America On the Seas.

TN addressing the United States Chamber OF
i Commerce, Chairman Lasker, of the Shipping
Board. urged American business men to patronize
Shipping Board vessels in order that government
losses on the merchant marine venture may be
decreased. 1t may be supposed that if American
business received the service for the same
price from American ships that it does from for
eign lines, such urging would be needed
When the government started a merchant ma
wants to sell the goods OF his bureau he should
use arguments of business instead of wall of
losses that, If needed, would mean a virtual in
crease OF taxation on concerns already taxed
aplenty. 1t is as though in private bus-
ness stepped forth and said: 81 have an inefficient
and already bankrupt concern. Please give me your
business that my bankruptcy won't be quite so
bad" The response to such a plea can be
imagined. 1t is not logical to suppose that Mr.
Laskers request will fare better.
No government project has been quite so nau-
seating in its failure the Shipping Board, with
the possible exception of the Railroad Administra-
ton. 1t has not failed for lack of money or we'll
paid executives Since its inception it has teemed
with hgh-priced experts in the spending OF money
Unless it comes down earth and acts like bus-
ness concern instead of charitable foundation, it
would seem to have future unless, indeed it
passes into history proverbial example of mis-
management.
So far as the creation of an American merchant
marine goes, there is real reason on the green
earth the blue sea why we should not regain
the shipping supremacy that belonged to US less
than seventy-hve years ago-in the era of the IA
nous Yankee clippers. American ships cost more
than foreign ships at that time; American sailors
were paid higher wages than foreign seamen. In
spite OF these facts, the American merchant marine
