During the period extending from the

The United States, during the same

eight destroyers and six submarines as

This is the situation with which we
were faced on March 1. To correct this
defect in our national defense. there
has been set aside from the $780,
000.000 allocated for the relief of un-
employment, the sum Of $238, ,000, 900 to
be spent In new naval construction
Through this allotment the two out

present moment, namely, protection and
employment, we're linked together.
Few persons realize that each dol
lar spent for shipbuilding is Of benefit
to the entire country. Many believe
that only the locality in the immediate
vicinity Of the shipyard is benefited.
Such is not the case. Every State in
the Union contains industries which
produce materials and equipment used
in shipbuilding. and. therefore, not only
the States containing shipyards. but all
the States profit. Men from 125 trades
and professions are employed.
