called by its proper name. There
fore, IN the Merchant Marine Act,
the Congress provided for the pay
ment of subsidies for construction
and for operation.
Construction subsidies were de-
signed to meet the cheaper cost of
building abroad-to take up the diff
ference between what a ship owner
in the United States must pay for a
new vessel here as against the lower
foreign price. The subsidy paid
for operation was designed to put
the American operator closer to
parity with his foreign competitor.
The latter pay far less wages, less
subsistence, and generally less for
operation.
Under the operating differential
subsidy plan, the commission has
thus far granted long-term subsidies
to six companies for approximately
$4,000 900 per year. These lines are
operating SO subsidized ships. Seven
other companies, on a temporary
oASoANy 0eaoAo, OJCI dCC % olllkJS WIllC1l
receive approximately $4,000 900 per
year. The latter are negotiating
long-term subsidies but among
other requirements they must meet
are commitments for new construc-
ton within a specified time.
Before he can obtain a subsidy,
an operator must show the commits
sion real justification in fact for
the funds he claims are necessary
to meet his competitor on a parity
basis. The same is true in construc-
ton differential subsidy payments
Under the Merchant Marine Act
OF 1896 the commission is also au-
thorized to construct new vessels
for its own account. These ships
are ultimately to be sold or char
tered to private operators who can
qualify as responsible operators
under the law. At the present time,
the commission has 81 ships under
construction. 1t presently will make
awards for perhaps 10 more. This
exceeds the total number built
during the eight years the 1928 act
was in effect.
The commissions own engineers

q cadet system for training mer-
chant officers. This gives the young
men OF America an opportunity to
follow q career at sea. Despite the
deterioration Of our merchant fleet,
the commission has had concrete ev-
idence that the fascination of the
sea for American boys continues at
q healthy level. In the short time
since the cadet system was installed
the commission has received some
$4,000 applications for enrolment.
Applicants Of High Type.
And I would like to tell you a little
story which indicates the kind of
boys to be found among these appn-
cantS.
There recently applied for enroll
ment = healthy young lad in his
latter teens. He passed the mental
examination and all physical tests
with the exception of his vision.
About that there was some question.
but at first it did not seem serious.
A re-examination was ordered and
on the day that he was to sail he
came to our New York office thrilled
with the idea that within two hours
he was to board ship and begin his
training to become a merchant off,
Ger.
He stood before the desk of the
young woman who had in her hand
the report from the United States
Public Health Service on the re-ex-
animation of his eyes. She hesi-
tated, knowing that what she would
say would probably be the greatest
disappointment the boy had ever
suffered. The report stated that his
vision was inadequate for sea duty.
She told him. He looked at her for
a moment, just a suggestion OF a
tear appeared in his ''yes, then he
smiled and said: We'll, that will
give somebody else q chance"
There are many lads made Of the
same stuff among those $1,000 appI-
cants and it is upon them that the
hope of reviving the American mer-
chant fleet must rest, and from what
I have seen that hope will not be
in vain.
And finally I would like to bring

cement the tie between North and
South America, to encourage friend
liness, neighborliness and a healthy
trade in commerce which would fol-
low closer relations. And among
these projects stands as q concrete
example of our desire to cultivate
the arts Of peace between the Amer
icas, the Good Neighbor Fleet.
These ships carrying passengers and
cargo to the East coast of South
America sail every two weeks from
New York the year round. They
provide service never before
equaled by American ships on this
route.
Already the S. s. Brazil has been
greeted with rare enthusiasm at
Rio de Janeiro, Santos, Montevideo
and Buenos Aires. The spirit in
which the inaugural sailing has
been received by our friends to the
south attests to their appreciation
Of, and interest in, this undertak-
ing. And it is the sincere hope of
the commission that as time goes
on the success of this venture, both
materially and culturally, will make
necessary the addition of more ships
to the line
have covered, in this brief ad-
dress, some of the high points in
the work of the commission. It Is
our earnest hope to inspire more
interest, critical and otherwise, in
the work of the commission and
in the problems Of the merchant
marine.
received a letter the other day
asking if criticism of the commits

answer is Yes" We are engaged in

to American foreign trade and to
American national defense. these
men sought the answers to three
questions. The first was, What do
we need? The second was, How do
we get it? And the third was, What
will it cost?
That study was completed and
published a year ago the 10th of
next month and upon the findings
and recommendations it contained,
the commission has based its present
policy, which is, in substance, the
construction of so ships a year for
10 years. This program is designed
to provide an orderly and systematic
replacement of a fleet, most of
which was built at the same time
and is therefore approaching the
scrap pile at the same time. This
program will also tend to stabilize
the shipbuilding industry, which,
because of the hundreds of thou
sands of men employed and the
millions of dollars of materials used,
is of large Importance in the Ma
tons economy.
But in short, 1t can be said that
the commission is attempting to
restore the American flag to its
proper place among the maritime
nations of the world 1t is engaged
in the task of building up a fleet
to serve the country both in peace
and in war, should war come, COM
mensurate with the position of the
United States as a world power.
Operators Funds Limited.
To do that, a series of major
operations have had to be performed
upon the industry. The commis-
sion's study, for instance, disclosed
that II subsidized ship operators
had among them less than it costs
to build single liner such as the
commission now has under con-
struction at Newport News, Va, to
take the place of the old Leviathan
But the remedy for such a condition
was not to be found in the previous
scheme known as mail pay. Presi-
dent Roosevelt had decided that
that subterfuge should be aban-
doned and that subsidy should be

to your attention the Inauguration
OF q new steamship service, which
may in future years be regarded as
one Of the most important under
takings Of this Government In in
ternational affairs. I refer to the
Good Neighbor Fleet of the Ameri-
can Republics Line. Last year the
commission purchased the three
largest turbo-electric liners ever
built In the United States-the Cali
fornia, Virginia and Pennsylvania
More than $2,000,0 900 were spent
In equipping them for service
between New York and the east
coast Of South America. They were
renamed the Uruguay, the Brazil
and the Argentina. The first of
these ships sailed from New York
October 8, the second a week ago
last Saturday, and the third leaves
New York this coming Saturday.
On the first sailing was an official
mission representing the United
States Government. Its head was
Ambassador Breckenridge Long, as
signed to this special mission by
President Roosevelt.
The purpose of this new service
is to promote and facilitate trade
between the Americas, to promote
travel and the good will and friendly
relations which follow.
Aid to Monroe Doctrine.
We are all familiar with the
Monroe Doctrine which is the
fundamental policy of the United
States toward the other countries
of the Western Hemisphere. In re-
cent years, greedy eyes have looked
upon us and our neighbors to the
south. There has been economic
and political penetration attempted
by the totalitarian states. There
have been attempts to undermine
the common bond of friendship be-
tween North and South America
and there have been gross attacks
upon the theory and practice of
democracy emanating from lands
across the sea.
To the end that these may not
succeed, your Government has un-
dertaken numerous projects to
