Chairman Benson of he United States
shipping Board. said last night, in reply
to charges of graft and corruption. in
an address. before the annual meeting
Of the South Atlantic Ports Associa-
ton here.
During my term member of the
United States Shipping Board not only
Eaye / insisted on the closest watch
upon all matters, but | have followed
the work Of the Shipping Board in

There is no effort on our part to
shifk whatever responsibility we have
assumed" the chairman continued.
We have insisted that at all times
the records are open to the public.
Every facility is offered to those who
desire information"
Reaches All Over World.
The chairman said he had noted the
habit of men OF attempting to tear
down overnight a structure that had
taken many years of work. 1T is so
easy to tear down structure" he said.
One of the first obligations of parent
hood is to point out to child the diff
ference between wanton destruction
Of a thing on the other.
The Shipping Board is an organiza :

the world, with branch offices in r my

Never Tired of Praise.
II never tire OF pointing out the re-
markable result of the shfpbuilders
OF the United States during times OF
stress. Through their efforts the
United States accomplished one of the
biggest construction jobs ever re-
corded. No real thinking man will
deny that the merchant marine we
have today is the remarkable result
OF American pluck. perseverance and
patriotism.

ask my fellow citizens to remember
that that laconic sign you meet SO

A strict silence rule during work
hours has been imposed on 700 labor
ers employed at the State. War and
by Capt. f. w. Hoover, assistant TO
the superintendent of the big build
ing. All conversation, except on of
fetal business. will be eliminated

Those Included In Order.
For the first violation of this rule. !"
says the order, the guilty employe
pay. > Subsequent violations will be
dealt with as circumstances warrant"
Most Of the iaborers are colored.
About 800 are charwomen. who are
on the roll as "laborers." The other
hundred are men engaged in the
repairing.
The buildings affected by the or
der are the State, War and Navy
building, the Navy and Munitions

According to Capt. Hoover, the as

the rule is to break UP the practice
of groups of these employees gossiping
in the corridors.
There is no disposition to be in
human or unreasonable" said he. but
the gathering of these laborers to
engage in gossip makes a bad i'm
preston on members of Congress and
other visitors to the departments 1t
is not a new rule at all. but simply
an old rule revived to meet condi-
tions that have Just been renewed" :"
