Nobody was injured, but several of
the windows were shattered and some
damage was done to the building.
Charles S. Wilson, the American
minister, expresses the belief that the
explosion was due to a bomb. The
fact that this part of the legation was
without lights and that no one was
there at the time seems to indicate
that the perpetrator of the outrage
had no intention Of killing anyone.

THE PROPOSED SHIP SUBSIDY

10 aid the average citizen to cor
rect understanding of President Hard
ing's plan for ship subsidy, or bonus,
under which it is proposed practically
to. give away our entire feet Of mer-
chant vessels with an added annual
cash bonus, the following summary Of
the main facts is given: 49,.
The merchant feet owned by the
government numbers LAS steel YES
sells and 276 wood and concrete vessels.
AS to the character of these vessels,
James A. Farrell, President of the
United States Steel Corporation, in an
address May, 1921, said:
''The steel ships were well construct
ed and with few exceptions compare
favorably with the work of the best
builders. :. Our steel ships are
fine. samples Of the skill of American
mechanics
These vessels have received the 100
Al classification from Lloyd's regis
ter Of shipping, which means that they
are up to the full standard of ships
built in British yards.
/ These ships were offered for sale on
February Fl, and bids are to close on
March IA. AS to the advisabi1ity OF
selling the ships at this time, there is
the testimony of Chairman Lasker of
the Shipping Board last July, who
| said:
,"You cannot give a ship away to-
day. I mean that literally, if man
must pay the cost Of operation.'
In the same hearing J. B. Smull, one
Of Chairman Lasker's experts, said:
''There is no possibility of selling
boats today at any price,
| Chairman Madden of the House Ap-
preparations Committee declared last
August "there is no chance to sell the
ships now. ST.
A newspaper publication based on
an announcement Of the president of
the Emergency Fleet Corporation, says
the government expects to net $780,
600, 900, or an average Of $40 ton,
from the sales, which is less than one
tenth of their cost and one-third or
ope-fourth Of their value in normal
times. # :.
| The contracts for purchase payments
are to run fifteen years.
| A direct cash subsidy Of 100000, 900
annually IS proposed under President
Harding's plan, which in fifteen years
would amount to $45O, 0oo, 900, or $780,.
0O0, 900 more than the proposed con
tract price Of the vessels. The bonus
would be paid twice as rapidly as the
purchase payments accrued, so that the
purchasers would really be paying
nothing, and at the same time receiving
q bonus for operating the ships.
There is also q tonnage tax bonus
Of $4,000, 1000 annually, q proposed re.
duction Of income taxes on shipping
corporations equal to 5 per cent the
value Of goods shipped under the Amer
