AMERIUAR YOREIGN TRADE SHIPPING, Mr. Johnt Ronch, the veteran shipbuilder and subsidy-seeker, publishes in the AMay number of tho Norths merican Review an articloon Amarlean shipbullding which Is remarkable in some particulars, There are a few uncontroverted facts rotating to Amor- lean shipbullding which must always bo borne. In mind to intelligently understand the case: . First, Amerlean shipping engaged in the forelgn trade has been decllning for mnny years, untll now it hardly bears any serlous proporltion of tho whole carrying trade} second, Ametican-bullt and American- owned vessels alono are pormitied to engnie in domestlo or coasting trade; third, by in- tornntional treaties the rateof ocean poste age Is fixed at the uniform rate vt two conts per slnglo letter; fourth, the value of the merchandise transported butween this and other countrles=our oxports and finports ~—during Inst year was In round numbers 81,500,000,000, ‘The bulk and value of our forelgn trado grow annually, while the proportion of that trade carrled In Amerlean vessels diminfshes, One of the remncdles strongly urged for this slato of things 1s that American merchanta be placed on tho same footlng with the mor- chants of all other countries, and be aflowed to purchase steamnors and other ocenn-going craft wherever they can buy thoms this right {sdentod only to Amerieans. Against this, our Congress, adhoting to tho laws of trade which have been abandoned by all civilized natlons except Spnfu and the United Btates, protests, and still keeps upon the statute beok the old Inw that no vesse! shail beay an ' American reglstor unless the same bo both bullt and owned In tho Unlted States, It Ias been supposed, wa belleve, that steamers cannof be built in the United States at a cost wihich will onable them to do business In conipatitlon with the luss costly steamers bullt In other countries, AMr. John Ronch, of course, opposes the pur- chase of European or Canadian buflt stenm- ers, lie admits, in fact nsjerts, that the reason why ocenn-going ships are not built in this country Is that we cannot run them at o profit if wo did bulld them. Tho same argument {8 used to show that If we were allowed to purchaso vessols we could not afford to run them, no matter how cheap we got them. If this pe true, and Mr. Ronch clnlms to bo tho most oxperienced and best informed shipbullder In the country, thon it Isto be ussumed that this country cannot have o profitable ocenn marine, and that what s bossible to all other civilized people 1s fmpossiblo in this countty, whore there s an abundauce of all the materlal used In shipbuilding, where our tron Is of a superlor quality for that purposs, where the Inbor 1s skilled and in full supply, and where tho merchandlse to bo taken out and brought back is sufliclent to give employment to the vesscls of n hnlf-dozen other nntions, Ac- cording to Mr, Roach, the United States are unable to suppgrt sea-going vessels, { ‘I'ho firat suggostion which this decluaration ‘will present is, thatto permit our merchants to buy ocean steahers could werk no Injury, bechuse they would not buy them it thay could, The difficulty {s not &0 much In the orlglunl cost of the vessels as 1t1s in tho sub- sequent cost of operating thom. 1Io ndmits | that, notwithstandipg the ‘glglmr price of 8 Iabor in this country, Iron steamships can be built {n this country at o cost not exceeding 15 per cent more than tho coat of llke steam- ers in Encgland, T'his difference is altogether too small to provent such steamors belng Lt n this country, .1ie wmentlons, as one item 1n the cost of operating American ves- sols, the excessive local taxatlon, 1o polnts ont how out laws discriiminato agninst this [ clads of property, Anr Euglish company owning fiva steamers of the value of 82,000,000 wiil be taxed 1 per conton Its net profits, 'and it theso profits be 8 per cont on its capltal, ita annunl tnx would ba 8$1,000, But the case {s different in this country, An American company owning and operating tho'same propofty fn New York would pay o tax of 8} per cent on the value of the ships, or 850,000 & year, and this tax would be ex- ooted whether .the Company -earncd any profits or not. In that one Item there would' bo a'discrimination against the American Company of nearly 830,000 & year. No com- pany paying thls tax could compete with othsr compnules paymg no such tax. ' Wa aro free to confess that this Instance of the Injustice of our system of taxatlon serves tg sliow how ecrude, even at this day, is our wholo revenue aystew, and the great room thera 18 for legislutive raform fn this mat- ter, Inasking fora change in the system of taxing property in vessels, Mr, Roach but suggests a reasog for a mors oxtended re- forw, Including our.wholo system of taxing perdonal property. Another discrimination which he suggests 18 not so strikingy Indeed, it only serves him to lead up to hisone Idea, and that Is subsidy, Hestatos that American vessels engaged in the forelgn trade are required to oarry the -malls at two centd per lutter; the result of Wwhich fast year was, as he states, that thirty- two steamers, traveliug 1;161,800' miles, ro- celved only 831,406 for carrylng the malls; while other lines engnged in the consting trade, and carrylug the malls by contract, ro- celved §142,760, though they travelyd only 7,000 mlles. Rouch clalms this as a dis- crimination ugalust Awericon shipplng, The fact i, the Guvernment glves to every vessel eungaged in the forelxn trade all the ocean pustage chiarged on the letter; the same rate THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: TURSDAY, MAY 3, 1881—TWELVE PAGEM 18 nllowed to tho vessels of all vthor nnttons, ‘Tho malls earried in tho consting vessels aro not forcign mnlls; thoy are carried in Ametl- can vessels excludively, and in all probabiilty their trausportation I8 pald for, excossivoly, Whother any of thom bu atar routes wd Q6 hot knotv, but after the wondorful roveln- tlon that Assistarit Postmneter-General Brady establishoed o dafly mall betweon' Sk Panl and 8t.
