UNCLE SAM IS BUYING ABROAD
Eight Ships are Purchased in China
for the Philippines
It will surprise a good many old
fashioned republicans to know that
under our protective tariff system
even the Chinese can beat us build
ing ships. And what will cause greater
surprise is the fact that this govern
ment contracted with the Wampoa
Ship-building company, whose yards
are about twelve miles from Canton,
China, to construct eight ships , for
service in the insular possessions of
the United States in the orient. Dur
ing the past year these eight vessels
have been launched and delivered at
Manila. In reporting this news the
Washington Post further says: The
eight boats launched were 160 feet
long of 1,00 horsepower, and their
contracts called for a speed of twelve
knots an hour. Some of them de
veloped a speed of one-sixth of a
knot better than this over their trial
course. They cost the government in
no case less than $8,500 each. Al
though Chinese help is used at Wham
poa, wherever available, it is said that
the ships could be constructed here
at the same cost. Captain Harry
Strue, formerly of the United States
transport Hancock, supervised the
building of these ships and say that
they were delivered at Manila. He
was acting under Commander James
Helm, captain of the port of Manila.
It is said that nothing concerning the
launching of these vessels appeared
in the Canton newspapers because a
request had been made to refrain
from making anything public about
the American ships at the Wampoa
yards."
It is well known that the ship
building trust and the steel trust have
for years held up Uncle Sam for
building ships and armor plate, and
if the price asked for the building of
these eight ships was unreasonable
the administration did perfectly right
in going elsewhere. But why the se
crecy, why not be open and above
board in the matter? Did our repub
lican officials fear the trusts or the
people?
IMMENSE PROFITS IN BANKING
Dividend of One Hundred and Twenty
Per Cent Declared
The Fifth, Avenue bank of New
York has just declared an extra
dividend of 120 per cent in addition
to the regular quarterly dividend of
25 per cent. Two years ago the bank
declared an extra dividend of 100 per
cent and has been distributing regular
dividends of 100 per cent regularly
for several years past. The officials
of this bank are evidently honest and
it is the stockholders who are the
grafters from the customers. But
how can the customers stand it?
Adding half of the extra dividend,
namely, 60 per cent to the regular
dividend of 100 per cent, makes 160
per cent per annum, or 13 per cent
per month.
If well-managed banks pay like this,
what inducement can bankers have
for speculation and frenzied finance?
And what profits their customers must
make to be able to pay this enormous
interest.
