Innurnerahle instances might be! given ? (, illustrate the point now 1 made, but I will only take a few. When the AuRlo-.lapauese alliance i, was entered Into. I think It safe to i say thai no consideration was given I to America's views, or as to whether 1 America would he injuriously affected or not, but the question was. how would it affect the high contracting parties? The a 1JI a n ee was formed, to ho modified or abrogated, if you please, only when the disarmament ; conference convened nt\d dissolved an alliance which was unpopular r.ot ! only in America, but as well in some I of the Colonial possessions of <ireat Britain. 1 am not complaining of Ibis course; I am simply illustrating the proposition which I am now urg ing. Again, when llritish corpora tions were formed under the I lon? Kong: ordinances, to do business In China with American financial inter ests dominating In the management and control of some of such corpo tstlons, it was afterwards decreed, by orders in council, that these cor porations. even when .under American control, must be under the manage ment of British subjects. The ques tion was not asked?what will Amer ica think of this course and how will it affect American Interests, but how would It affect British' interests and the Interests of British subjects in the Orient. The result was that large American interests were placed under British control and many American houses practically driven out of busi ness In Shanghai and other ports of China. Again. I am not complaining, but merely illustrating further the proposition which I make. Congress has been appealed to for legislation to meet the situation, but it lias not been passed as yet. I'reverted Viewpoint. It is discouraging indeed to those who are attempting to build up and maintain our merchant marine, when they arc confronted by the sugges tion of many of our business men, that there if no sensu in attempting to maintain a fleet of American mer chant ships when some foreign power operating ships under foreign flags is willing to take cargoes cheaper than American ships can offord to handle them. lmmenuo cargoes ol I otiior'1 r'" |l,,?
