Unite, more American ships will ba
put on the run as the trade ami the
biMlnem develop.
Japan Has Retaliated.
"Japan has only recently enacted n
const wise law, and is now shutting
out foreign vowels from hor coastwise
trade. We can not complain nt her
action, for It lias been tho policy of
our own government over slnco its
foundation to retain the coastwise
trade for American ships. Japan it
branching out, and Is now working out
the proposition of Japan for the Jap
anese. Japan and America A Comparison.
"The suspension of the American
coastwise law, would probably result
in the discontinuance of the Ameri
can ships, and would give the Hawaii
ans about fifteen additional sailings
per annum over the Japanese line
The American ships are somewhat
smaller than the new Japanese liners,
but they all have white crews and pav
the largest salaries that aro paid any
where in tho world to officers and
men of the merchant marine.
"The Japan lines, on tho other hnud,
nre run at a minimum of cost, and
could easily drive out the American
ships if the coastwise trade law were
to be abrogated. The Pacific Mall
Company claim that they are running
their steamers at a loss, even with the
Chinese crews. Of course, the Mall
Company, pay the prevailing rates of
salaries to the officers. But the Jap
anese Hue receives an annual sub
sidy of over $500,000 from the Japan
ese government, whereas the Ameri
can vessels do not receive a single
cent.
Favors a Sw'bsidy.
"I am In favor of a subsidy for the
American vessels. 1 have always tak
en a very active part in the matte
of rehabilitating the American mer
chant service, and have constantly fa
vored the doubling of the mall pav
that is now given under the Act of
March 3, 1S91; in other words instead
of $2 a milo for carrying mail, I am
in favor of giving $4 per mile so as
to enable the Americans to build" ships
for enrrying the mails.
"That we are exceedingly weak so
far as our merchant marine is con
cerned, is evidenced by tho fact that
when the battleship fleet sailed
around the world, it was impossiblo
to get American merchant ships to
act as colliers, and we beheld the
anomaly of a fleet of war vessels fly
ing Old Glory at the masthead, accom
panied by a nondescript fleet flying
the flags of a number of foreign na
tions, carrying coal and provisions for
our warships.
Best Pay and Food.
"Wo feel that It i3 Impossiblo for
a ship which pays American wases
and furnishes tho rations required by
the American navigation laws, which
are not an inconsiderable item, to com
pote with the ships manned by tho
cheap Asiatic seamen, and which fur
nish but rice and cheap rations. m
required by the Asiatic sailors.
"A couple of years ago, we came
within one of carrying the proposal
into law, and I feel satisfied that the
time will come when our countrymen
generally, will demand an enactment
of law which will provide for increas
ed pay to American veseels carrying
the United States mail."
