No roll call was had in the commit- tee on the sub; of reporting the bill anG therefore the trend of discus- sion is the only record of the attitude of the Republican members of the com- mittee. It is understood, however, that no Republican tor took so positive a stand against reporting the bill as would cause hini to suppoit the minority view The bill as reported by the commis- sion was only amended in one impor- tant particular by the commerce com- mittee. An increased annual mail sub- vention was authorized for the pro- posed mew route irom a port on the Pacific coast to Hawaii, Japan, China and the Philippines. For a monthly service the subvention was increased from $300,000 to $400,000 and for a fortnightly service from $600,000 to $800.0C0. Members of the committee feared that the subvention proposed by the commission was insufficient to atiract bidders for the contract. Mr. Bailey asked if the bill proposed a direct subsidy and Mr. Gallinger re- plied that it provided for certain sub- ventions to ships when their owners meet tie reaniic:n 5 ted. “YOUR MONEY IS '~ NO GOOD” and will be refunded to you if’ after us- ing half a bottle of iS5 THE FAMOUS [RHEEUMATISM and BLOOD CURE you are not satisfied with results.
