and for a min.
ute were lost in the darkness
within. Then from the windows,
the watchers caught the quick,
