hopes to develop a great, successful
merchant marine and become a nation
of shipping, In the opinion of John Bar
ten Payee, chairman of the United
States shipping hoard, who, In a mes
sage to the members of the Old Colony
dub, urges that a great public cam
paign be inaugurated to teach the peo
ple of America to “think and act In the
language of shipping.
The war has given us ships,” ssys
Mr. Paynsu “We now have MOO shlp

but the mice do not keep pace with

Is Pressing Problem.
The problem of establishing a perma
nent marine presses for solution. Mr.
Payne emphasise*. Re contends that
no question of goverdment ownership
Is Involved. The question, be says. Is
not between public snd private own
ership, but between American and for
eign ownership.
”We want an established American
merchant marine; how It shall be
owned Is Ism Important.” he says.
“We desire that every ship now gov
ernment owned shall be sold to and
be privately owned and operated by
Americans for Americans, but that will
come later. The chief thing In hand I.
to create a merchant marine.”
Ships alone will not create a mer
chant marine, Mr. Payne remind* the
Old Colony club members. “Indeed.”
he warns, “unless we have men. money
and brains In the shipping business,
ships may become a liability rather
than an asset, now, then, rosy a mer
chant marine be established? It can
not be done In a day. It cannot be
done by legislation. It requires time,
habit, growth and Individual capacity.
Initiative and enterprise.
"Many seem to think the shipping
board can do this by reducing prices of
ships, and Instantly shipping men will

CLOSE LARGE SHIPYARD
Philadelphia.—The world's greatest
shipyard, at Hog Island, built to over
come the ravsges of the German sub
marine and help win the war for the
allies, will launch llS'last wartime ship
In June and turn It over to the gov
ernment In September. When the Inst
of the fabricated ships of the wartime
contract leaves the vast plant on the
Delaware, Hog Island will have turned
over to the government 122 vessels, a
record of more than one ship a week
since the first boat was sent over
board In August, 1918.
There have been several double
launchings In one day, and on Me
morial day last year five ships were
launched In a little more than an hour,
establishing a world's record.
When Hog Island was going at top
speed during the war, with BO ways
occupied, approximately 35.000 men
were employed. This force has been
reduced to about 22,000, and after the
■MW keota hbwb.
bought by private owners, and, pres
to ! a merchant mariue Is a fact. This
Is a serious error. A substantial reduc
tion In price would undoubtedly sell
some 800 ship*, but this would not
touch the problem. Bhlpe cannot be
sold In large numbers until the coun
try !■ prepared to buy them. It la not
now prepared.
“We have not acquired the ship hab
it. Who loans money on ship*? Whom
of your acquaintanceship would buy a
ship mortgage? Are your neighbors
sending their boys to sea? Ttteae
things must come to pass before
we are a maritime nation, prepared to
buy over 2.000 ships.
"My conclusion Is It Is not poaelble
to have a successful merchant marine
until the country grows Into the ship
habit. The American newspapers and
magaslnes must arouse the thinking
men among manufacturers. Investment
bankers, fanners and labor to the
necessity for a merchant marine; teach
the people to think and act In the lan
guage of shipping. They must first un
derstand. then they will act.
“Already great strides are being
made. Even now we have 800 firms or
companies operating shipping board
"hip*. They employ on land and sea
nearly 00.000 men In the service. We
maintain a recruiting service and
school to teach officer*, engineers and
sailors how to do the work and fit them
for the sea.
“American Insurance Is essential.
Companies roust be encouraged and
new ones established, that we be not
dependent on foreign companies for
our ship Insurance. The American
bureau of shipping must be developed
and strengthened to the end that In
all technical matters affecting ship
ping we may be Independent of any
foreign Institutions. To accomplish this
task, all Americans must pull togeth
er. The tales of the sen must become
the gossip of the nursery and of the
fireside."
last ship Is launched In June the force
will he re»lu ret I to 25 per cent of this
number. These men will complete and
equip the ships still left to be turned
over to the government.
What Is to become of Hog Island Is
the great problem confronting the own
ers of the yard. Recently the United
Blates shipping hoard took over the
title to the ground. Philadelphia has
been urged to take over the yard nnd
