THE arORXiyo OltEGOyiAN. FRIPAY, OCTOBER 22. 1915. 6 FEDERAL SHIP LIES This Is Varsity Six Hundred FAVORED BY M'ADDO Operation of Merchant Marine Even at Loss Advocated . "i by Cabinet Member. The Stylish Overcoat PACIFIC SITUATION CITED ' ' Eale of Mail Steamship Company's Vessels Influenced by Chance to Sell at Profit and Not by Seaman's Bill, Is View. BAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 21. In a plea for the creation by the Government of a naval auxiliary merchant marine, William G. McAdoo, Secretary of the United States Treasury Department, addressing today members of the San , Krancisco Commercial Club at a. lunch eon, said that if private capital can not afford to provide adequate steam ship service between Pacinc Coast points and the Orient, then the Govern ment should provide these facilities for the protection of the United States trade and prosperity. Secretary McAdoo was speaking with reference to the seamen's bill and the contention of the Pacific Mail Steam ship Company that the passage of the act forced them to discontinue business on the Pacific. Loss Weald Be AMwmed. Mr. McAdoo said steamship service from the Pacific Coast to the Orient is vital to the interests of the United States. "Suppose they cannot be main tained except at a loss." suggested the Cabinet member. "Must we then do without these facilities? I say no. "In those circumstances such service should be provided under our flag, and, If private capital cannot afford to pro vide it because it involves a. loss, then the Government should provide the service and take the loss for the gen eral welfare of all the people and for the protection of our trade and pros perity, especially when the vessels for such service become a part of the naval auxiliaries essential to the Na tional defense." Secretary McAdoo said if the shipping bill had been passed in the last Con gress the Pacific Mail ships would not have been transferred to the Atlantic, Sale Laid to Profit. "The shippinur board," he said. "would undoubtedly have bought those ' ships and kept them in the Pacific trade, where they are needed, and the interests of the Pacific Coast would have been saved from injury." Referring to the seamen's bill and the Pacific Mail. Mr. McAdoo said he had been told the seamen's bill was not the mainspring for the transfer of the Pacific: Mail vessels. "The Panama Canal act, and the fact the present abnormal rates for cargo space on the Atlantic, which made It possible for the Pacific Mall to sell its ehips at more than their real value, was. I understand, the true cause of their sale," said the Secretary. Subsidies Not Probable. The shipping board as suggested by Mr. McAdoo would consist of the Sec retary of the Navy and the Secretary of Commerce as members ex-officio and three members to be selected by the President. The board would have power to arrange for the issuance of through bills of ladtng between the railroads and steamship lines operating under the American flag in the foreign trade. "What is the real fight in this mer chant marine controversy?" asked Sec retary McAdoo. "It is a fight for sub sidies. Every ship owner and every ship monopolist wants subsidies. But they cannot succeed because no Demo cratic Congress will pass ship subsidy bills. The Democratic party is pledged by its platform against subsidies. Why not accept the only practical plan the creation by the Government of a naval auxiliary merchant marine with the money the subsidlsts want the Govern ment to give to them?" Idea Declared NnnpsrtlRBn. Secretary McAdoo said the naval aux iliary movement was a nonpartisan idea that should appeal to every Amer ican as something necessary to build up the shipping interests of the United States. "We should prepare for peace," he said, "and at the same time be so pre pared as to be able to look any nation in the face and tell it to go to, if neces sary. "We cannot, with safety, rely on our ability to purchase or charter suitable naval auxiliaries when a crisis appears. We should provide for this now, as soon as possible." DAYTON COUNCIL DIVIDED In ion of County and City Office Is Suggested to Supplant Salary Cut. DAYTON, Wash.. Oct. 21. (Special.) The City Council is divided into two factions regarding the reduction of the salaries of the city officials in accord ance with the economy plan being in troduced into the affairs of the city. At the most recent meeting the ways and means committee recommended that no reduction of salaries be made, but that the offices of the county dep uty sheriff and city chief of police be united, which would mean a saving to both city and county. Dayton's city taxes are more than 5 mills this year, a great deal higher than those of most towns of its size.

It is impossible to sift out the truth. It is reported that a detective agency has been brought into the affair, and that detectives were here about two weeks ugo to Investigate. Public opinion remains fixed that there is no apparent need for a grand jury, and that the expense is too great unless need is shown. An open mind is held, however, by the majority, but they want some reatons for a. grand jury indicated, as nothing can be learned as to the purpose of the move ment. Many believe it is to investigate recent fires of supposedly incendiary origin, while others think it may he an attack upon the alleged restricted districts. W. B.
