Pennsylvania and New Jersey shipyards
of the Pusey and Jones Company,

1t is legal holiday and notice to this
effect was posted throughout both plants
yesterday. This means the employees
will be paid double time for working
today. The shipyard workers have been
working much overtime of late. and it
was first intended to have n rest today
but the Shipping Board has requested
that every hour possible be put in on the
ships.
So the officials of the Pusey and
Jones Company urged the employees to
work, and they agreed.

ing Corporation, South Camden, which
has about 5000 men employed on the
construction of ships. was closed today.
This plant is turning out more ships
than any other shipyard along the
Delaware and the men as we'll as the
officials felt they needed a few hours
rest as most of them have been working
Sundays as well as week days.
