Government is operating 400 Of these
steamers, and the board is losing $780,
O00, 1000 per year in its operations.
Moreover, the board is building no new
vessels, and scarcely keeping the old
ones in repair.
The ship subsidy is designed to in
duce private Americans to buy and run
the Shipping Board vessels. It will
get the Shipping Board out of bust
ness. The amount paid to American
ship operators will equalize the higher
wages they have to pay to American
crews.
The subsidy will be far less than the
losses which the Shipping Board now
sustains. Payments the first year will
amount to $4,000, OOO-a saving of
$35,000,0 900 annually to the govern
ment.
The ship subsidy will enable the
government to recover part Of the bill
lions it put in ships. Without the
subsidy they must be sold abroad for
nominal rates, or strapped.
The subsidy will put an American
merchant marine on the seas at last.

OUR CLAIM

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Wadsworth will soon sail for Paris to
represent the United States at a con-
ference to consider German payments
for the cast of the armies of occupa-
ton. The allied governments have &C.
knowledged that the American claim
for payment is to be treated on an
equality with their own. The Ameri-
can forces on the Rhine have cost
about $30,OO0,0 900 to date, all of which
constitutes a preferred claim against
Germany under the terms of the Yer
