Rise and Fall Of U. S.
Sea Power Is Faced

then as yet developed our great iron
industry. nor our steel industry.
which followed later.
Our dominance on the seas lay
during the days OF the wooden ship.
where we had the same advantage OF
propinquity OF raw material TO the
seAeoast that Britain had subsequent
ly when iron ships were mrs, de-
yeloped.
In addition to these very eompell-
ing reasons America required all the
borrowed capital she could get. par
tieularly for the development OF her
railroads.
These roads were built as a result
OF the encouragement given by gov
ernment subsidies OF land grants and
they formed the arteries through
which the wealth OF the central aud
western portions OF our country
poured.
Europe Carried Our Products.
Europe loaned US sums required in
hundreds OF millions OF dollars: and.
being their debtors. we could always
be assured she would send us her
ships to carry the products with
which we were TO discharge our
obligations.
In order TO insure the development
Of our infant industries. America
adopted a system OF high tariffs for
the product OF factory, mine and
farm alike. Thus. American ships
had to be built by the highest paid
labor in the world and operated by
crews receiving high wages.
None would have American stand
ards OF living lower than they are;
but the insurmountable handicap
caused thereby to American shipping
built and operated by protected labor
in competition with foreign ships is
obvious.
Thus, briefly outlined. is the his
torical background OF the American
merchant marine in 1914, when the
world war began. At that time
America possessed in all the seas OF
the world a total Of Is passenger and
combination passenger and cargo
ships, compared to something over
ESQ for Great Britain.
Pigmy Compared to Britain.
We had a total OF all types OF sea
going steel and iron ships Of 900 900
gross tons, compared to l8,O0O,000
gross tons for Great Britain, exclu-
sive of its colonies.
Let us suppose that in the world
war Britain and its allies had no
need for our products, but could
have obtained them on better terms
in their own colonies or elsewhere.
Our first thought then would be how
could we have disposed Of the sur
puses we would have had and which
would have bankrupted manufacturer
and farmer alike had they been per-
mitted to back up at home.
We could only have disposed Of
these surpluses if we had ships Of
our own wherewith to carry them to
the neutrals of the world. We did
not begin to have a tithe of the ships
necessary to carry small percentage
OF that surplus.
Fortunately for us, Great Britain
and its allies, in the conduct of the
war before our entry, as after, need
ed all the surplus of products we
could supply and demanded ever in

Washington, June 4.-Unless con-

patent office, no patents can be is-
sued for the last week of June or
the first three weeks of July, it was
learned at the patent office.
This same situation came up last
year and congress granted q defi-
cheney appropriation in time so there
was no lapse. Officials believe the
matter again will be taken care of.
The patent office issues approximate
ly 1000 patents weekly.

Attack on Farm Aid

simply happens that the farmers can
cooperate, but cannot make use of
the corporate form of organization.
Both sorts of organization are prop
erly subject to governmental regu-
lation for the protection of the
public.
Refers to Price Fixing.
"To consider intelligently the sub
ject OF cooperation among farmers
one must comprehend the vast diff
ferences between agricultural and
manufacturing industry. A compa-
ratively few men, if they desired,
could fix the price OF steel by a SIM
pie, single order; and, if there should
be over-production, could limit the
rate of output or entirely close down,
in order that the supply might not
overwhelm the selling agencies and
disastrously demoralize the market.
Even though the farmers should be
able to, and unwisely attempt, to
fix an unfair price for some COM
modify, they could persist i'll doing
so for only a short time, because
they have neither the credit to carry
their products nor the ability to con-
troll their production, which would
be absolutely necessary and, which
are so easily accomplished in the
manufacturing industries. Nobody
will ever be in a position to COM
lmand all, or any great part of the
millions of farmers of this vast coun-
try to limit their production, and so
the outcome of any holdup, price
fixing farmers selling agencies would
be such crush to realize on the
attractive price that the selling agen-
cy would be swamped."

Milk the Food for Adults.

DR.. 2. V. McCollum, Of Johns
Hopkins University, says:
milk Is our greatest protective
food, and its use must be Increased
instead of diminished. The liberal
use Of milk has made US what we
are. No family has the right to pur-
chase any meat until each member
has at least pint Of milk daily, and
this regard as below the optimum.
Milk is just as necessary for the
maintenance Of health in the adult
as in the young. l have sought in
vain for several years for dat
which was not only Of character
which could support growth in a
young animal, but which would
maintain an adult in state Of
health over prolonged period.
81 am convinced that we should
adhere throughout life to such diets
as will induce normal growth in n
child Of three to five years If we
would maintain the highest degree
Of physical well-being of which We
are capable. Let me repeat in clos
ing that the dairy industry has made
us what we ore, and that any fur
ther reduction in our consumption
Of milk and rs products will be re-
flected in lowering OF our stand
ards Of public health and eflciency.'
