THE PREDATORY
' t."i& .-
Objects to Having U. S. Serve
"the Interests" in Carrying

By WILLIAM .JENNINGS HKYAN
(CimvrlalU, III J, lv the United Preif)
i MIAMI, Hit , March 8 I nm nKuliixr fin-
blistering unci liave for sevc-inl yearn lic-en
advocating a cloture iille In the Senate I
believe In the rllit of the majority to tule
and nm sorry to learn from prc-is dlsput. lies
that the Senate Is Inclined to require it two.
thirds vote for the i-IosIiik of debate
A majorltj vote miRht to lie BUitlciein
i after each Senaloi has been Klven reason
lablo opportunity to expreoa his vlew To
require a two-thlrdit vote l to Rive to Hie
predatory tnterent.i the came pnuei tli.it
they now liave to prevent legislation hostile
Jo their prllleKes.
As long ai the rulen pet mil a milium v t
obstruct lcKllation we may expect iliein
to be emploHd to prevent progressive 1iri
latlon Just as they were rmplojeil two eaiK
BO to enable tlto shipping hum to defeat
the rresidents shlppltiK bill
mihlsi: OK IUI.IIS
Whether the Senators should use the
rules to defeat a proposed measure ! a
matter entirely in the dlxcietlon of the
Senators," who are tesponslble to their con
stituents alone. Just a the President Is
responsible to the Reneral public- only when
he uses-l)li veto to defeat a measure fav
ored bv a majority of the Senate and lloue.
So far as I have seen expreslons fioin
the Senators neatly all of those who olid
against mithotlzliiK the aiinltiK of ship did
so for the purpose of compelling an e.tra
session of Consres", or because they ob
Jecled to the pljrAseolocy of the bill. Since
tho l'rcsldcnt has power to call a peclal
session of ColiKiess at tm time, and mnK
Tor leBlslatlon he dctlres, the Jingo pri"s
will llnd It difficult to convince the public
that there Is an thine treasonable In the
desire to Jiave ToiiKTress in session, liven
the most vvar-lIKo of the newspapers will
hardly Insl't upon the abolition of Congress
now. whatever tbev might .have the bold
ness to advocate In time of war.
QUESTION OK 'l.ANGUAGi:'
The second question relates to the merits
of the bill So far as 1 am able to Judge.
the objections urged were not to giving
authority to the President, but related to
the language to be employed, and surely if
congressional authority is needed, the mem
bers of Congress cannot fairly be denied
discretion as to the language to be em
ployed, Kvcrj one recognizes that the giving of
authority Involves serious risks
The public 1ms such complete confidence
In the Piesldent that Congress would not
hesitate to v.onfer upon him any power that
lie could hnrcclf ue. but the President
cannot ride on the ships himself or handle
the guns lie cannot even direct the man
who pulls the ttlgger.
Tho expert .gunner will be some ':oi)0
miles front Washington when he carries
out the uuthorlty conferred. He will not
only have the expert's desire lo test Ills
skill, hut he will be under the Immediate
direction of a shipowner, who may have
a large pecuniary Interest in landing a con
traband cargo.
The President ,has tint asked ConRress
to surrender to him authority to declare
war; Is It mange that Congress should
hesitate to put an expert gunner In a posi
tion where bj his mistake, or b a nils.
tqke of an int. rested shipowner, he may
commit an in. of vtui :
STANPS IiV HOl'Si:
The Senate and House did not agiee
as to the phraseology of the proposed bin.
The Senate wanted to Include "other In
strumentalities" which the House thought
too vague description of the power con
ferred. The House iilso excepted from In
surance merchantmen, tatrylng arms and
ammunition and a minority of tho House
committee favored inset ting this exception
In the paragraph authorizing the arming of
ships.
J am heartily in sympathy with the
House In withholding Insurance from ships
carrying arms and unimutiltlon and am ulo
In sympathy with the minority of the
committee in the belief that the exception
should be extended to the arming of ships
as well, The bill in both Senate and Houe
provided for protection of Americans only
when they were lawfully on ships and it is i
lor Congress to say what Is lawful
In my opinion a law should be enacted
withholding clearance from an billlgerent
ships carry Iiir American passengers to Ku
rope. American papers of the SUU of last
month contained the following dispatch
from Halifax, N s :
OCKAN HAIUtKD TO WOMKN
HALIFAX. X. S.. Keb. 23. A num
ber of women and children who arrived
here last nlght'nn a steamship from the
United States for Kurope were taken off
today by tJov eminent authorities under
a regulation which provides that
women and children maj not sail from
a Drttlsh pott for Kngland at present
Three Americans aboard the liner,
which arrived In port last night. Mere
permitted to continue the voyage. Clear
ance papers were refused until twenty
five Canadian Women and children had
been removed.. They were taken ashoro
in tugs.
KKKP OKK THK SHIPS
If Great Hrltaln will not allow llrithh
women and children to sail on a lirltlsh
ship bound for .Kngland, why nhould the
United States allow American women and
children, or even American men, to sail
,on any belligerent ships going Into the
danger zone?
It will bo noticed that the Halifax dls
patch says that "three American women
v were allowed to proceed." Of course th
Urltlsh officials had no authority to remove
American women, but why should the
United States allow the owner of a bel
ligerent ship to" safeguard a contraband
cargo with American women and children,
or even American men?
And why should our Government permit
the United States to be drawn Into this war
by the follies of any American citizen who
so disregards his country's welfare as to
travel upon a belligerent ship whether for
pleasure or for profit?

The soldier went on to leeilhe the Im
pressive scene. At the burial of Sir .loliu
Mooie was heard the distant and random
gun. Here the shells burst In the midst of
the burial party Hearers were laid low
There was a rush for tover. The grave was

The famous landing in Ualllpoll und the

The "Telephone
Handclasp"
Perhaps you've been called by a man
who believes that gruffness and impa
tience bespeak the real man of business.
From his blunt "hello" to his cold
"good-bye" you sense a growing resent
ment of the manner his voice reflects.
Then a second call!
identifies himself at once, perhaps ven
turing the same "good morning" with
which he would greet you on the street.
There's a recognizable note of cordiality
in his voice. Without overdoing it, he
seems to hold out his hand to you; in the
hustle of the day's work he has not
.forgotten that business is based on the
confidence which this breeds. Rather
a sharp comparison, perhaps; but it's
not outside your own experience. And
that proffered handclasp you welcome;
your own hand goes out. There's a
man with whom it is a pleasure to deal !
Can it be summed up better than
that COURTESY PAYS?
