supplies across the water in clse il
was necessary TO move them in great
Numbers or quantity. We should have
our own ships. and plenty Of them fo;
any such emergency.
The question OF the successful or
profitable operation Of the proposed
merchant marine as to whether 1t
should be under government control or
operated by private management was a
phase Of the proposition with which 1t
was felt the government could deal
with effectively later on. The one I'M
portland necessity TO meet the gigantic
proportions Of the country's industrial
output was ample ships-American
ships-and since it will take well on to
two years 10 complete the shipbuild-
ing program as already arranged for,
meanwhile the proper and best method
Of control can be easily worked out.
The sentiment Of the manufacturers
and business men present Is best de-
iermined by the contents Of a resolu-
ton unanimously pasesd as follows:
Whereas, it is virtualiy important
in this period Of world labor unrest
that workmen should be employed as
far as it is pract cable TO do so, when
they are employed in the production OF
a useful product and,
Whereas. 1t is necessary that work
men be laid off from strictly war pro-
ductiOn and hundreds Of thousands OF
men and women are now being dis
charged from employment IN factories
producing explosives, shells, ammuni-
ti0n, rifles, cannon and other strictly
warlike materials, and
sWhereas, The employment Of the
great army Of men in the shipyards OF
Camden and the entire Delaware river
district. as well as in the entire cOun-
try is Of vital Importance to the city
OF Camden and the entire United States
not only because Of the number Of
men directly employed in the shipyards
but of the number Of men employed In
other Industries in our country, cater
ing to the needs Of the shipyards and
their workmen. and
whereas, The necessity OF having a
large merchant marine has been DEM
onstraied during the world war, and
we must not again be dependent upon
some other friendly nat on to carry
our troops TO or from places where
.or duty calls them or vital
national interests require their pres
nee.
therefore, be it resolved, That the
Board Of Trade Of Camden, y. j., urge
