New York Times. pre-wa- Calling the youth to the sea is now one of the duties of the United States Shipping Board, according to Oliver McKee, well known Washington newspaperman, who writes entertaingly in the current issue of the National Republic of the sea service of the Shipping Board which is seeking to educate young Americans in seamanship as a career. Mr. McKee also tells something about the glorious days when Yankee seamen went all over the world in American clippers. In part he says: The sea again calls the youth of America. The call may not be as irresistable as it was in the days when Yankee clipper ships and merchantmen swept the seven seas a hundred years or so ago, but many an American youth is answering the summons. "We came out of the world War with a merchant marine, an ocean-goin- g fleetl in; tonnage measured by the ..millions. Ships without men are as useless as railroads without engineers, brakemen, tracklayers, and freight agents. To man our merchant marine with crews predominantly foreign is neither good business nor a sound policy. The crews of our ships, whether commerce carriers in peace, or naval auxiliaries in war, must be loyal and dependable. Our merchant marine must be an American-manneif it is to meet the competition of other nations and win for the United States our fair share of international trade. "Uncle Sam has recently bestirred himself through the sea service section of the Shipping Board to interest young Americans in seamanship as a life work, not on government ships alone, but on all American flag "vessels. So successful have these initial efforts been, that in the past three years, 2,500 American citizens between the ages of eighteen and twenty-thre- e were placec as deck boys on cargo vessels, to serve their apprenticeship in a career which to many may mean a masters license before their sea . days, are over. A hand before the mast at fifteen, a mate at sixteen, anc master of a vessel at twenty-fivwas. a record of which many a New Englander old days of Yankee supremacy at sea coulc boast. Nathaniel Silsbee commanded a fine ship, the Benamin with Charles Derby as his mate, both lads of nineteen, bound out of India around the Cape ofGo od Hope. Robert B. Forbes of Boston, a famous mariner in his day was mate of a ship at sixteen, held command at twenty, and at thirty-si- x was the head of the largest American mercantile ho'use iii China. The deck boys from Kansas, Vermont, or Texas, who sign up in 1927 on an American flag cargo vessel, propelled by steam instead of the sails that sent the Flying Cloud speeding through the sea on her record making voyage to the Pacifif Coast, may not reach the captains bridge as quickly as this, but they are cast in the same mold. Energy, aptitude and efficiency provide as readily today the keys to advancement as they did when Yankee ships from Salem and other New England ports carried the American flag on all the trade routes of the world. The steel successor of the clipper ship can likewise fire the imagination of youth, and enlist his loyalty. WHEN Dr. William Lyon Phelps of Yale University has said that when historians tell the story of our age they must of necessity in politics, dirt He cites refer to it as an era of "dirt." the dirt even in religious controversy, "dirt on stage and finally "dirt in the newspapers. By "dirt in the newspapers Dr. Phelps refers particularly to the details, sordid details, many newspapers print regarding divorce and murder trials. Newspapers long ago ceased to be philanthropic enterprises. They are organs of business. Many papers found their existence threatened by the flaming tabloids and the desire of the bulk of readers in certain sections for that type of reading matter. Many newspapers followed suit. But, we say many newspapers, not all. If Dr.. Phelps were to revise his statement today regarding the newspapers he would find that the vast majority of them are clean, so clean that any man can, read them aloud before his family unabashed. The great number of newspapers are judged too often by a few. Manchester (Conn.) Evening News. STILL GOING IN HIGH IS The year 1927 nowneai ly over and if already apparent that the pessimists who have been predicting everything that was bad for the United States this year in a business way are doomed to disappointment. Industry is forging steadily ahead. The retail stores in all parts of the country are reporting good business arid the car loading reports show that nothing has happened to our commerce. There are bright spots, even in agriculture. Fred W. Sargent, president (f the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad, recently stated that tbis year South Dakota will move six times as much grain as last year. He added that the original estimate for this years whes.t crop in Nebraska was 25,000,000 bushels but that the present, prospect is for a crop of 80,000,000 bushels. The Northwestern, will place 7,000 extra freight cars on the siding before harvest time, Mr. Sargent added, and. the Great Northern, the Milwaukee and the Burlington,' which traverse this great northwestern agricultural section, have pledged themselves to have 20,000 more erctra cars ready to move the harvest. Agricultural conditions in K.ansas, too, to he very satisfactory. Taken all in all, your Uncle Sam seems to be getting along pretty well in an economic way. This is no time to turn pessimist, especially if you are inclined to back up your pessimism financially by taking the b;ar side of things. The country is all right and it will continue to forge ahead so long as we continue to adhere to soundt and constructive national and international policies. are-sai- d, ALL VOTE FQR THE WATER BONDS Drive one today and find out Something seems already to have happened to the fvee trade scheme to conq uer the ,West in the coming election. A few months ago we read glowing statements by free trade authorities to the effect that thj farmers of the West were in revolt and that in the next election these name farmers would demand the repeal of the protective tariff and a rt turn to the good old days when they burned corn in their cookstoves in Nebraska and Kansas because it was cheaper than coal. But of late we have heard not nearly so much about this free trade conquest of the" West. Evidently the plans are not developing so rapidly as was tj iought possible. There is even some evidence coming to the surfa ce to indicate that what the farmers of the West want is not less ta? iff but more protection! The ll J progressive senators of the West and Middle West met in cor iference in Washington a few days ago. These senators certainly know what the farmers are thinking about if anyone does, and w hat they said about the tariff at the conclusion of the conference is if iteresting. The following is taken from the accurate New York Titf res, itself a host in the army of the low tariff forces: "It seerry , from this exposition of the groups plans that Senator Borah and hr s associates intend to assert themselves through a concerted effort to make the regular party leaders concede the right of that part of the country west of the Mississippi to obtain legislation . so-ca- j BUILD.
