Senate Debates Ship Subsidy Bill and Opponent Clay
In Washington on December 11 the Senate heard the first opposition to the ship subsidy bill from Senator Clay of Virginia, who argued the plan would tax the treasury by nine million dollars annually for twenty years to benefit private ship owners. He warned the measure would not boost the merchant marine and cautioned that subsidies favor existing vessels and could decay once payments cease, urging scrutiny of testimony and noting the bill’s broader economic impact. Several confirmations and a centennial observance filled the day, with funeral services held for the dead at St. John’s Episcopal Church attended by McKinley and cabinet members.
