WOMEN CAN SUPPORT
 THE MERCHANT MARINE

Through the Woman's division of the Connecticut State Council or De fense. Edward N, Hurley, chairman of ! the United States Shipping Board, has brought to the attention of the women i ot this state q letter covering the re- lation of American women to the American Merchant Marine. Mir. Hur- | ley urged all women to begin prepar- ! ing now to support the merchant ma rine intelligently after the war, Ev | cry woman who is her own breadW1n- ner will benefit directly by the mer chant marine, he said, and every wo-
 man charged with maintaining 8 i home and family will benel.t lo an 1 even greater extent
 l AIr. Hurley's letter follows in part: I The American merchant marine will be one of the biggest factors in ! reconstruction. War has led Us 10 think in world terms After the war we must serve the world with our ships help other nations develop by
 purchasing their products, and pay fer their products Nun our Soods. We
 are building a merchant fleet Of about l 2a V00005 tons of shipping. Ships
 alone will not make an American mer-
 chant marine. There must be public support and wise laws based on pop ular understandin@. The reason we have not had ships since the Civil
 war, and then only ten per cent, z
 our world trade was carried in Ame' ,. icani ships is that we have moi been
 minded, Publie opinion did not think ships. Now We must think ships, and then we will have them
 The connection is absolutely clear-in
 so far as women help make American
 public opinion they can help estab-
 ::-Sh and maintain the American nler- chant marine.
 What will American merchant ships do for women?
