THE PROPOSEDSEHATE BILL It Is Scored In the Minority Report of the House Committee Passage of Measure Would Result in Holding Up the Government. WASHINGTON Representative Stovons (Minn.) filed the favorable re port authorized by tho liouso commit tee on merchant marine and fisheries o an amended sennto bill "to require tho employment of vessels of tho Uni ted States for public purposes." Tho bill requires .all government supplies transported by sea to bo car ried in vessels either owned by tho government or flying tho American flag. Tho report bases the necessity for tho bill on the ground that It never Is safo to depend on foreigners for tho flefenso of our own country. It nays that tho United States now owns thirteen passenger and freight transports, and that should those be inadequate for' tho necessary trans portation of government supplies and troops, ships flying tho American fag only may be used In nddltlon; that tho government cannot expect Ameri can Bhlps to bo available In an emer gency. The views of the minority of tho committee, prepared by Representa tive Lucking (Mich.) and signed by Representatives Spight, Goulden, Mc Dormott and Lucking, declare tho bill to be a step in the policy of subsidis ing our merchant marine, for which for seven y.earB the most active, per sistent, influential and unblushing lob by has been hounding the life out of both branches of congress.- Tho re port says that outside of the goods transported In vessels owned by the government there was paid In freights for such cnrrylng In the year 1901, $4,523,954, and that "this carrying is dono principally to the Philippines, and, like the major portion of all our war nnd naval expenditures of tho present dny, has been rendered nec essary by the ill-advised subjugation and retention of those islands." Tho report saya tho bill is n most narefaced misappropriation of public mouoyn, and adds: "Of the seventeen vessels now en gaged in this trafllc on the Pacific, all aro manned exclusively, (except offi cers) b Chinese sailors, who work for about ono-third or ono-fourth tlio wages that American sailors receive, so that tho American sailors havo neon completely supplanted by these Chinese In tho very Pacific ocean companies who are pressing tho I ill nnd who are, in part, to get its gratu ities." Tho report concludes that "In somo respects tms bill Is worse than any pronounced subsidy measuro which has been advocated In congress, be cause it gives an absolute monopoly to a few corporations and individuals who may, nnd probably will, form a combine and hold Up the government for all It will stand."
