to permit foreign vessels to control
foreign transportation of our pro-
ducts it may be interesting to learn
that nearly two and a half billion
tons is the amount of shipping built
in the world last year of which AZ per

Great Britain and Ireland. This coun

output since 1897. The Germans

cine
This Earth's a foolish place.
He'll bent it seems to drive,
And men upon its face
Unfortunately strive.
AS they have always gone
From scrap again to scrap,
They tend to go right on
And mutilate the map.
Folks say they always will
Because they're built that way.
1t s easier to Kill
Than in ACCORD to stay.
But now Inventions fight ~
So aids them to destroy.
A fear has come to blight
The old-timc battle JOY.
I he fear mans got so smart
With guns and planes and gas,
He'll have to change his heart
Or off the planet pass.
Poor man. he loathes the choice,
He wriggles to rebel.
He loves to raise his voice
And tell folks-Go to hell!
He loves to grab and gain.
He loves the good old rule.
1t gives him awful pain
To own hes been a fool,
He rovclod in his strength
And Worshippcd what he made.
And finds himself at length
OF his own tools afraid
He's torn with inward strife
Whether to take the count,
Or make his rule of life
The Sermon on the Mount.
Who would his debts escape,
His debtors must forgive;
Who would his life reshapc.
Must help his neighbor live.
Mans medicine is that.
He greets It with a frown.
And reaches for hiS hat.
And says it won't go down,
But that's the only cure
He'll take it some fine day,
Zen now by paths obscure
One secs him on the way.
He's got his fill of fight:
His oldtime point of view
He knows was never right.
He'll change it, or he's through
