Also. the President of the United
the Steamboat Inspection Bureau to
the United States Maritime Commits
sion.
Replacements Mandatory.
The third classification embraces
certain principles included In bill
which previously introduced. These
include positive mandate for
long-range program for replacements
and additions TO our merchant feet.
This mandate guarantees that the
American merchant marine will have
new, modern ships, even If the Gov
eminent Is forced to build them and
then hire them out to private op-
orators. The only reason for shipping
subsidies is the fact American labor
cost is higher than foreign labor COST
The Government and the seamen are
equally interested In knowing that
the subsidy reaches its intended bene-
flciary. l submit that labor regula-
tions rightfully belong In the Depart
ment OF Labor. These labor provisions
would not only include enlargement
OF fair wages, but would also include
regulations as to working conditions,
hours of labor, and number OF sea-
men required to properly and safely
man q vessel.
also believe that the provision
which requires all ship officers to be
members of the United States Naval
Reserve will meet with the hearty ap-
proval Of every one in my radio au-
dience.
At the present time a considerable
amount OF insurance ON our merchant
ships is underwritten In foreign coun-
tries. These merchant ships are naval
auxiliaries. Insurance underwriters
naturally have access TO blueprints
and specifications Of ships insured by
them. My amendment would prohibit
foreign insurance underwriting. This
will protect the plans Of our ships from
foreign observation. The fourth class
OF provisions In my amendment meet
certain recommendations made by a
special committee of the Senate, which
investigated existing ocean mail con-
tracts. These include the creation OF
a new independent establishment for
the administration Of direct SUBJ
sides, and a provision calling for
uniform system of bookkeeping In the
shipping industry. and for Govern
ment inspection Of books. files and
records In the Offices of shipbuilders
and ship operators. The measure also
contains administrative provisions to
guard against the recurrence of evils
disclosed by the Senate Investigating
Committee.
In closing, it Is well that my listen
ers be advised as to whether any un-
reasonable burden would be imposed
upon them through the enactment of
the measure I introduced today. The

struction costs, higher American op-
Grating costs, and subsidies paid to
foreign steamship companies by their
governments. Existing ocean mail
contracts would be terminated on
March 81, 1887. It is believed that
this period of almost a year will per-
NIT equitable adjustments of the
present contracts, and will provide
enough time to study carefully the
needs for direct subsidy payment.
All present ocean mail contractors
would be given the opportunity of
negotiating settlement Of their con-
tracts with the United States Maritime
Commission. II settlement cannot
be agreed upon. any dissatisfied con-
tractor Is given the privilege of seek
ing redress In the court Of claims.
Includes Western Shipyards.
The second classification embraces
numerous basic principles contained
in the bills offered by Senator Cope
land and Representative Bland-in-
cluding recognition OF the desir-
ability Of having commercial ship
yards on the Pacific Coast. To that
end, a 8 per cent greater cost would
be allowed for the building of new
vessels on that coast. This additional
allowance is necessary to cover the
higher cost of materials and labor
on the West Coast. A heavy penalty
is provided against any combination,
understanding, agreement or arrange
ment which would prevent full. free
and secret competition In submitting
bids for Government contracts. The
measure would include also linita-
ton Of profits that can be earned
by shipbuilders. This limitation is an
all construction cost.
Referring now to the ship operator
my listeners all know Of the risk
and hazards of marine operations.
This has been taken into considera-
ton in allowing a possible profit Of
10 per cent, which is slightly greater
than for ordinary business enterprises.
If operating expenses should decline
after the Government has agreed
upon the amount which Is to be paid
as an operating differential. or. If
some other fact would result in a
steamship company earning more than
10 per cent profit per year, the tax
payers would share in the higher earn
ings. All profits earned by steam
ship company in excess of 10 per
cent per annum would be shared with
the Government on a $3.50 basis.
The whole Nation is keenly alive to
the urgent need for a safety-of-l
at-sea program. The first duty Of
the United States Maritime Commits
sion includes a positive direction that
all new vessels shall be designed to
afford the best and most complete
protection for passengers and crew
against fire and all other marine perils.

some of the features of my amend
ment, which I think are of interest
to every one of you. Before doing
SO, however, / wish to assure my lis
teners that the delay in Congress
since President Roosevelt urged
change in our merchant marine laws
does not indicate a lack of apprecia-
ton by members of Congress on the
subject There have been differences
of opinion as to how to proceed. The
members of both houses of Congress
know that previous legislation has not
attained its objectives. We have
taken time for study and deliberation
with the hope that We can pass
good bill. l believe a careful anal
ysis of the amendment introduced to-
day will prove that fact to the salts
faction of each of you-a
The provisions of my amendment
fall into four classifications. First,
the recommendations made by Presi-
dent Roosevelt are fully carried out.

Funds Assuring
Early Completion
$1,000, 900 Item for Caro-.
ina-Virginia Highway
Retained

WASHINGTON, D. c., June /.
Completion of the Appalachian
parkway without delay because of
lack of funds has been assured.
Conferees on the public roads
bill have included the amendment
of Senators Bailey and Reynolds
to appropriate $10,0O0,OOO for
parkways, 100000 of which
will be used on the Virginia-North
Carolina project, and 100000
on the Natchez Trace parkway in
Mississippi, Alabama and Tennes-
see.
In North Carolina the parkway
will extend from the Virginia line
via Roaring Gap, Glendale Springs,
Deep Gap, Blowing Rock, Linville
Falls, South of Asheville, but
nearly into the Smoky Mountains
National Park.
While it is now expected that
both branches of congress will
readily concur in the conferees'
report, it was due to the untiring
efforts of Rep. Lindsay Warren of
the first district, vice chairman of
the house committee on roads, one
of the house conferees, that the
$10,000,000 parkway fund was
saved.

THOUGHTS OF
A FISHERMAN
By IKE WALTON

l wonder if Solomon loved any
one of his wives as much as / love
Sallie. / don't believe he did. Here
are my reasons:
/. If he had, the record ought
to have said so. We are simply
told that he had plenty of them,
but there is no rhapsodic account
of true love affair with any
one of them. Of course he took
on considerably in his Songs of
Solomon" but that is not the sort
of love Pm talking about.
2. Spread out love among a
thousand wives and it is apt to
be pretty thin.
3. Christianity gives true love
quality higher than was known
before Christ. Julius Caesar was
one of the bravest and most faith
full lovers in pagan times toward
his first wife but when she died
he started philandering and end
ed up with Cleopatra; which
shows that even as strong a char
acter as he did not have the real
thing. 49, ,,
q. Few Orientals have the
Western conception of high love,
They are what Othello said OF
himself-"Like the base Indian,
threw pearl away richer than
/, all his tribe"
5. Solomon let some of his
wives shape his religion. If he had
had the real. thing, they would
have respected his faith.
Now what is "true love" high
love-" the "real thing?
1t is primarily the very peak
and zenith of the development OF
Life. 1t may have its original
germ in protoplasm but 1T has
grown until the power and the
beauty and the sweetness and the
persistence of it is stronger than
Gibraltar, lovelier than the sun
| light on Mt. Everest, more. sac
charine than the distilled essence
of the honey of Hymettus, and
more enduring than the Pyramids
of Egypt. 1t is what makes the
soul shine. 1t. causes willing sac
Irifice. 1t cures wounds with tears
| 1t dissolves the stony heart. IN a
solvent more potent than aqua
regia. 1t lightens labor, shortens
melancholy, assuages grief, quick
ems penitence, controls temper
eases heartache, redeems error
forgives sin, prompts mercy, IN
spires courage and rises above
| the merely physical condition,
even as the lark at morn scars
until lost in the rays of the rising
sun. Any. normal animal can proc,
reate, but it is God in man that
makes him love.

of active religion.
His suggestions for a sound
method of finding satisfaction
were: The laboratory approach to
religion, as found in the seventh
chapter and seventeenth verse OF
John, the approach of doing and
knowing. But this can only be
accomplished when the expert
menter enters with an open mind,
free from prejudice against reli-
gion and church, throwing away
intellectual doubts, trivial and
petty sins, such as envy and Cos
sip, and facing the facts with a
clear view and an open mind.
Then, it is necessary to follow
instructions implicitly, and no
greater book of instruction can
be found than the Bible. This
may be difficult, but it is neces-
sary, and lastly, practice it, or it
will do no good. Humans, as well
as flowers and shrubs grow under
cultivation. The most beautiful
flowers are those that have been
extensively cultivated, and the
most beautiful souls are those that
have been cultivated.
Thus, stated DR.. Board, to ac-
uuire a satisfying moral and spir-
itual outlook on life, my recon-
mendation is that you try the lab
oratory experiment.
The meeting closed with bene-
diction by DR.. Jos. R. Sewer.

SISTER MARY'S MENU
BY MARY E. DAGUE
NEA Service Stan Writer

A MORNING in the garden con-
n vinces me that if we'd put
more imagination into our veg
etable plates they'd appeal to ev-
eryone more than they do. When
every vegetable tastes just like
the next one it's no wonder that
vegetables aren't as popular as
thew might be. And why should
they taste alike when they're SO
different? -,
Clever seasoning will help.
Spinach, Irish potatoes, eggplant
and many other bland vegetables
gain by the use of mushroom sea-
soning-mushroomS, mushroom
paste or mushroom catsup. .
A bit of onion or shallot is used
by the French in almost every
meat and vegetable dish they
cook. Our onion powder makes
it possible to get the taste with
out wasting part of an onion.
Cheese Also Seasons Well
Cheese is another seasoning
that does wonders for vegetables
in sauces, grated and sprinkled
over the top of the. dish or right
in the dish.
A fault of vegetable dinners
often is that they are served luke
warm. In my kitchen philosophy,
chilled dishes must be very cold
and hot dishes piping hot. Ar
range vegetables on a hot heat
resistant platter and finish their
cooking in a slow oven. Then
serve them on the same platter
and they will be invitingly hot,
even for second helpings.
Green peppers stuffed with a
mixture of rice and cheese, but.
tered caulif1ower and buttered
green peas make a fine picture
platter. If you want to serve
Hollandaise sauce with the cauli-
flower pass it in a separate sauce
boat for each person to help him.
