This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Merchant Marines of the United States, England, France, and Japan, 1900-1912 The American traveller from the United States in Europe or in South America today is noted because of his pride in his country and everything American, and it is often a grievous blow to that pride to note, as he gazes on the forest of masts and the many flags that fly over the ships in the ports of these countries, the absence of the stars and stripes. And this is true not only of Europe, but also of the great American ports of New York, Philadelphia or Boston. So strong has grown the feeling on this subject that both houses of Congress have had since 1904 a merchant marine commis sion investigating conditions and advising as to what may be done to rebuild our foreign merchant marine. It has been generally agreed that if this is done at once, government aid must be invoked, and in this connection that ob noxious word subsidy is most often used. In order to make clear the meaning of some of the common terms that will crop up all through a discussion of this kind, it may be well to define a few of them. A subsidy is any form of government aid given to ship building or ship Operating interests. A postal subvention is money paid to a ship company partly for services rendered in carrying the mails, partly for speed or other conditions, and partly as pure subsidy or aid.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Merchant Marine: A Presentation of Its History and Development to Date With Chapters on Related Subjects Ntreats of the development of the merchant marine in a very comprehensive manner, and its chronological presentation of each era is very well covered; it is, in fact, one of the best on the subject I have read in recent years. P. De Ronde, president of the Oriental Navigation Company, comments In such works as this there frequently occur glaring inac curacies in figures and statements, none of which I have been able to find in this. R. A. C Smith, former Dock Com missioner of New York, says: I hope that your interest ing and valuable pamphlet will be widely read and that it will aid in forming an intelligent public Opinion in support Of a sound policy for our American Merchant Marine. The Opinion of H. F arquharson Kerr, president of the Kerr Steamship Company, is thus expressed: 'america's Merchant Marine' seems to me to cover the subject with great and accurate thoroughness, and will, I think, rank as a work of the first importance with a wide and enduring influence. Alfred Gilbert Smith, president of the New York and Cuba Mail Steamship Company, says: The book is, on the whole, the best of its kind that I have ever seen. H. H. Raymond, president of the Clyde Steamship Company, declares this work to be an excellent presentation. A. R. Nicol, president of the Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies Steamship Lines, says: SO far as I know, it is the most comprehensive and up-to date publication of the kind which has yet been issued, and I think it will be regarded as a standard work. We hope that America's Merchant Marine may prove particularly useful to shipping men, exporters and importers as an authentic and timely reference book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Merchant Marine: How It Rose, Increased, Became Great, Declined and Decayed, With an Inquiry Into the Conditions Essential to Its Resuscitation and Future Prosperity Edict of Nantes, which deprived France of her best artisans and industries, have been accepted by all historians and econo mists as the two most striking and exceptional examples in modern times, of great national industrial disaster and decay directly contingent on unwise and stupid, but at the same time deliberately adopted, state policies. It has been reserved for the United States, claiming to be one of the most enlightened and liberal nations of the world, after an experience of near three hundred years since the occurrence of the above precedents, to furnish a third equally striking and parallel example of results contingent on like causes, in the decay and almost annihilation of her merchant marine and ocean carrying trade, - a branch of her domestic industry which formerly, in importance, ranked second only to agriculture. It is proposed to tell, in the following pages, the story of this happening, and to endeavor to deduce from a record of sad and mortifying experience, what changes in federal statutes and national policy are essential to resuscitate and again make prosperous our shipping interest.
