OPPONENTS’
ARGUMENTS j
Opponents of the measure say i
the subsidy will constitute a gift ]
of untold millions to a compara-1
tively few groups of shipping in-j
terests; that *it will not stimulate!
a truly great merchant marine,]
but will go only to lines operating
ships over established routes; that
it is unAmerican in principle, be
cause it seeks to sustain, out of
the public purse, a service- which
the administration says cannot be
maintained in open competition
with other nations; that by the
special favors proposed in tax em-
tion and low rates of interest, in
justice is done all* other groups
which must pay taxes and brrow
money.
They also argue that, in addition
to the direct cost to the govern
ment of the tonnage-mile subsidy,
estimated by shipping board of
ficials at $30,000,000 yearly, the
lost taxes -and other gratuities
would add . additional millions
which never could be accurately
figured.

he made a statement that a majority of college students are
afraid of hard wdrk. This ruffled the ciest of the college bred
men who immediately took up the cudgels In behalf of their cult.
Dr. Henry Van Dyke of Prince ten was one of those who did not
«sliah Mr. Edison’s strictures ar.d who did not hesitate to let it
M known. The following is what Dr. Vnn Dyke said in answer
to the remarks of Mr. Edison:
“Well, he is right in saying that they are not what they
would be. But he is dead wrong in thinking that he could make
them so. The very things that he blames in them are the things
that arc the best and most hopeful. The so-called improvements
that he would introduce would be distinct handicaps and’ disad
vantages. The object of a college education is not to enable a man
to make a living but to teach him how .’o enlarge and enrich his
mtntal and moral life, to he more cf p. nan, to be a real person
and not a mere cog in the machinery of industry. The main thing
IS to teach him how to use his own mind and to understand the
thoughts of others. No need to cram his memory with unassorted
information like a junl: shop. Teach him, through literature and
Science and philosophy, how to see things as they are, imagine
them as they ought to be. Then you will have an educated man.
And whatever he dees, he will do better because he can think and
"Not all college graduates get that far, however. But the
majority become so in some degree. And they do not object ‘to
- work, especially if it is dirty,' as Mr. Edison says they do. On
the contrary, they like it. It reminds them of football, which is
distinctly not a silver paper game. The trouble with Edison’s idea
of education is that he merely wants labor that he ‘can use in
business.’ The colleges, at least most of them, want something
