are not so sure of it. It looks on the face of it like a back-handed sort of proceeding. It would Bem beiter to do the thing openly and refuse to collect the felle. There is, howover, this to be said. The coasting trade of the United States is a protected area into whjoh no foreign flagoan intrude. There- fore; if the United States likes to give a subsidy to its coasting trade by returning its canal tolls, the rest of the maritims natione are not really injured. It is the American people who will pay more for an already expensive. monopoly. The danger is, of course, that the owners of the few American foreign-going shipsmay themselves protest against discri- mination.. For our part we soo in the speech of President Taft-the acknowledgment of an important value for its technical avasion principle, a proposal of doubtful
and a confession that the position, of the American Ragin theoversos trade of the world is hopeless.
