MAXIMUM OUTPUT
OF SHIPS FOR NAVY
IS HELD VITAL

Washington, d. c. - The Navy's
need for destroyers, destroyer escort
vessels and landing craft has been
emphasized by Rear Admiral E. L.
Cochrane, Chief of the Bureau of
Ships, who said these vessels are
among the nine types of craft to get
top precedence by the Navy.
Admiral Cochrane's statement was
prompted by insistent demands from
the COMMANDMENT Chief, U. S. Fleet,
and the forces afoat which "empha-
size that the successful completion Of
the war require the very earliest pos
sible completion, delivery and place
ment in service" of these vessels dur
ing 1943, and particularly during the
next three months.
Admiral Cochrane said the situation
is a challenge to organized labor
which is building these vitality needed
ships, at time when production is
tagging.
"The existing scheduled completion
dates of vessels are recognized as a
difficult goal to attain and in many
cases reflect the maximum possible
accomplishment" he said 81 cannot
stress too strongly the real need for
improved performance, anticipated
schedules, always doing the improb-
able and often the impossible. Much is
requested! Much is expected! Still
more is needed!

GARMENT WORKERS.
INCOME JUMPS

New York City (ILNS).- Income
of the international Ladies' Garment
Workers Union increased nearly a
million dollars in 1912, the unions an
nual financial report shows.
The organization income was ST.
763,787, exclusive of special benefit
funds, compared to $685., ,222 in 1941,
a rise of $908,565, according to the
report, made public by President
David Dubinsky.
Almost No Strikes
In releasing the report, Dubinsky
pointed out that despite the fact that
the union is functioning in nearly
total civilian goods industry, it had
no strikes to speak of during the last
year.
"Our strike relief and expense item
as shown in this report for 1912
amounted to $144,322, about one third
of what we spent on this account in
the preceding year." he said. "This
sum was spent largely on the liquida-
tion of hangover shop strikes during
1941. While our members are practi-
cally all engaged in civilian produc-
ton, the union has adhered faithfully
since Pearl Harbor to the no-strike
commitment of the general labor
movement"
Big Sum For War Relief
The ILGWU, Dubinsky added, ex-
pended $586,158 in donations and re-
lief" during the year and contributed
an additional $1,300,000 to war relief
funds through voluntary days pay
donations by it's members. Another
$245, ,466 was spent in educational and
recreational activities, he said.
Total disbursements by the union
and all its affiliates for 1912 were
$5,941,571, leaving surplus in the
general fund of $1,822,216.

TURN IN DEER HIDES TO U. }.
 INDIAN BUREAU

Hunters of Juneau and vicinity are being asked to turn in their deer hides to the Office of Indian Af- fairs rather than destroy them by H. w. Startling, Supervisor of Arts and Crafts. The hides are given free of charge to the Native popu- lation, to be converted into articles which are then sold to the public.
 There is a shortage of hides from other sources this year, and a great demand for the finished products, particularly moccasins, says MT. Startling.
 By calling Helen Davis at 586, the hunter may have the deer hides picked up at his home, or he may turn them in at the Government School to George Morlander, prin- cipal. Pete Hammer at the New Ideal Shop will also receive them.
