the dovelopment of the American merchant marine were laid out with a lacidity that impressed all Americans in his audience with the necessity of something being done by Congress for the mer- shant shipping of "the United States which has just come to realise, since the outbreak of the war, how dependent is its trade on the carriers of other flags than its own. After tracing the rise and decline of American abipping," from the yoar 1862 when American ebipping was supreme on the ocean and more than 50 per cent. of the carrying "trade to China was under the United States flag, Captain Dollar showed the causes. of the declino. which led to the present position of many Ame rican-owned steamera

The Americans stuck o the wooden ships, and the British went in for the iron and after-: wards 'steel, so the Americans began to lose their pre-eminence, Then for some unexplained reason Congress commenced to enzot drastic laws to restrict und restrain. American citizens from operating ships.. First on ship could hois the American flig unless she was built in America and as it was a highly protected country, the cost: of building rose to more than double the price that the same abip could be built for in Great Britain.

Thus an 8,000-tous American steamer costs G$17,236 more per annum to operate than a similar ship of any other nation.
