CALL FOR 100000
SH|PYARO HELPERS
Each State Asked to Contribute
Volunteers to Speed Mer-
chant Fleet.
FORM RESERVE ORGANIZATION
Workmen to Stand Ready When Called
Standard Scale of Wages and
Good Housing Conditions
Assured.

Two hundred and fifty thousand
workmen are to be enrolled In a re-
serve organization OF American me-
chanics, skilled workers in many lines,
to bring to completion the gigantic
shipbuilding program to win the war.
The organization is known as the Unit
ed States Shipyard Volunteers Of the
Public Reserve. Those who enroll will
stand ready to respond when they are
called to report at the %shipyards for
duty.
An appeal for volunteers has been
made by the department of labor,
the council of national defense, the
shipping board, the 10000 four-minute
men, governors Of the various states,
organized labor and business men. The
needs of the governments shipyards.
Pay of volunteers will be in accord
anee with the prevailing wage in the
s%hipyards at the time they are called.
Construction of houses for the workers
is being pushed with energy, and the
necessary homes will be ready when
the men are called.
Cards are issued to all applicants,
bearing statements of the purpose of
the shipyard volunteers, classifying
them according to trades and asking
signers to respond when called. But.
tons will be given to volunteers bear
ing the inscription. ~. s. Shipyard
Volunteers" In addition, h work.
er will receive a certificate signed
by Chairman Hurley, which reads:
''This is to certify (name of vol
unteer) of Getty, state), has
enrolled in the United States
Shipyard Volunteers of Pub
lie Service Reserve to aid the
nation in its imperative needs
for merchant ships with which to
overcome the submarine menace
and maintain our forces at the
'front.'"
Shipyards to Win or Lose.
"The world war will be won or lost
in the American s%hipyards. Every
rivet driven is a blow at the kaiser.
Every ship turned out brings America
nearer to victory"
Those who give their strength and
influence to the speedy construction of
ships render service that is patriotic
and highly essential to the successful
termination of the war;"
Plans for the organization of the
Shipyard Volunteers were laid with
the view to interfere as little as posi-
BILE with the private industrial con-
Germs and to cause the minimum of
inconvenience to the workers them
selves.
Under this system, when an acety-
lene or electrical welder, blacksmith,
boiler maker, carpenter or any other
of the skilled workers or laborers is en-
rolled, he need not fear that he will be
called upon to quit his present posi-
ton without notice and go immediate
ly to a %shipyard. The government does
not contemplate issuing calls to the
volunteers until the yards are ready to
receive them.
When a man is enrolled he may
make his personal plans in accordance
with the governments wishes and be
ready when the call comes He will
then have awaiting him a definite job
at a definite place, at u definite, gen
erous rate of pay.
