Water-Bound World by Harl Vincent:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas

"IN our present state of political corruption, it would seem a relief to go off to some other planet and colonize anew — providing, of course, that the chosen planet was not already inhabited by intelligent beings much further advanced than we are. But, in this short scientifiction gem of interplanetary travel, Mr. Vincent sounds another warning — corruption, too, can travel and perhaps be joined with peers of a vastly stronger menace, and uniquely strange — as witness what the travelers in this storv meet with en route to Saturn."
