We Must Have Ships.

Mr.. Ohio H. W. Talbot. chairman for
Montgomery county of the Maryland Coun-
Gil of Defense, has received an urgent
letter from General Francis E. Waters,
chairman Of the Executive Committee of
the Council. asking him to make immedi-
ate appointments of local men to receive
registrations Of volunteers for shipyard
work. General Waters writes that it is the
most important call that the government
has made on the Maryland Council and
there is demand that the work must be
handled swiftly.
The purpose is to raise at once a reserve
force of 100000 shipyard volunteers.
Maryland's quota is $3.50. This county's
quota is 1870.
Men are asked to give their names to
local committeeman. These names will
be forwarded to Mr.. John X. Shaw. chair
man in charge of the Labor and Employ
ment Bureau, &c and % Commerce street,
Baltimore. The buttons and certificates
of enrolment will be furnished at later
date. The volunteers will not be given
immediate employment. but will be called
on later. The fact that so much shipbuld-
ing is done in Maryland means that they
will not have to 90 far from their homes.
The wages will be high and the govern
ment is now working out the housing
problems. so that all will be well taken
care Of. There will be steady employment.
1t is not promised that these volunteers
will be exempted from the draft but the
men now in the shipyards have been given
a deferred classification and the volunteers
will have special consideration.
In this critical year the man who helps
to build O ship will serve his country as
usefully as though he carried musket.
The shipbuilding reserve will be great
honor body Of patriotic Americans.
This county's quota should be made up
in q week. Action is needed. Apply at
once. If you cannot reach your local COM
mitteeman. write to John X. Shaw, &c and
% Commerce street. Baltimore. Md.
SHIPsl SHIPS
Our government must have ships that
our fighting forces in France and those of
our Allies be supplied with food and other
necessaries. We must have ships to trans
port our troops. Men without ships can
not win the war.
To-day the call is for men who will
volunteer for shipyard work. The number
needed is 100000 MaryIand's quota is
$3.50. This county's quota is 100 APP
