le Star Phone Main New vt ny <S : =~ , fan Franciece of: Chicago fivune bide.) New York office, { Boston office, Tremont bide, Who Gets the Money? Exchange of goods between nations is commerce, and "that is the end and aim of the building up of a merchant "marine, which in turn should be the only purpose of a ship subsidy. ' Great Britain’s is the best example of a great merchant marine. Her historical supremacy lay in the ownership of vessels called “tramp ships.” They did not run on regular routes, but sailed the seven seas, keeping moving all the time, and picking up cargoes wherever possible. E “Normally, about one-half of the carrying power of Brit- ish ships is employed in service between foreign ports, and wholly outside the United Kingdom, Only about one-half of the entries on and clearances at British ports are ships under the British flag. The Lasker ship subsidy bil! would not give one penny of assistance or subsidy to any merchant ship which thus F traded between foreign ports, for the subsidy bill says Subsidy shall only be paid on mileage on “a voyage of Which one of the ports is a port of the United States.” ~ Also the shipping board may require that subsidized Ships be run on regular lines, so the subsidy does not go to | “tramp ships” nor to ships that play between Atlantic and Pacific ports of the United States. And it goes only to “such shipowners as the members of the shipping board may elect. ‘ _ Regular ocean liners—passenger ships as distinguished ' from cargo ships and the ships owned by great shippers the Standard Oil and the United Fruit Co.—--would get subsidy. But the $30,000,000 annual subsidy that Mr, Harding of is the lesser part. The owners of subsidized ships not pay income tax on the pact of their ships.

Men of 40 and Thereabouts __ Henry Ford speaking: “A man’s career doesn’t really begin until he is around 40. When he is 40 years old, a ‘Man has just about reached the age when he may begin to think seriously about making money.” Ford’s idea is that the average man cannot expect to | accumulate much of a fortune in the first 40 years of life. | Up to 40, as Ford sees it, a man’s chief function in life | is to gain experience. ‘He should be learning all he can; Particularly HOW to spend money. The best advice I can give to a young man anxious to succeed is: Spend your -—on yourself; get all the experience you can. Don’t to save money and be a miser.” Knowledge and experience are working capital to an j dual, just as surely as money in the bank. With _ $10,000 and no experience, the average man going into for himself is more likely to go broke than make HARD CANDIES AND TAFFIES EDITOWS NOTE: Please read instructions carefully; coupon must be malled to Washington bureau, NOT to The Star's Seattle office.
