More thz 1000 powder makers
cheered and applsuded Lieutenant
Harry Nilsson OF the First Canadian
Division at a patriotic meeting at the
y. VI. C. A. at Carneys Point last
nigft when he declared that victory
would surely come TO the Allies.
Lieutenant Milsoms speech was a
plea fer the civilian population 10
stand solidly in back of the men in
the front line. He told of the hard
ships and sufferings that the soldiers
have gone through to make certain
that the civilized world will never
again h5ve to wade through such a
blood2 war. Unless the workers and
the other elements Of the nations re-
selve that every ounce Of their force
shall be given TO make the final victory
certain, he said, the blood Of those
men viii have been spent in vain.
The meeting was presided over by
j. a. Greenwood, general secretary Of
the Y. NJ. C. A. at Carney's Point, and
the gymnasium where 1t was held, was
crowded. +, II. Ford OF Wilmington

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Secretary o.
the Navy Daniels yesterday entered
claim for the worlds shipbuilding rec
ord held by the New York Shipbuildins
Company, Of Camden, ~ j.. which
launched the tanker Tuckahoe in 2
DAYS. He announced that the Unltec

A dispatch from Mare Island stated
that the hull Of the Ward was 81 pei

in place. water-tight bulkheads and
structure stanchions complete, boiler
and engine foundations, deck houses
and fittings. mast and topmast Installed
and the deck an riveted except where

Secretary Daniels said:
II have received a telegram from
Mare Island. CAL stating that the de-
stroyer Ward, under construction al
our navy ward there, was launched last
evening al $50 o'clock The keel ot
ihls vessel was laid at 40 a. m. on May

the launching.

structlon period on the building ways
Inc nreyious worlds record being the
launching OF a cargo vessel about 1873
feet long by the New York Shipbuilding
Company. of Camden, n. j. IN a uttle
more than 27 days.
In making this remarkable destroyer
record. as much structural work as pos
sible was prepared in advance ready
for erection and assembling before the
keel was laid Bulkhesds, sections OF
the keel. deck houses. bridge structure
and a section Of the stem Of the vessel
were riveted up ready for assembling IN
place on the ways.
while the record on the Ward prob
ably will stand for some time, since tne
beginning Of the war with Germany the
EFFORTS OF the department TO expedite
destroyer construction have met with
decided success, due to the earnest CO
operation and endeavors OF the build

the average time from the laying OF the
keel to launching was almost exactly
two years.
During the ten years prior to the
war Congress authorized an average OF
nve or six destroyers year. The rec
ords show that in the construction OF
these the average time on the ways was
almost exactly n months. the total
time OF construction being about TWO
years.
"The average time on the ways OF
the numerous destroyers which have
been launched during the last year
however. is a little more than i've

EVEN TEMPERATURE
GOES UP THESE DAYS

In line with everything else, ever
the temperature Is going up" Prob
ably this joke was spoken several hun
dred times yesterday. but 10 was the
sad truth.
The heat Of Saturday and Sunday was
unusual for the first days OF June,
which have seldom gone up TO % de-
grees. Sufferers applied all kinds Of first
aid TO the sweltering, from shower
baths to ice cream sodss. The street
cars were crowded with trippers seek
ing GOODNESS in parks, and the river was
the goal Of many humans in hopes OF
finding a breeze.
Perhaps the wlsest were those who
stayed on the old home porch, with
fans. old clothes and lemonade.
The evening thunderstorm brought re-
lief. and today everybody is hoping II
will stay cool.

employees MUST
keep CORNS OFF
Says they destroy efficiency but car
he lifted right out now.

Many large retail establishments now
insist that every employe have corn
less feet, because one can not appear
pleasant before a patron or be fully
efficient when the brain is constantly
remindful Of these painful pests.
The simplest method known TO get
relief is TO apply a few drops Of freez-
one directly upon the tender, aching
corn. which promptly relieves the sore
ness and soon the entire corn, root and
all. lifts right out without pain.
A quarter ounce Of freezone will cost
very little at any drug store, but is
sufficient TO remove every hard or soft
corn or csllus from ones feet.
This drug is gummy but dries in a
and seems 10 just shrivel up
the corn without infaming or even ir-
ritating the surrounding tissue or skin.
This should interest many men and
women here.

ucation. The council suggests that
in view of the changes coming
over the world and the increased
demand for thoro knowledge and
understanding on the part OF
children there might be need OF
earnest consideration of the crea-
tion of a department OF education
or public instruction in the presi-
dents cabinet.
The council lays down broad
working policy for the present and
sets forth its constructive ideas
for the future. Its observations
in the report are limited. it says.
with a view to suggesting that
while this country is engaged in
the present conflict our efforts
should be directed more particu-
larly to great and fundamental is
sues. While We appreciate that
there are many needed legislative
reforms, yet 1t is more essential
that the Federation direct its at
tention and activities to the fun
damentals."
On this basis the report speaks
in part as follows on It's coopera-
tive Intentions:
Crisis Is Reached
"A crisis in world affairs has
been reached. AS a people i'm
bued with the highest ideals OF
| business the fact that the allied
armies have their backs to the
wall fighting the minions Of autoc-
racy, makes the present momen,
assume a ragged and dangerous
front and moves us to the solemn
duties Of self-examination to de.
termine whether we are doing our
full part.
THAT grievous Industrial
wrongs still exist no one can deny
The agency that has fought

to higher planes, stood between
the oppressed and the oppressors
is the organized labor movement
Tt has accomplished its construc-
tive remedial work thru organized
economic power.
Use of our economic power
has been tempered with such
warmth and idealism that we have
won the respect and confidence OF
those in places of responsibility
and authority. The present ad-
ministration. under the leadership
of President Wilson, who has in
terpreted by word and act the
spirit of democracy and humanity
in a way that has made him the
spokesman for world democracy
has recognized that only thru la

are practically a part Of the fight
ing force. They cannot stop
work without interfering with
the whole program. The whole
campaign from production to
where munitions are used in the
field must be so precise, so WELL

terfere with any forward move
ment If we are to check and de-
feat the best organized war ma
chine the world has ever seen. No
action should be taken in the
shops or on the field not in har.
mony with the purposes of the
war.
Time to Stand Forth
Organized labor, suspectible to
every impulse and stimulus Of
right must recognize in it's i'm
partial and exacting judgment,
that the hour has struck for il
to emphasize and declare it's pur-
pose and attitude and views.
THE pressing need at this mo-

lean soldiers, food and munitions
can be transported to reinforce
the American army already fight
ing with the soldiers of France
and England. There must be full
cooperation and earnestness of the
people Of our country. We advise
the organized labor movement
that in this crisis II must prove
its loyalty to our republic and To
our fellow men and demonstrate
its capacity to deal with big prob
lens in constructive manner.
Deeply impressed by the
events upon the western battle
front, we are constrained to place
before our fellow workmen a
definite course of action. Yield
ing to no one in our determine
ton to maintain for the working
people of this country the right
to work or not to work for a rea-
son or no reason, yet at a time
when the destiny Of the democratic
institutions of the world are
trembling in the balance land
still holding sacred the principles
of the right enunciated) we can
we'll afford to await their exercise
in a patriotic desire that the is
sues of this war may result in a
successful termination"
Workers, the report urges,
should submit all differences to
government agencies established
for their adjustment and mo
strike should be inaugurated
which cannot be justified to the
man risking his life on the firing
line In France"
Up to Employers
In return for this stand, the
council asks employers ito do
everything within their power to
maintain continuous production,
to endeavor to adjust all griev-
ances of employees, to establish
and maintain equitable, humani-
tartan conditions or work." and to
'inaugurate no industry policy
which cannot be justified to the
man risking his life ON the firing
line."
III we voluntarily waive our
rights to strike in this hour of
dire necessity, there will be no OPP
portunity to stigmatize our move
ment as unresponshive in the
hour of need. and our appeal for
justice will take on redoubled
force when the terrific conflict
shall have been brot to a close"
