Thai something sbodd be don to render it possible to have enough ocean traTers- Tg snips to carry our foreign trade on ships bearing the American flag, seems emmentJy desiraUe. That a natkw ae! rich a tfa United States, with as huge a ! foreign trade as it has. should remain for 1 decade dependent on foreign ship to' carry off it surplus products, and back tbe thing w get from abroad, seems; Strang, yet such ie oar present condition. Every great industry in this country baa grown marveJousiy in the past forty- year but our merchant marine en gaged in our foreign trade. In ieS0, with a foreign commerce) only about one Kith as large as it now is. w had 2.733,396 registered tormag engaged ineur foreign trade, owned by citizen of tn United State sailing under the stars and strips. In 1904 we had bat 888, 128 registered under the American flag, showing a decfine in the 44 years of !. 490.768 tons. Wf are now paying freight to foreign ship owners ennui Hy $ 1 50,000.000. and to "our own ships- ens tenth as much, or $15,000,000. In 1810 American owned ships carried SI per cent, in 1861 65 percent and now but 10 par cent of our exports "and anporta. These foreign ship are built in foreign land by foreign labor, operated by for eign labor. The office they keep in our ports to collect the annual tribute of $160. 000.000 from us are operated by alien manager and the clerical work is per formed by English. French. German. IuSm and Japanese penmen. Because the higher wage -paid in this country it cost more to build ship in this country than elsewhere in the world and our seamen are paid more, which enables our rivals for ocean trade to carry good cheaper than oor shipown ers can. In addition to thee advantages, th governments of Europe pay their ship owner large bounties and subsidies. la 1901 these bounties aggregated $28. 770.160. That year England paid $5.- 636.612. Eranc $8,643,423 and Japan $1942.296 and the other nation $10. 447.829. Th United State pays neith er bounty or cubsidy. , Tbe proposition now before Congress is to meet oor foreign rival for the carrying of our exports and import by bounties andsubsidies. We must either do thijl or be content to dtpend on foreign ship to carrrour produce to market and ear import and continue to pay $150,000, 000 a a tribute for the privilege of trad ing with th outsidtworid.
