LOTS OF SHIP BUILDERS
Already Half of Required Number
Have Answered Govt Call.

Washington, Feb. 15.-More than
half of the great number of shipyard
workers needed to carry out the coun-
try's merchant marine program have
been secured in the first half of the
first week of the nationwide enroll
ment campaign by the United States
public service reserve. This is shown
by incomplete returns to William E.
Hall, director of the reserve. The ma
tiona1 drive will be continued another
week, however, and thereafter in ev-
cry state whose quota is not filled at
the end of the campaign. Mr.. Hall
pointed out today that to get suitable
men is more important than speed in
attaining the quota. He emphasized
the fact that men are not expected to
leave their present jobs until they are
called upon by the labor department
for shipnuilding service. Much hard
ship results. he said, from the impress
sion that the men are needed at the
yards Immediately.

Sentiment Seems Divided Over
Organization Proposals.
Some of Men Want To Be
Shown the Advantages.
STICK BY "OLD MAN RIPLEY
That Is Desire of Those Who
Oppose New Move.
Labor Leaders Secretly at Work
on Their Plans.

"Show US where we can better our
condition and standing by affiliating
with a labor union and we will look
over your proposition"
| That was the attitude taken today
by the majority of Santa Fe office en-
Iployes, following an invitation from
carmen in the shops to come in" The
invitation was extended Thursday
night by resolution at a meeting
wherein the carmen were given their
union cards by labor officials.
Men in close touch with the offices,
and the employees themselves, assert
that the men and women are inclined
to look over the union proposition
twice. One thing is sure, the office
employees are not stampeding to the
union ranks as did the shopmen when
invited Labor officials are not so en-
thusiastic over the job of lining up the
offices as they were over the shop
employees. The offices, to make the
matter plain, are backward and
fight among the employees themselves
will undoubtedly result if an effort
to get them to join in body is made.
Stand by Ripley.
Affiliation of the office employees
with the American Federation of La
Dor is apparently being put to a test
by public invitation from the shop
men and by secret activities originat-
ing with union labor officials. The
public invitation campaign was
launched in the resolutions adopted
by the carmen, who asserted work
ing conditions are worse in the Of
fees than in the shops. Office men
today laughed at the idea of their
working conditions" being bad.
Scores asserted their intention of
standing by Old Man Ripley" and
declared that they would not hesi-
tofa fol bo. raS Sf nj eli dor
ton. over placing their welfare in his
hands
Labor officials were asked this
morning if the organization of office
employees would be put to test soon
The question was evaded, as was a
query for information as to how the
test was to be made.
Use Secret Method.
The method we will use in max
ing the test will be secret" said the
labor official. DO you think we
would have been so successful in the
shops if our methods had not been Sc
cret Our negotiations with the Of
flee employees are not public prop
erty.''
IT was also stated that the office
employees would have to get in touch
with the unions if they wanted to or
ganize. Labor officials refused to state
how this should be done.
Suggest Straw Vote.
The labor officials have also offered
the idea of a straw vote" being taken
by E. P. Ripley, president, to find cut
how many employees want union labor
affiliation. 1t can be safely stated that
MI Ripley will have nothing to do
with the idea, as officials of the road
have refused to act one way or an
other in the present incident, When
the matter comes to a showdown they
will! put it up to the government, it is
asserted.
