Representatives.
The close Of the general debate
on the shipping bill finds the OPP
ponents of the bill floundering and
without a single definite construc-
tive suggestion made or offered.
CRITICISES DELAY.
Men who are anxious to be classed

wholly obstructive standpoint and
unprogressive attitude. Other men
who pride themselves on being op,
posed to Government ownership or
management try to find excuses for
Government ownership or manage.
ment Of the merchant marine.
No opponent of the bill has even
attempted to answer the very peril
nent inquiry propounded by the
President as to what we are to do
with the merchant marine which we
have builded at so enormous a cost.
The position of those in opposition,
who offer no alternative to the plan
proposed, must be somewhat en-
barrassing. in view of the fact that
the attitude they take is exactly that
which best pleases our foreign ship
ping rivals.
or course, these gentlemen are not
to blame because their drifting, do
nothing attitude is the one that gives
the most comfort to our British,
German, and other rivals in COM
mercial shipping. Nevertheless
that fact, which cannot be denied
ought to afford food for thought to
those who are opposing the pending
bill.
The debate thus far has empha
sized these undisputed facts: That
we have Government-owned mer.
chant marine of some 1 1,400 steel
ships; that 1t was costing us about
$50, ,OOO, 900 a year to operate such
of these ships as we could find car
goes for up to the time this Ad
ministration took charge, withou,
including any estimate of deprecia
ton: that while the present Admin
istration has brought about econ
omies in the sum of nearly 800,
000, 900 a year it Is still costing us
about $50,000,0 to operate about
One-third of the fleet, while the bal
ance lies at anchor rapidly deterior
ating; that Notwithstanding every
effort has been made to utilize
more of our ships and get them al
into paying trade under private
ownership, this has been impossi
ble.
SUBSIDY ONLY SOLUTION.
The fact that it has been impossi
tie. Notwithstanding all the efforts
that have been made by the Gov
ernment is conclusive proof of the
fact that America, with all her cap
ital. genius and energy. canno,
build up a fleet under private own
ership to compete in a large way

and assistance. The aid and as
sistance proposed in this bill will

unsatisfactory partial utilization of
the fleet by the Federal Govern
ment and that the total charge
upon the Treasury. if the plan pro-
posed by the bill works success
fully, can never be in excess vf the
sum now being spent by the Gov
ernment In an unsatisfactory way,
and with a comparatively small
fleet actually In commission.
One OF these unquestioned facts,
the question that stares us squarely
in the face, Is What are we going
to do about it?" and the opponents
OF the bill SO far have not answered
that question. One gentleman on the
Republican side has evaded it by
suggesting that whatever the merits
OF the legislation may be, II is not
politically safe for him to vote for
1t. One gentleman on the Demo-
cratic side endeavored to evade the
direct issue by the puerile suggestion
of further investigation and a new
Shipping Board.
The bug-a-boo OF the Steel Trust
and the Standard Oil has been trotted
out as an excuse for non-action, and
one Democratic orator arose to the
height Of absurdity by trying to prove
that American wages are not higher
than foreign wages and American
shipping requirements no more ex.
pensive than those Of our foreign
competitors.
But out of it all the Presidents g
challenge still stands. Shall we
pursue a policy Of obstruction: shall
we embark upon a policy of destruc-
ton, or shall me adopt a policy of
construction?
We can continue to pay out large
sums Of public moneys without
definite accomplishment until the
fleet shall fall into complete decay.
We might sink or give away the
fleet at once, or sell a part OF 1t
for a song to our foreign rivals.
Either of these policies would be
applauded abroad.
Or we can. and we should. adopt
a policy, which, costing no more.
IL 1t shall cost as much as the
present policy. bids fair to give us
commercial fleet second to none
in the world. and a goodly salvage
from the investment we have al.
ready made-a salvage sufficient
to pay all costs of operation for
years to come.
This Administration was called
to authority by the American peo
pie with the direct and emphatic
mandate to carry out constructive
policies. We are confronted with
one of the most important Of the
problems that mandate presents to
us. Shall we take an obstructive
or reactionary attitude, or shall we
move forward along constructive
lines as the American people expect
us to do? That Is the question pre-.
sented in the Shipping Bill.
The Washington times., 1922-11-26

explained this is necessary to keep
these ships under the American flag,
particularly oil tarkers. which are
vitality needed in war, and that there
can be no discrimination In law
against the owners Of any vessel.
Madden, of Illinois, chairman OF the
Appropriations Committee, declared
he Is opposed to all forms of subsi.
dies and would not vote for this bill
II there was any other way to build
up an American merchant marine.
Moreover, he said, the subsidy will
cost less than the government
losses now.
