 For the time being no new help will be hired by the Company for the shell work, except possibly a few specialists who are not avail able among the current personnel. Female help can be used on some parts of the she'll work.

 Since the cutbacks in submarine construction were announced the officials of the Boat Company have been quietly but actively working to obtain new business, which would continue to use the facili- ties of the company to full ad- vantage in the war effort, provide steady employment and at the same time plan constructively for postwar activities. The shell con- tract is the first major announce ment in this program.
 Tn making the announcement to- day MT. Robinson said:
 "All of us at the Electric Boat Company have keen sense of pride in the confidence which the Army has shown in us by placing this large and important order. There is a very serious need for these shells at the war fronts and we must go forward at full speed. I am also sure that the same high standards of performance which have guided us in making Subma- rines will be met in the produc- ton of shells.
 we especially appreciate the splendid cooperation which the Army, the Navy, the War Man. power Commission and others are giving us in every possible way"

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
Whcnth the San Francisco Conference ends, the,

Nhcnthc San Francesca Conference ends, the delegates
will have experienced their first day of school" for the study
of the complex problems of world peace, and for the develop
mcnt OF a curriculum for a permanent school.
Everyone everywhere should clearly understand that this
Conference is the most important international meeting il.
history.
We can be thankful that our nation is represented by wise
and experienced statesmen with a sincere desire for peace,
and we are sure the other nations have the same type of rep
rcscntation.
The Conference Will furnish the leadership and the plan,
but peace depends upon the peoples of the United \ations-
upon their will to peace, upon their sacrifice for peace, upon
their works of peace.
The difficulties are enormous, some of the problems cam
not be solved Immediately, and compromises will be made by
all nations in order to arrive at conclusions that will be fair
to all countries.
he Conference cannot create an enduring peace. But it
will lay the foundations for a plan for peace to be put into
effect as soon as possible, and which we and future genera
tons of the world must maintain.
Let us be sparing in our criticism and generous with our
encouragement and constructive suggestions.
And above all let us pray that the thinking people of the
world Will take advantage of the opportunity afforded by the
first day Of school, and build continuously toward an en-
during peace.
