MERCHANT Marine
FOR WORLD UP[|FT'
Chairman Hurley Tells Latin
America Our Ships win
Benefit Them.

PHILADELPHIA. July 2s.-Latin
American diplomats, the guests Of the
shipping board at an inspection Of the
Hog Island shipyard. were told to-
day by Chairman Hurley that the
great merchant marine now being
built by the United States must bring
prosperity to Americas neighbors as
well as to this country. or the pride
of the United States in tho achieve
ment win be diminished.
'rYou may send back to your own
peoples the word that these ships viii
not be used exclusively for this ma
tion's aggrandizement in peace" he
declared. ANY more than they are
used for such aggrandizement in the
war that is now waging.
Advantage for All.
Our duty now is to build bridge
, of ships to our fighting front in
France. Our expectation is that
large part of this bridge will be used
to connect US more closely with our
neighbors when the war Is over-a
bridge that will be used as freely and
with quite as much advantage by our
neighbors as by ourselves.
"It has been laid down as a rule of
our conduct at home during the war
that no excessive profit shall be made
out of the struggle of humanity. That
rule will not be lifted when peace
comes"
Mr.. Hurley spoke at luncheon in
the dining room Of the International
Shipbuilding Corporation. with the
staccato battle of pneumatic hammers
family audible from the worlds
greatest shipyard outside. After the
luncheon, served Immediately on ar
rival Of the guests from Washington,
they were taken over the yard and its
fifty ways, from which the first ship
will be launched August s, and from
which Mr.. Hurley told the visitors it
is expected to launch three ships a
week.
To Serve Civilization.
'The worlds greatest shipyard. es-
tablished here" said Mr.. Hurley, was
part of our answer to the challenge
of the German government. which set
out to sink our ships and our car
J goes and American citizens travelling
the ocean highway. It was intended
primarily to serve civilization in the
great war emergency, but it will serve
civilization as well in the enduring
peace that will be born out of the
victory of the allies and America.
The ships that are being built by
the United States as instruments of
war are designed to serve equally well
as the istruments of an enduring
peace The great fleet that this coun-
try is building will be operated after
the war upon principles which recog-

nize human and national rights and
equities.
'"That fleet will serve Latin America
as it serves the people Of the United
states. It will serve the world, as
