America's Lost Carrying Trade and the Taft Bill
The Cosmopolitan writer laments the decay of America's mercantile marine and argues for protection to ship American goods on American bottoms. He criticizes the Humphrey Bill as insufficient and urges a large native tonnage with preferential treatment, Panama Canal access for American vessels, and a broader policy to revive the domestic carrying trade and reduce reliance on foreign ships. He notes a 1860 peak vs 1909 decline in American shipping and export value.
