Now. it has been said on this. floorand I know the source from which it has comethat Germany does not subsidize the HamburgAmerican Line. No more misleading statement than that can be made by any living man. Not only is the mail pay of the HamburgAmerican Line greater than the pay of any other line running out of Germany. but the HamburgAmerican line has a contract with the German Government by which the German Government reduces the railroad charges to the emigrant and it goes as a subsidy to the HamburgAmerican Steamship Line. and out of that source of revenue comes one of the most opulent of their profits. And the Government of Germany would no more permit one pound of her freight or one head of her passengers to be carried upon any ship other than a Germanmade ship than she would commit any other breach of duty that she claims to owe to her citizens. Now. then. here is a very simple matter.
