MERCHANT MARINE
CALLS SLOWED UP
STILL TAKING MEN

Although enlistments are still being
received for the L. S. Merchant Marine
Service, the heavy acceptanees of men
in all parts of the country has more
nearly filled the requirements of the
government in this line. E. J. PETER
son of the Crystal Pharmacy, who is in
charge of Pensacola enlistments in the
Merchant Marine service. has received
notice to this effect
Because of the lighter demand for
men news from headquarters is that
it will require from two to three weeks
for acceptances to go through fINn
now on, where but from two to i've
days We're required under the previous
arrangements. Many Escam bians have
enlisted in the Merchant Marine
through Mr.. Peterson who wishes to
correct the idea that seems prevalent
that no more enlistments are being re-
ceived.
