DIRECT SHIPPING.
SUBSIDY PROPOSED.
Roosevelt Special Message
Urges Subterfuge Be
Terminated.
BY ]. RUSSELL YOUNG.

Adoption of direct subsidy system
for merchant vessels in place Of the
present plan of lending money to
shipbuildins and shipping companies
and additional financial assistance
through ocean mail contracts was pro-
posed to Congress today by President
Roosevelt.
In q special message the President
also recommended that the quasi-ju-
dicial and legislative duties Of the
present Shipping Board Bureau Of
the Department of Commerce be
transferred for the present 10 the In
terstate Commerce Commission. In
his opinion, the purely administrative
functions, such as information and
planning, ship inspection and the
maintenance of aids to navigation
should remain In the Department Of
Commerce.
In championing an American
Merchant Marine, the President de-
clared it to be one Of the most
firmly established traditions of this
republic, and reminded Congress that
during the first half Of the national
existence of America, 1t was q great
and growing asset, but since then
has declined in value and importance.
The time has come to square this
traditional ideal with effective per-
Torrance, the President said.
1t was pointed out by the Presi-
dent in advocacy of his plans for an
adequate merchant marine that there
should be sufficient ships. not only
to carry reasonable portion of our
foreign commerce, but to act in an
auxiliary capacity in the event Of
war. In this respect, he reminded
Congress that the lessons learned in
the last war should be remembered
Loans Held Failure.
Particularly does the President con-
slider the lending of money for ship
building as having proved failure.
He insists upon a direct subsidy. He
declared that there should be an
end to subterfuge and that If Con-
greSs decides it will maintain a rea-
sonably adequate American merchant
marine, he believes that it should be
called what he considers its right
name-a subsidy.
The President then went on to ex-
plain what he believed to be a

Inherited Stomach Of Girl, 10,
Placed Normally in Operation

fCopyrisht. 1885. by the Associated PressJ
FALL RIVER, Mass, March A.
Ten-year-old Alyce Jane McHenry's
inverted stomach and other misplaced
organs were put in their normal posi-
lions in an operation of more than
two hours duration at the Truesdale
Hospital today.
The whole replacement at once was
q surprise. DR.. Philemon E. Truesdale
said that when the situation became
apparent in all details on the operat-
ing table it was so grave that the en-
tire proceeding had to be gone
through at once.
He had anticipated that the process
might be slow, time and gravitation
letting the misplaced organs slide
down gradually to the abdomen.
Alyce was good patient THAT
Is. she appeared to stand the operation
well.
Her stomach, upside down, tucked
up under her shoulder, was only part
Of the misplaced abdominal organs.
1t was Ia her left chest cavity along
with all but feet Of her intestines,

also her spleen and her appendix.
Her liver was not misplaced.
Whether the operation is success"
DR.. Truesdale said, will depend en-
tirely on her recovery.
Just before anesthetics closed her
eyes Alyce was singing THE Man on
the Flying Trapeze."
The operation began shortly after
10 at the Truesdale Hospital, the work
being done by four surgeons headed
by DR.. Truesdale, who has previously
operated upon several similar cases.
Alyce,s case Is the most serious in
this list because she Is weaker than
the others. But ii strength was what
she needed most, her moments before
going under the anesthetic sleep were
favorable signs.
She slept well and so late that her
nurses at last had to awaken her.
When her surgeons came in to talk
to her to be sure Of her spirit she
greeted them with asmile and 4 song.

room on her stretcher, she covered

PATMAN PREDICTS
PASSAGE Of BONUS
Declares TWo-Thirds oil
House and Senate Will
Vote for Payment.
BY the Associated Press.

A prediction by Representative Pat
man, Democrat, of Texas that two
thirds of the House and Senate would
vote for q bonus payment bill
enough to override q presidential veto
was made today at the opening Of
congressional hearings on the 81 900. :
600 900 bonus issue.
Patman, the hYst witness before
the House Ways and Means Commit
tee, appeared aster Chairman Dough-
ton, Democrat, of North Carolina said
sessions would be held at night II
necessary to complete consideration
Of the bill by tomorrow.
Striking at criticism that his meas
ure, which proposes the issuance Of
new currency, is innationary, Patman
said:
This is not an infiationary bill.
There's no danger Of imitation.
Could Withdraw Currency.
He pointed out that under his plan,
if commodity prices rose too rapidly
or danger of imitation" appeared,
the Secretary of the Treasury could
withdraw other currency from circu-
lation as the bonus money was dis
tributed.
AS another argument, the Texan
said:
IF this bill were enacted, the cost
of relief would not be SO great. This
money would reach every nook and
Granny of the country. There would
be no delay and no chance or posi-
bility of graft.
Under this bill, the adjusted COM
pensation certificates could be paid
without bond issue, and without an
increase in taxes"
Supporters of the American Legion's
bonus bill, which does not contain
Patman's new currency provision, are
to be heard later. Conceding that
there had been some dispute among
those supporting the two bills, Patman
told the committee that he would be
glad to back any measure which
would carry out the purpose which we
had in mind"
Payment of the bonus comes first
with me-" Patman said. Everything
else is secondary. After these hear
ings are over, if everything which the
committee desires Is not in one bill,
I suggest the chairman of the COM
mittee introduce new bill.
There has been some difference
Of opinion over the method of pay
ment. 1t would be agreeable to me
to put both in the same bill and
submit it to the House.
THE issue is so well known that
I feel the House should be allowed
to choose"
As one reason for paying the bonus
certificates now, Patman estimated
that a veteran who had q 81, 900 Ger
tificate and who had borrowed fully
on it would get only $66 when the
certificate matured on January l..
l945.
1T is not right he argued, "for
the Government to cause the veteran
to lose the remaining half of his GER
tif1cate because of interest payments
on the first half which he borrowed.
If this is not paid now, the veteran
will have practically nothing left by
1916"
