Shipworkers' Strike
A Colossal Business Mistake

an emergency, why don't you quit now that the
emergency is over?
Ships are costing the government from two
and half to three times what they cost three
years ago. and fifty per cent more than they
can be bought in England at the present time.
So quit building till the costs 60 down to where
we can compete"
The Emergency Fleet Corporation there
upon took account of stock. 1t found that it
was building more wood ships than it could use
or SELL and SO it Cancelled those that had not
been begun.
1t was found that merchant marine was
something more than an aggregation Of ships.
1t had to be well balanced fleet that provided
a certain proportion of fast passenger ships, of
slower going passenger and cargo carriers, and
of many ships built especially for certain lines
of trade
And upon review of the numbers and types
of vessels building under the emergency pro-
gram, the Emergency Fleet Corporation de-
cided to suspend work on a portion of it, SO in
case congress decided to permit us to spend the
money authorized, it could substitute more de-
sirable and necessary types of ships for those
suspended.
1t is impossible to build perfect ready to
use merchant marine. Part OF 1t at least must
be built to suit the needs of business that will
develop through the effort and enterprise of
the future.
1t is necessary therefore, proceed more slowly than
heretofore in the completion of the present program Over
time and Sunday work and other expenses due speed have
therefore been cut out.
And we calling the arrangements and the ship
workers cooperate such way make high wages
and low labor possible in the shpyards has been
made possible in the automobile industry.
Let cite these examples of how high wages and
duced output per have increased the labor of
se One of the best producing yards the Pacific Coast
shows that the average output seventy cent
of that of ago and the average of seventy
per cent. higher This means labor and four
tenths times greater than years ago.
Three Atlantic Coast yards show labor cost from two
and half to three times higher than years ago.
We can look for more output per the
III the yard grow in experience but in the meantime the
future of the industry is in the balance.
Foreign orders be secured until costs 90 down
and even the government cannot continue Shpbuildng
indefinitely if every ship shows a heavy loss.
am presenting the facts they before the United
States Shipping Board and the Emergency Fleet Corpora
ton, and my advice to the is: Go back work and
get together with the what be done put
the shpyards in shape compete for the worlds business
in shpbuding.

Gleason's last playing year was

When Jimmy Callahan became man

Gleason Immediately as assistant.
They worked well together But when
Clarence Rowland took the manage

did not need Gleason. Tho Kid TOM
porarly retired and went into busi-
ness. Two years later the SoX dc
cided that they did not need Row
land. SO, when the chance came Glca-
son was made manager OF the White
Sox. He has managed them into a
championship. He expects to man
age them into worlds champion
ship. and lot OF people are hoping
that he docs. It's pretty nearly n
dead heat between Gleason and Pat
Moran In popularity.
These two men arc very much alike
in their methods OF handling ball
players. Neither are severe task
masters.
Gleason Is moro OF disciplinarian n
than Moran but he does not believe
In riding a ballplayer. He associates
with the men on and OF the fleld and
Is willing at all times to swap talk
with them. He tells tho players when
they are bad. They understand.
There Is something warm and low
