"Evening Bella." THE I ENQUIRER. CINCINNATI, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1915 DEFIANCE Hurled By Camden At President Wilson and Democratic Majority. Shipping Measure Will Entangle Nation In European War. Asserts Kentucky Senator. Bill Involves Gpvernment In Socialistic Venture, Lawmaker Says Stone Is Assailed.

sianrca to ran Washington, February 4. Smarting under tha lashing admlnlatered to him and six other Democrats by Senator Stone, of Missouri, for deserting the Democrat, on the purchase bill. Senator Camden, of Kentucky, took the floor In the Senate thl. afternoon and defied the' Democratic majority and tha President to show that tha people of the country are In favor of (he Government going Into the ocean-carrying trade. He waa willing to match the quality of hla Democracy with theirs and believed it would not suffer In the comparison.

Te.terday he made a brief retort to some of the personalities aimed at him by the Mlaeourlan, but to-day the Kentucklan delivered a prepared speech explaining hla opposition to the princilea underlying the pending measure. Immediately after Camden conoluded hla apeeeh hla Kentucky colleague. Senator OUie M. James, gave notice that he would likewise apeak on the bill, and in view ef the fact that Jamea ha. been bitterly resentful of Camden's attitude pn the measure, It Is anticipated that he will direct tome of hla observation, atralght at tha Veraalllea statesman.

Bay. It'g Socialistic Venture. At the outset of his Senator Camden declared that tha ship purchase bill Involves the Government In a Social-istlc venture which Is violative of time-honored Democratio doctrine, and he was not prepared for thta "leap In the dark" and the adoption of ouch a "radical policy without having It thoroughly dia-euaeed -before and digested by the rank and file and approved by them." Then he quoted that portion of President Wilson', veto message on the Immigration bill, which, apropos of the literacy teat, says: "I submit that no one can quote the peo ple', mandate to enter upon a policy of restriction in this fundamental matter, gone to the country on it and been commissioned to control IU legislation. Doe. thl.

bill reat upon the eon.ciou. and uni versal aaaent of the American people? I doubt U. I am willing to abide by the verdict, but not until It has been rendered. Let the party platform, out upon It and the people pronounce their wlah. The matter Is too fundamental to be settled otherwise." Adopts Preeident'n Language.

With fine scorn the Kentucky Senator adapted the President's own language to the ship purchase bill, saying: "Has any political party ever avowed a policy on th. fundamental matter gone to the country on It. and been oommla-aloned to control Its legislation Does this bill rest upon the conscious and universal aasent and dealre of the American people? I doubt It. It la because I doubt it that I make bold to dtaeent from it I am willing to abide by the verdict, but not until it has-been rendered. Let the platform, of partlea speak out upon this policy and tha people pronounce their wlah.

The matter la too fundamental to be settled offhand or in any other way." i Pur.ulng thl. point, Camden "I am willing to be guided ty the of the people when expressed on th great que.tlon and ever aurrander to the will of the majority of 'clear but I am not willing to surrender that con vlctlon and my eenae of duty until the people have epoken. For this rea.on I participated In none of the (Democratic) conference, which sought to bind Demo- oratle Senator, to support thl. bilk which is In no sense a party platform mea. re." Quotes Merchant Marine Plank.

Camden here quoted the merchant ma rine plank of the Baltimore 1012 platform, to that the Demoeratlo party de clared In favor of building up tha Ameri can merchant marine, "without Impoalng aiMitlonal burden, upon tha people and without bountlea or subsidies from the nubile treasury And then. In an effort to drive home this he aaid that -the pending Dill im poses "adOltlonai ouraene upun ui. people by uelng of the people's money In a haaardou. venture, and at a time of reat nubile wnen tna Treasury needa every dollar to avoid further taxa tion of the people. Camden oppo.ea tne measure eieo Be cause of the menace oi international' and because we would be having Intuit, to the flag on all aldea.

It would be a reckiea. tempting oi rata to try the experiment In the preeent world crisis For the Government to engage In the ocean-carrying trade now would be a certain Invitation to dlaaater. We would Inevitably be entangled in tne wona conflict now raging." Tha Senator eontendea tnat tne oov- ernment ahlp. would be treated by the belligerent, the same aa the of private cltlsena or corporatlona, and he feared that thl. would Inflame the American people to such an extent that even though the national Administration would be opposed, the oountry would be forced Into the war In defenae of what it regard-ad as Its honor.

Asks If People Would Submit. Tha American people are willing to aubmlt to ael.ure, search or detention of vessels owned by private capital," he said. and to await the declalon of Internation al Courta, but could they or would they aubmlt to apparent indignities offered the United States Government in the form ef one of Its veeeela?" Camden queatloned whether the Gov ernment-would be able to purchase any considerable number of merchant ships now that ocean frelghta bad mounted so high and the carrying trade become so profitable. And If they oould not be bought at reasonable price where would the advantage come from buying them at all he I do not subscribe to the theory that freight rates would come- down materially following the passage of this bill," he etated, "but granting that they would, are we Justified ip'taklng aueh a haxardoua step for a mere com mercial advantage?" Camden dlscusaed various practical feature, of the proposition. He said that ainre it waa not to be the policy of the Government to purchase the Interned ships of belligerents, it would require about a year and a half to build a fleet of ou ahlp.

with the money to be ralaed un der the bill, and by that time the emergency now described would probably be past. i Speaks of "Vital feature." Moreover, he eald, the bill made no provision for terminal faoilltle. abroad, end he inquired how this "vital feature" was to be provided for. "No Senator," Camden aeaerted, "ha. a monopoly of wladom and virtue that authorise, him to critloise and condemn another who dlffara from him, nor to to read him out of the party because he will not violate his dear convictions at the beheat of a conference, sub.equently called a caucus, In which ha did not participate.

"It I. rather Inconsistent for those who profesa to be' leaders here and to for tha Admlnl.tratloa to criticise Democratic Senator, for conferring with Republican Be net ore on thl. measure when President Wilson Immediately calls Into conference three Senators from that (Republican) side of the chamber, "It I. highly Inconsistent for the same leaders to criUrlse me because I will not violate my clear convictions and support a measure whleh I deem to be undemocratic and Soclallstlo and upon which the people have not passed."

Coin For Improvement of River Sundry Civil Bill Carries Thousands of Dollars For Public Buildings in Buckeye State Warm Tussle Expected Over Harbors sractaL nisraTca to tbs exqciBsa. Washington, February 4. A melon wa. cut for the Ohio Valley state, to-day when the sundry civil bill, carrying appropriations for the civil establlah ment of the Government, wa. reported to the House from the Committee on Appropriations, and subsequently when the river and harbor bill was reported to the Senate from the Committee on Commerce of that body.

The sundry civil bill carries 13,200,000 for tha continuation of tha Improvement of the Ohio River under the continuing contract system for expenditure during the fiscal year beginning July 1. The rivet and harbor bill likewise make, ample provision for new work on the Ohio. As reported to the Senate the bill cofltain. 11,800,000 more in cash for the Ohio River than the bill carried when It paased the House, and that much lest for' contract authorisations. Amendment Is Inserted.

The reason given for thla shift Is that engineers found that a greater amount In cash waa desirable. The bill aa reported out also contain! the following Ohio River amendment which waa Inserted by the Senate Committee: "That upon recommendation of the Chief of Engineers and tha approval of the Secretary of War the project may be so modified aa to permit the construction of one lock and dam to replace Locks and Dame Noa. 1 and 2, ahould such modi ficatlon be deemed to be desirable and advantageous." Dam No. 1 la a movable etructure at Davis Island. Above It la the harbor of I'itt.

burg, Penn. The lock and dam at that place waa placed In operation In 1885. The army engineers have reported to Congreas that thla dam la In need of cxtenelve repairs. Dam No. 2, extending across the river a short distance below No.

1, glvea, In connection with four other movable dams, continuous slack-water suitable for navigation through a distance of 20 miles. Owing to the neceeelty of practically rebuilding Dam No. 1, tha recommendation Is Included In tha bill for the placement of thl. dam and No. 2, shortly below it, with one dam which will afford quite as much alackwater and perhaps Involve not much greater expense than would be entitled In repairing Dam No, Feaaage Will Be Opposed.

A fight la to be made against the paa-aage of the river and harbor bill In tha Henate by some of the Republican Senators who participated In the filibuster last session, but it Is uncertain now whether Ihey will succeed In defeating It, although Its friends are naturally apprehensive. The sundry civil bill makee the following appropriations for publle buildings In the Ohio Valley states: Ohio Alliance, completion, $20.000 Ely-rla, commencement. fao.OoO; Logan, commencement, Mlddletown, commencement, loO.OOO: Newark, continua tion, Sandusky, continuation. $80..
