Wlint The Karquhar TonuKe Bill
I'ropoiieH To lo.
The i KU-t i tlie Commit li e on
Merchants Marine p.nd Fisheries
of the Tonnage bill, which has
been submitted to the lb-use,
accompanied by the views cf the
minority, is xi cxtercinely in
teresting as well as elaborate-document
and is supplemented bv a
valuable ajipendix, Mr. Cum
mings, of New York, was the only
Democrat that voted with the
majority of the committee in favor
of reporting the bill, and it is re
garded as significant that the
names of the three cither Demo
cratic members ot i lie conimitt:e
Messrs. Wheeler, of Alabama.
Price, of Louisiana, and Wise, of
Virginia licneral Wheeler is the
president of the American Ship
ping League, v. Iiich i.it t in Wasii
ingi.Mi several months :.iro and
formally adopted a, resolution in
favor of the Tonnage bill. His
opposition to it. under the circum
stances, therefore, was as inex
plicable as it wa disappointing to
the friends of the measure, ana it
has provoked much (severe crit icism
among the members of the Ship
ping League. For months past
Messrs. Price and Wise have also
been confidently claimed as among
its supporters by the friends of the
bill, and their opposition to it also
caused surprise and disappoint
ment. No explanation of the
failure of the three members
named to sign the "views of the
minority" has been forthcoming.
In brief, the report, which was
drawn and offered by Chairman
Fariuhar. states ;
"Thirty-five years ago the mer
chant marine of the United States
was one of rur leading interests, a
great source of our prosperity and
a strong right arm of National
power. Now our shipping in
lorcign trade has sunk almost out
of eight. The National ncceity
for ships and seamen for an active
commerce in ovr own vessels has
increased with the giving of every
new subsidy or bounty or pro
tection that foreign nations have
resorted to in the last fit y years
to cut our merchants and shipping
out of business, weaken our tlefeii
sive power and threaten our Na
tional life." Tho report says that
"one of the most useful and certain
means of Government aid to the
marine of the present day is a
direct, regular and speedy portal
service by able steamers forming
part of the cruising force of the
Navy. Wherever the facilities for
regular, rapid and cheap communi
cation exist, business will soon le
come established. as shown by the
experience of Kngland. which has
spent enormous sums thus to in
crease her commerce and create
employment for her shipping.
The ocean transportation of the
United States averaged $210,000
000 annually for the last ten years.
Taking our share of this trade at
75 per cent, we have an amount of
lSO.OOO.IKXt, 10 per cent of which
is $18,000,000. Surely it would
not be a bad investment for the
Nation to pay out $1S annually to
secure an o)portunity to earn and
save $180. There aie no appropri
ations made that would pay so
well as this would do. But if this
is thought too large then make it
5 per cent. That would be double
what the Bounty bill will call lor
in ton years tocome.''
The estimate of the committee
is that under the terms ot the bill
the payment in bounties for the
first vear would be for sail vessels,
-tl.ol-1. 81S; steam vessels, f 1,715
J2. total, 3,3t)0,7 14. The
annual increase would be about 5
per cent, so that it would be eight
venrs before the annual bounty
'would amount to 5,OUO,000.
Mr. Fithian submitted the re
port of the minority, which says
that the policy of paying subsides
to ships would be creating and
fostering a privileged class at the
expense of the whole people.
