shipyards Will Need
10000 Women for
Jobs, Official Says
WPB Committee Choirmon
Asserts Woees Will Be
On Por With Mems Pay
BY JOSEPH LOTUS.
Associated Press stan Writer.

TORONTO, Sept. 29.-ship-
yards OF the United States will
need at least 100000 women
workers in the coming year, Paul
r. Porter, chairman OF the Ship
building Sterilization Commit
tee, told the convention Of the
American Federation of Labor
Metal Trades Department today.
They will be paid on the principle
Of equal pay for equal work" quality
and quantity Of work considered, he
said, which means that their weekly
take hon. earnings will average be-
tween $45 and $50 and will reach
$40 in some cases.
He estimated that 1000 to 5000
women now were working quite
successfully" in the Kaiser yards on
the Pacific Coast and in the Todd
and Federal yards on the East Coast
mostly at welding and light machine
work.
Kearny Jobs Planned.
The Federal shipbuilding Corp. at
Kearny, N. j., Mr.. Porter said
planned to put on about 1000 women
in the next three months, mostly as
Welders.
Mr.. Porter's committee is q unit
of the Labor Production Division Of
the War Production Board. Under
its auspices wages have been nego-
tiated on an industry wide basis.
Mr.. Porter said the average weekly
earnings in shipbuilding as Of last
July were $685.. a figure surpassed
in only one other manufacturing
industry in the United States, en-
gines and turbines.
Two years earlier shipbuilding
had placed seventh in earnings. The
1912 figures. however, include over
time and night premiums, which
were negligible two years ago.
Mr.. Porter said turnover was a
serious problem in shipyard employ
ment. but he reported the strike
record was better than in the World
War.
Notwithstanding the much greater
present employment in shipbuild-
Ing" he said, "the number of strikes,
as reported by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, has in this war been lust
IS In 1941 and II in 1912 (through
August, as against 106 in 1917 and
40 in 1918.
! $4,000 Man-Days Lost.
"Man-days lost through strikes in
the first eight months of 1912 have
been $4,000. or the equivalent Of an
average loss per shipbuilding en-
ploye of less than half a minute q
week"
The older strike statistics do moi
show the number Of men involved OF
man-days lost.
John P. Frey, president OF the
Metal Trades Department told, dele.
gates representing about 1900, ,OOt
members that about $4,000 shipyare
workers would have to be found il
the next three or four months
10000 for new Jobs and 200,0 ,00|
to replace those going into tn,
