GRAHAM ENDORSES
MERCHANT MARINE
Does Not Expect That Vermont Will
Give Up Men Needed in Farming
and Railroading.
Especial to The Reformcr.)

MONTPELIER. Feb. Is.
A conference between Gov Graham
and an agent of the United States
shipping board recruiting service on
the subject of enrolling young men in
Vermont to be trained to serve in
crews of the merchant marine was held
at the state house on Feb. Il.
Gov. Graham pointed out that Yer
mont can i'll afford to spare any young
men from her farms, especially III the
sugar season He was treasured by
the shipping board s representative,
who stated that only those young men
are wanted who have a natural inch-
nation toward the sea, and are not en-
ployed at present in work essential to
the country s war needs, such as farm
ing or railroading The agent stated
that young men familiar with motor
boats make excellent apprentices for
| the merchant service.
Following this conference, Gov. Ora
ham issued this endorsement of recruit
ing for the merchant service:
| The government, through the United
| States shipping board, is endeavoring
to recruit $4,000 young men for serv-
| ice in the merchant marine The mer-
arms of our national defense. 1t main
talns our sea-borne commerce, without
/ which the army and navy could not eff
| fectivelv carry on their war work
AS governor, l am now asked to di-
rect the attention of those young men
| in Vermont with an inclination toward
the sea, to the work of the United
States shipping board recruiting serv-
ice. 1t is enrolling young Americans
from II to 81 years old for the crews
| of our merchant marine ships. This
work | heartily endorse
Young men accepted for this serv-
ice, before entering on their regular
duties, will receive special training as
apprentices, on training ships at Bos
ton. While in training they will be
paid $50 per month. Later, as members
of merchant crews, their pay will be in
creased. No previous experience i.
necessary to enter the training serv
ice.
Every young man free to serve il
the merchant marine should give thi.
opportunity his earnest attention
Those wishing to enroll for trainin!

In entering upon this service on
