1t is generally thought that the
coming Congress must deal decisively
with the question of the merchant
marine. The problem would be much
sjmplified If the fleet could be sold
at reasonable prices with iron-clad
provision for continuance of the
present services. But supposing this
cannot be done, or is not desired, COM
petent authority estimates that an
expenditure of about $500, 100000 for
replacement would be required if the
fleet is successfully to meet foreign
competition. The sentiment Of patriot
ism Is not powerful enough to cause
American shippers to patronize
American shipping at financial loss to
themselves.

Suggestions have been made re-
Gently that American railroads should
be encouraged to purchase overseas
shipping lines and operate them, just
as the Canadian railroads operate
shipping lines. There is nothing in
Che laws of the land to prevent this.
The only check is the fact that the
railroads hesitate to invest in ships,
fearing that they may prove losing
proposition. If Congress can, at its
coming session, take steps looking to-
ward ship aid, the railroads might be
encouraged to erfter upon the owner
ship Of vessels and operate them in
overseas commerce. The railroads
would prove admirable feeders for
their own ships, and should be in a
position to make the shipping lines
pay more effectively.
Sea power is indispensable to the
United States. The American people.
with the great development Of their
industries and agriculture, have made
it impossible and unwise in the ex.
treme for the Nation to hazard lack
of adequate naval strength or a lack
Of merchant marine.
