SUBSIDIES PILED
UPON SUBSIDIES,


When reported to the House, the
Harding skip subeidy bill contained a
provision granting to shippers a fivc
rar cent rebate upon their income tax
es if they Would forward their car
goes in American ships-~an addi-
tional subsidy at Public cost. When
the members Of the Houes began
working Oh the bill, however, they
decided 70 eliminate this provision
which was too much for even a bunch
Of Congressman interested in patron
age distribution. The proposal serves
well; however, by way of illustrating
the true inwardness of the whole
ship subsidy plan. 1t is really Sc
fries of subsidies.
Take the materials that enter into
the ships-they are either imported
free from duty under bond, for use in
ship building, or they are native pro-
ducts upon which a heavy customs
duty is imposed. Then the builder
is given a monopoly in the coastwise
trade, in which none but American
built ships owned by Americans may
engage. At to foreign trade, the re-
strictions of the pending bill virtu-
ally turn back to the New England
ship-owner monopoly in ships under
the registry of the United States.
The ship-owner receives mail sub
ventions and then subsidies down to
the point where the vessels earn ten
per cent for their owners. The
tradesman who ships his cargoes in
these vessels also receives a rebate
on his incove taX--as proposed by the
original bill.
The practical gift of the ships built
by the government is merely an Incl
dent in the long run. The ship-build-
err, the ship-user, all will receive
gratuities at the hands of the govern
ment-and the people will pay the
bill.
American commerce desires and
should have an adequate merchant
marine to carry our goods throughout
the world. But we do not desire an
intolerable monopoly-a hot-house in
dustry, that could not sustain itself,
according to the Republican theory,
without such extraordinary conces-
cessions by the taxpayers.
Six of the thirty-seven amendments
that have been offered in the House
have carried, but the one amendment
that the country wants is a motion to
strike out the entire bill and write a
new merchant marine measure, based
upon some consideration and regard
for the public, and not designed to
build up fortunes for a few.-State

bodies from morgues and hospitals
to eat as food.

10000 Russians working for the relief
administration in the Samara dis

arduous work among the starving

he gave ample proof that the famine
sufferers did not try to seize him

declared, however. that a Russian
member of the A. Ri A, who died OF
typhus, was disinterred at night and
eaten by the crazed Inhabitants. This
gave rise to the report that MIR

TIMES EDITOR REFUTES RUMOR
 OF MARRIAGE

Since the return of the publisher of the Daily Times from an extended visit to the states he has been de luged with newspaper clippings and copies of newspapers from all parts of Alaska, containing the surprising information that while he was out side he had joined the benedicts and returned to Cordova with 8 bride. For the many very kind and complimentary things said of him in this connection the writer feels grate- ful and is truly appreciative, know ing that his journalistic brethren penned them with the best of inten- tions. Unfortunately, however, said brethren have been the victims of some practical joker There is no truth whatever in the reported mar riage.
 The first paper to publish this news was Editor Troy's Juneau Empire and since then practically every publication in the Territory has made a more or less extended mention of matrimonial bark hay ing been launched, in which the editor of this paper was supposed to be at the helm. Of course it is con soling to have nice things said of one while on this earth, even if they are not deserved, but there was no foundation in fact for the writeup. We most seriously object to the fra ternity taking advantage of our good nature to herald broadcast this untruth thus barring us from brows- ing in the garden where Cupid's ar rows are most likely to alight. We want 1t distinctly understood that there have been no nuptial knots tied onto the Times man that he is aware of while absent from his little old home town of rain and snow.
