American interests and foreign interests. I am not afraid to stand here and advocate American shipping and American interests. The Senator from New Hampshire is entirely mistaken when he calls this a head tax. Any immigrant coming into this country can avoid this tax by coming in an American ship. and I repeat. that it would help not only the American Line. but it would help American lines that might hereafter be established. and American shipping generally. American shipping needs all the aid it now enjoys and more to sustain itself against English opposition. I doubt whether the American line can live even with the aid from the Government it now enjoys.
