 Just study that map a minute!
 Of the AS states, more than half touch no salt water. To be sure, many fresh water states have ship yards and sailors. But who would think of looking for deep-sea tars in Iowa, or New Mexico? Yet, from every state in the Union Uncle Sam expects to draw his builders of deep sea ships. And there is very defin- ite purpose in his plan
 The war is a. national matter, and deep-sea ships are @ vital part of the war, and in every draft upon his re- sources in men and money Uncle Sam looks to each state to do it's share according to population.
 That Is one reason.
 Again, war activities must be or ganized with the least disturbance to farming, manufacturing, transporta- ton, and other industrial war produc- ton. An even draft on each state, according to population, is the husl- ness-Hle way of mastering these shipyard workers with the least dis location of other industries.
 So that is a second reason, but there is still another.
 Uncle Sam is drawing his shipyard workers from the fresh-water states, the regions of corn, cotton, wheat ard sagebrush, because he wants repre- sentative Workmen from all America.
 Out of the total quota of 3S7, 900. the 26 fresh water states will fur nish 169,379, or fully A per cent. Their blacksmiths and carpenters ma chinists and clerks, cOppersmiths and electricians, are being mustered for shipyard service on the coasts because such draft of American mechanics f from all the inland states, according to the plan of the quota, will make our new mercantile-shipyard industry truly national in spirit and give it the benefit of the widest possible range of American mechanical ingenuity. They must come with skill at some allied trade, possessing a handicraft ! which will make it possible to quickly teach them one of the two hundred odd trades needed in the building and fitting of g. mercantile ship. That is indispensable
 But it ia not all, by any means.
