SUBSIDY IS ECONOMY

Nobody should be deceived into thinking that congress delay in acting on the mer- chant marine bill is saving the people of this country any money. On the contrary, it is costing the taxpayer more than the pro- posed subsidy would cost them. There is now an annual appropriation of fifty million dollars a year to the shipping board which must continue until a subsidy is granted or the ships otherwise disposed of The sub sidy, on the other hand, is in reality a loan fund upon which steamships may draw, butt which they must repay when they begin to show an earning above specified per cent. Besides, the subsidy is not direct burden upon the taxpayer but is supplied by di- version of a portion of the tariff receipts and by the paying into the fund of all sums set aside for the carrying of foreign mail. Congress, by delaying action, is in reality thwarting our commercial and maritime de- velopment and putting off to a later date the settlement of question that has long been urgent This is an injurious policy and based on no defensible grounds.
 Producers and shippers of the gulf states are especially affected by the success or Ialture or the SuDSlQy. 0lnce the SuDSlQy IS based on distance travelled, ships sailing for Europe from gulf ports receive more ben eft than ships sailing from north Atlantic ports. Producers within the rate influence of the Gulf ports therefore are placed on a parity with producers within the rate influ- ence of the north Atlantic ports. Gulf steamship lines can offer the same rates as competing lines. Added to this is a shorter rail haul with its approximately lesser cost, placing the Gulf shipper in a strong com- petitive position that he could not enjoy if the north Atlantic ports are permitted to resume their former dominance m the na- tion's foreign trade. Shippers, manufactur- CTS and producers in the gulf states owe it to themselves to direct the attention of their congressmen a1d senators to their conner cial need for the subsidy and to urge sup port of the measure.
 Already foreign vessels ars carrying an increasingly larger proportion of our import and export tonnage, and, when the influence of the shipping board is removed, will grad ually absorb the bulk of our tonnage, unless some adequate plan for protecting the Amer ican ship operator is adopted. Less than three weeks of the present congressional session remain. It is imperative and to the national advantage that this question come to a vote within that period, and that the vote be favorable

OUR RESERVE ARMY

The young men who constituted Americas national army of approximately four million will soon pass beyond the age of military service. Charts of the war department show that of more than three million men dis charged from the wartime army, up to January 1, 1920, little more than six hun dred thousand will be available for combat forces in 1925. In 1880 their number will be reduced to four hundred and twenty three thousand. One remarkable feature of the war departments records, which may be taken as an indication of the army's high physical standards and the care given to our soldiers while in the service, is the fact that of 3,128,670 officers and men examined for discharge to December 1, 1919, 2,931 ,560 were discharged without disability. The lesson to be drawn from the rapidity with which the soldier of today becomes unfit for active military duties tomorrow is the necessity for keeping the reservoir of fight ing strength filled by younger men with sufficient training to equip them for battle, should they ever be called on for national defense. This is the function of the or ganized reserves.

LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY GROWS

Much practical good results from the an- nual conferences held at Auburn by the Alabama Livestock Association. The twenty-seventh meeting is in session this week and is attended by experts in raising and marketing live stock. Great progress Tn the livestock industry of Alabama has been made in the past ten years, through the in-- troduction of purebred hogs and cattle, the building of model dairy barns, the establish ment of creameries and milk stations and the improvement in marketing systems. A real dairying industry, has arisen in Ala bama and the meat packing industry has been inaugurated with every promise of success.
 There has been fine team work in the progressive measures that have been taken. City and country have co-operated in the movement. Bankers and creamery opera ators have supplied farmers with purebred stock at cost. Chambers of commerce have purchased purebred stock for the farm boys, who in handling their hogs and calves have learned progressive and approved farming methods. Back of this cooperative spirit and the progress resulting from it have been the example and precept of the pioneer mem- bers of the Alabama Livestock Association and federal and state authorities.
