Senator Chamber- Lage “Tam a Democrat, but my thorough | study of this subject has convinced me that my party is wrong in its opposition to’a shipping sub- sidy”’? The senator's array of facts and his ar- guments go a long way to establish the sound ness of the Republican attitude on the whole sub sidy proposal. ; "That The most important reason for the build- ing and maintenance of an- American merchant marine is related to the national defense is Sen- ator Chamberlain's first assertion. He recalls the fact that during the Spanish-American war we were dependent upon foreign transports for the carrying of our men and supplies across the Pa- ; and also asserted that when President Ronse- fleet around the world, the yelt sent the American ‘pattleships could not have gone even as far as) Honolulu without the aid of colliers and supply ships operated under foreign flags and employed by the United States government. If those aux- jliaries had deserted the fleet abroad, it could not At the beginning of our par- ticipation in the war in Europe, we were depend- ent upon foreign ships or commandeered foreign ships for transportation of our men and supplies. rom the standpoint of finance, in the Jast hun- dred years we have expended only a. billion dollars on the improvement of rivers and harbors as aids = {0 our commerce, while in the same time we have = paid foreign ships $ 000,000,000 to carry our for eign commerce, yet “there are some people who will condemn congress for extravagance in rivers and harbors appropriations. ‘As another means of illustrating the unsound- ness of employing foreign ships to carry our goods “he stated that in the past seven years we have paid out $8,000,000.000 for the carrying of our for- eign commerce—a sum nearly equal to the debt for- ei, countries owe us. 5 i erhe senator expresses the kindliest feeling to- ward the British people and is of the opinion that “the ties of blood relationship ought to make im- _ the Laramie Republican. possible any war between them and the people of the United States, but this is no reason why we should hesitate to adopt plans that will insure the carrying of the major portion of American com- merce in American ships. “We do not aspire to carry the major portion of the commerce of the world. We do not envy Great Britain her pre- dominance in world commerce. But we should as- pire to carry a major portion of that part of world commerce that flows in.and out of our own ports.” That we are in no danger of approaching Great Britain’s position in world commerce he indicated by saying that our effective merchant ships have a carrying capacity only about 22 per cent of that of the ships that sail under the British flag. Shipping figures show the lower costs of op- erating ships under the German, Japanese and other foreign flags and unless the United States 3s willing to retire entirely from the seas and ieave the carrying of her goods to-her competitors. this country must either go down to the foreign standard of wages and living or must-adopt the policy of aiding our shipping by some sort: of subsidy. The policy of protection which has been applied to our industries like agriculture, manufacturing and other similar efforts, must also be extended to the merchant marine, which is one of the most important of all. Speaking to joseph. % AKING A CRACK at the Honorable Joseph O'Mahoney these days is the chief delight of Joseph’s name has been attached to a number of campaign circulars in the present scrimmage for the United States xenator-| ship. Right or wrong, Joseph does not hesitate to te the world and the Republican does not hesitate to teli Joseph. | When Joseph works himself up to such @ lather} that he exudes this statement: “Senator Kendrick} in five years has become one of the great leaders of the senate.” The Republican thinks he is rather! exceeding the limit; and it is putting it rather strong, it must be confessed. Followers of senate proceedings and affairs at Washington would simply smile and charge it up to the enthusiasm of the campaign manager, Joseph is kidding him-the trenches. insure delivery after subscri> | vember. The Republican suggests that the valiant p.sz- | phleteer purposely omits such points as: “Practically all legislati6n enacted by the Six- ty-seventh congress in behalf of rancher or farmer | originated in the house, of which Mondell is floor | leader. |a farm bloc. It may have been necessary in the senate, but not in the house.” Then when O'Mahoney stubs his toe once more in his statement that the Esch-Cummins law uar- antees a certain return to railroads, which every- body understands is untrue, the Republican ob- serves: “If that be true, if the eDmocrats think it true —which they do not—they will be obligated mor- ally, in the event of election, to pay over to the railroads a deficit amounting to $800,000,000. Either | that, or repudiation after the manner of Soviet | Russia.” Finally, the bonus; and here is the final -shot: Kendrictk’s sterile record on soldier bonus legis- ‘lation is tricked out in words to make it read well, ; but there is no mention of the outstanding fact | that he deserted the bonus in its most critical | Stage in orier to campaign for himself in Wyoming while Mondell. remained in Washington to work | for the soldier.” | Uf one may be permitted the remark, politics is what war used to be. | The Opposition Altests Prosperity. [Wau Democratic campaign spellbinders are shouting themselves hoarse about the depres-| \Sion and unemployment, the commercial pages of Democratic newspapers are filled with facts testi- fying to the enjoyment of a returned prosperity} after the destructive Democratic deflation which | marked the closing months of the Wilson admin- almost universal,” and that “improved business} onditions and increased employment are reported | {in all sections.” The “Annalis' business pe-| |riodical with no partisan bias, but published by} Democrats, said in its most recent issue, discussing} , the business situation: F “General business conditions continue to be of }a highly satisfactory character. Developments of the last week have served merely to further em- phasize that this business expansion is being built j upon jsound principles, and that it may be ex- | pected to continue at an increasing pace. It would | be natural to expect that business at this period of the year would show improvement, no matter what might have been: the record of preceding manths. We are advancing now into the holiday period, and this in itself serves to stimulate activity in retail lines. Furthermore, at this time of the year the | purchasing power in all parts of the country is,at the peak, and this is particularly true of certain | sections this year. |. ‘In the south, for instance, there has been { heavy marketing of cotton, and the south has re- jceived a price for this staple which affords an excellent» return on labor and capital involved. | It is also true that in the west a goodly portion of tthe grain crop has been marketed, and the buy- ;ing power has been correspondingly raised. Thus | there is established the foundation for increased j activity in @ll lines, and it is this which bears a direct influence on conditions this year. To a certain exient the demands for the holiday period are peculiarly seasonal, and it often happens that with the turn into a new year there is a reaction} which leaves industry, so far as retail lines are concerned, in something of a prostrate condition. There is, however, no reason to expect that such al situation in its broadest interpretation will apply this year. “The record of the last nine months has been one.of steady progression in business aud finance, and the underlying situation has not been changed in the least. The money for business purposes is in plentiful supply, and will probably continue so, and under such circumstances there is no reason to doubt the correctness of the viewpoint of busi- ness men that operations can continue confident- ly in the full expectation that prosperity is more nearly of the present than it has been at any time since the process of deflation brought such drasti¢ readjustments and such staggering finan- cial losses.” ‘As shown by previous statistics published by | the “Annalist,” the drastic readjustments and “staggering financial losses,” of which it speaks, were started during the Democratic regime in 1920. The revival has come because of and by rea- son of the policies of the Republican administra- tion. Gives Balance to Court. HE CODY HERALD is a firm supporter of Judge Blume for the supreme bench, and in its latest issue says: “Judge Fred H. Blume of Sheridan visited us Saturday. He is a candidate for chief justice of the supreme court of Wyoming and the only repre- sentative from the north end of the state in the field. If he is defeated in November northern Wy- oming will not be represented on the bench and the southern part of the state will be over-repre- sented. Perhaps the best reason for voting for Judge Blume is the fact that he is a capable, ef- ficient jurist, and a credit to the ermine of the state. Let's make it unanimous for Judge Blume.” Where He Was. A DEMOCRATIC weekly newspaper wants to know where Frank W. Mondell was when Sen- ator John B. Kendrick was sight-seeing on the bat-| tlefields of France.’ ’ That’s easy. Doing what he is paid to do—rep- resent the state of Wyoming in the congress at Washington. Incidentally, many a millionaire would haye paid far more than Kendrick paid for the entire trip for the mere privilege of starting, with carte With Mondell and Tincher and others like} | them in the lower house there was no need foz| Deserves Support The “Stars and Stripes, the offi- cial organ of the American Legion and ex-service interests, has this tu say of Hon. Frank W. Mpndell: Representative Fran W. Mondell,| Republican majority leider in the} house of representatives, ts a candi-} date for the senate in Wyoming. Mr. Mondell deserves the support of vet-| erans of all classes in his state in his} campaign {or the senate. He has heen in the house nearly’a quarter of | @ century, gradually, rising to become majority leader, and in all thet time he has never failed to show himself; a friend of the soldier and sailor. Mr. | Mondell has consistently supported legisiation for veterans of the Civil| War, the War with Spain, and ‘he! voted for the soldier bonus bill in the last session. “In the senate we will find Mr| Mondell just as etaunch a friend of} the veteran, the veteran's widow, and, the veteran’s orphan as he has been for 25 years inthe house. | “The majority leader comes na-! turally by his friendship for veterans | and their dependents—it could not be! otherwise—for he is the son of a gale! lant Union soldier of the Civil War. | ‘As floor leader for the Republicans! of the house Mr.*Mondell has ‘ren-| dered congpicuous service to the con-} gress, the administration, and the} country. Neither has he omitted to! serve in every possible way his. con- stjtuents and the state of Wyoming. With his long legislative experience in the house, Mr. Mondell will im- mediately take a commanding posi- tion in the senate, where he wjll be able to serve his state and the coun- try Just as efficiently as he has in| the house. Veterans of all classes may be sure that when Mr. Mondell takes his seat in the senate they will have another true and tried friend in that. body. ‘‘Mondil is a man of the people.

In reality the. meas- urss.are aimed at property rights, personal liberty, egainst proper regu- lation of pubiic utilities and fn fa- vor of numerous tax increasing schemes. Witness the $500,000,000 state- owned hydro electric bond scheme in California, which would turn the power resources of that state over to five political appointees. The state properties thus developed: would net be subject to public regulation, would pay no taxes and would de- velop into the biggest political ma- chine ever devised in. any state in the uhion—at the taxpayers’ expense or guarantee of principal and inter- est. Witness the proposed compulsory education bill in Oregon—a clear vio. lation of personal Lberty. ly would prohibit a parent sending his child to a thoroughly’ qualified private school and require all children to attend the public school regardless of reasons to the contrary. It is a clear infringe. ment of religious, political and per- sonal liberty. It is an example of spite or hate legislation aimed by one class at another class. | ‘Witness the attémpt in Washing- ton to repeal the Certificate of Con- venience and Necessity act, a progres- sive measure adopted by all leading states for prevention of duplication in publia utility sergice as uryler state regulation rates are established blanche to range at will in the safety zone behind ov an equitable basis for both con- sumer and the company.

Witness Utah and Oregon with state income tax measures proposed as a “means. of reducing taxation.” What rot, Additionc! _ thousancs would ‘have to be collected to main- tain an income tax department to Build up prosperity and industry by scaling down taxes and add no new forms of taxation. Who asked for all these measures, not the people? In every instance they were proposed and put on the ballot by parties with some strictly personal Interest or axe to grind. Do we find public officials trying. to guide the people away from vicious measures anc direct the course of the ship of state along business channels? No. Tho opinion they express is that of the clam. The people are left to the ewect mercies of political agi- tatorg and wreckers of good govern- ment with precious little edvice from public officia’s, whose duty it j= to help maintain and perpetuate good government, We can thank the general intelli- gence of the average citizen today for rejecting radical propositions con- stantly proposed and it-‘s probable that, the “no” vote will be more ex- tensively used at caming oclections than ever before cs the public is tired of being used'as @ cat's paw to draw chestnuts out of the fire for po- litical experimentors. aati The Voice in Protest Editor Tribune: First of all, be- cause I am an American citizen, be- cause I respect the public institutions of our land, beacuse I am proud of Wyoming ag a representative state of our Union, and lastly because I have faith in the people of Casper, this embryo of a metropolis, I ask the question, where is ,there a voice raised in protest?
