Mr. Lasker believes that the only

gross operating disbursements were
$410,000,000. That represents the
expense of the operation.
Of that amount, there is no exact
account for $310,000,000. This item
represents money disbursed for the

, In the presence of the men who

months (and I ask them to challenge

over to men to administer in-the

newly acquired assets , are worth is
highly questionable.

It would almost seem true some
times that "there is nothing new un
der thesun" not even new ideas.
Tecumseh over 100 years ago was a
strong advocate and champion of a
league of nations. No human ever
worked harder and more strenuously
in this causse than did this great
chief. He traveled far and wide,
visited the various tribes and nations
beseeching his brethren to form a
compact to resist the encroachment
of going away, give them to us, and
you may go and welcome from us.
Our lives are in the hands of the
'Great Spirit.' We are determined
to defend our lands, and if it be his
will, we wish to leave our bones up
on them." His bones, however, de
cayed upon a foreign soil.

only a hundred million was used by
the Board during last year. When I
showed to the President a few min
utes ago, the figures I am about to
reveal to you, he was shocked and
dismayed that such a condition could
exist. As a matter of fact, the
Shipping Board used during the last
fiscal year approximately $380,000,
000. Besides the $100,000,000 ap
propriated by Congress, and $80,000,
000 on hand at the beginning of the
fiscal year, it sold assets for $200,
000,000, all of which money went
back into the enterprise. Then in
addition it received from operation
of vessels, etc., $300,000,000, which
was also spent, thus making a total
expenditure by the Shipping Board
of $680,000,000. This $300,000,
000 received from operations when
deducted from the $080,000,000- re
ceived from all sources shows a net
expenditure of $380,000,000, although
the public records show $100,000,
000 to be all that had been appropri
ated by the Congress for the year.
This is an astounding case of abso
lute deception of the country and
Congress. I know and want to ex
plain that Admiral Benson and Mr.
Tweedale had not the remotest thing
to do with such gross misrepresen
tation. They were acting in accord
ance with the system under which
the books had been kept from the
hour the institution started and they
were so busy trynfg to straighten
out the mix-up in settlements and op
erations that they never had the
time to try to systematize the re
cords. The only reason this situa
tion has become apparent now is be
cause coming in as a new adminis
, itrator I desired to find out for my
own guidance what the loss had been.
This necessitated calling in outside
auditors before the facts could be
ascertained. I do not guarantee the
figures now; they are the best we
could secure from the books and we
are assured by Mr. Tweedale's assis
tants, all of whom are here, that they
such as that are pretty sick assets.
But after all there is a fleet. It is
the largest fleet many times over
that the world has ever known. So
our task is to make what was a lia
bility into an asset, for of course the
fleet must be operated. And if we
can solve the problem of how to
successfully operate these ships it
will be worth all the money the war
cost to put the American Merchant
Marine back on the map. If it had
not been for the war we would not

ng grounds. His policy was to
combine all the tribes in one con
federacy; to prevent the sale of their
lands by any single tribe; ' and to
join the British in the event of war
Aith a view to the recovery of lands
already ceded by certain tribes with
out the consent of the whole. He
contended that by the treaty of
Greenville, the United States hald
acknowledged the right to their
lands as vested jointly in all tribes
and therefore that the United States
had no right to purchase lands from
any single tribe without the consent
of the others. He was absent on
his mission of forming this confed
eracy when the treaty in 1809 was
concluded, and on his return when he
had ascertained what had taken place
hreatened to kill the chiefs who had
signed it. One can but speculate
as to what would be the verdict of a
ivorld league of nations of to4ay,
could Tecumseh appear before the
bar with arguments and claims such
as he then presented.
Tecumseh was with Proctor fhen
the latter heard of the defeat of the
British fleet on Lake Erie. . When
Proctor began preparations to eva
cuate Maiden, Tecumseh sensed the
rumblings of a great disaster. In a
long speech to Proctor he recited
his connection with the British and
his fiath in the promises they had
made to his people and upbraided
Proctor for i tn ating. He believ
ed they would show better judgment
should they sLn 1 and fight. He con
cluded hia eloquent appeal as fol
lows: "Father! You have got the
arms and ammunition which our
great father (the King) sent for his
red children. If you have an idea
tucky troops. While the matter is
not a vital point in history, yet -it
may be stated that it was never fully
established, and therefore never will
be, by whose hand Tecumseh met his
death. Captain McAfee of Col.
Johnson's regiment who was at the
battle and the best authority, in
writing of the contest says: "Col
onel Johnson was shot through his
thigh and in his hip, by the first fire
offtthe Indians, and shortly after
wards was shot through his left hand,
by a ball which ranged up his arm',
but did not enter his body. He con
tinued, however, in front of his men,
gallantly fighting the enemy as long
as the action lasted at that place.
The white mare on which he rode
was also shot so severely that she
fell and expired soon after she had
carried her rider within the lines of
the infantry. Tecumseh was found
among the dead, at the point where
Colonel Johnson had charged upon
the enemy in person; 'and it is gener
ally believed that this celebrated
chief fell by the hand of the Colonel.
It is certain that the latter killed the
Indian with his pistol, who shot bim
through the hand, at the very spot
where Tecumseh laid, but another
dead body laid at the same place, and
Mr. King, a soldier in Captain David
son's company, had the honor of kill
ing one of them." We believe this
statement the best authority in ex
istence, written over 100 years ago.
Harrison's great victory in this
battle, which was one of the last acts
in the drama of the war of 1812, hi
pursuit of Proctor and the latter's
narrow escape, will make a story ia
itself.

The President instructed me that
during his administration the public
is to have the facts and all the
facts and that when we show losses
on operations of the Shipping Board,
they shall be the actual losses. Any
thing realized from the sale of as
