Warns Against Strike.

Railroad shopmen Of the United States
were notified through their union heads
of the statement issued by Director
General McAdoo reminding them that
they are government employees in time
of war and that a strike or any ces-
sation of work at the present time
would be a direct blow to the prose-
cution of the war.
The statement is in connection with
the walkOut few days ago of several
hundred machinists and shopmen at
the Alexandria, Va, shops of the South
ern railroad and threats Of general
strike of union shopmen next Monday
unless further pay advances are grant
ed, and declares "the government can
not be coerced or inundated by any
Of It's employees"
The shopmen are reminded by d.
rector McAdoo that board on railroad
wages and working conditions has been
created which will hear all cases In
which a group Of employees feel JUS
tice has not been done. Referring to
the Alexandria, Va, walkout the dyec-
tor general declared 1t was "the first
time In the history Of our government
that any Of its employees have attempt

WOMEN HANDLE BIG SHELLS
Young British Mother Settles Ques-
tIon Of Their Physical

Liverpool, Eng.-When women IRA
were put to work In shell factories here
they handled only the light fleld-gun
shells. Later II became necessary for
them to turn out larger shells, and
doubts were raised as to whether the
women were strong enough to handle
them. A young mother settled tho
question.
Let me heft the SHE'LL" she said,
picking one up from the floor. "Aye,"
she commented, "this shell Is mite
heavy, tits true, but It's not so heavy
as my baby"
There is a shell factory In this dis
trict operated almost exclusively by
the daughters Of business and profess
sional men. Many are young girls
who had never done any kind OF work
other than needle work and cooking.
The heavy work Of the establishment
Is performed by the wives Of sailors.

RIvETERS DOING THEIR BIT
Success Of the American Fleet Con.
struction Depends on
Speed Of Men.

No more pertinent explanation of
why rivet driving is emphasized In
ship construction has been advanced
than is contained in recent report
from the steel ship construction divi-
sion of the Emergency Fleet corpora
ton, the Emergency Fleet News OBJ
serves. 1t is well-recognized fact
that rivet driving comes at stage of
ship construction when a great deal
Of preliminary work has been COM
pleted and anyone with shipbuilding
knowledge can reckon our progress in
steel ship construction If he Knows
the number of rivets that are being
driven each day.
The 1913 steel ship construction pro-
gram calls for a total tonnage that re-
quires the driving of 313, 900, 900 rivets.
Up to the present time the average
number of rivets driven each day In
all yards in America is 100000. To
drive the 81, 100000 rivets required by
the program it is necessary that the
American shipbuilders increase their
total daily average to $4,000. In
|
130,0O0 more rivets n day If we are TO
succeed in completing the program for
this year.
Anything that will tend to increase
the daily average of rivet driving
should he encouraged. There Is al
ready very fine spirit Of patriotic CO.
operation and endeavor In the work
among the ship builders. Recently it
has become quite apparent that a feel
ing Of rivalry has sprung up between
the various yards and between the
gangs In the individual yards. Many
more rivets can be driven each day
than are actually driven now. A few
months ago good riveters were con-
tent to put in an average of 500 to 600
day. That average is ridicu-
lousy low figure and it can be raised
materially.
The truth Of this is evidenced by re-
cent figures of rivet driving records
which have come to the attention OF
the Emergency Fleet News. When
crack riveters saw that men in other
yards were planning championship rec
ords, they started out to set new speed
marks. First came the report Of riv-
citing gangs driving LOO rivets In nine
hours, and from that figure the record
has jumped swiftly to 1,4O0. 100,
2,1OO, and finally to 2,270, the record
hung up by the doughty "Finner"
Scheck, at the Baltimore Dry Dock
and Shipbuilding company's yard.
Even this has been exceeded by at
least two men, one of whom drove
more than 1900 rivets and the other
more than 3.400 In a single days work.
Then came news from England that a
riveting crew there had driven 3,267
rivets in nine hours.
All these riveting records may not,
In themselves, be important except that
they go to prove that the average
| number of rivets driven a day can be
raised far above the present number,
and that consequently American ship
builders can put vessels into the wa
ter at much faster rate than they
have done thus far.

tain Is that the commander OF the de-
stroyer will see the oil, believe that the
submarine has been wrecked and drop
no more depth charges. Meantime, the
German is endeavoring to escape.
American and British commanders OF
destroyers and submarine chasers dis
covered the scheme Of the Germans
some time ago and since then have
been dropping depth bombs in greater
numbers than previously, using the oil
as a guide to the general location Of
their target. "Oil camouflage" the
