Following its efforts ever since the Civil War in this direction, the American Seamen's Friend Socie ty is preparing to undertake the work of arousing the people of this country to call for the same chance of religi ous burial and service for their men at sea as they have at home. Other national and church organizations have already promised to exert themselves toward this same end and every effort will be made to procure immediate consideration of the measure already introduced in Congress providing for a chaplain to every five hundred souls at 'sea. Only two chaplains are to-day rep- j resenting this nation with the fifteen I thousand jackies of the fleet that is cruising the world, the officers of the American Seamen's Friend Society de clare. In the British navy one of these officials is invariably assigned to every ship, while the men of other foreign sea forces have always some one at hand for burial and service. Reports of the impression which the American fleet will make abroad in this particular are to be made to the society, which is in touch with the navy by its branch stations at ten points throughout the world. For the thirty-three thousand enlis ted men in the United States Navy to day only twenty-four chaplains are appointed. Eight of these are scat tered on shore duty while eight more are attempting to cover many other stations on recruiting ships, dock yards and at Annapolis. As a result, the friend of the tars assert, thousands of good Americans are deprived of religious ministration in life as well as in death. , "For the last sixty-seven years not one chaplain has been added to our navy although the enlisted men have been increased five fold;" said G. Mc Pherson Hunter, secretary of the A merican Seamen's Friend Society at its offices, 76 Wall Street, today. '"Ev er since the Civil War we have been trying to urge upon the government the real practical need for supplying the men they take from home with their accustomed facilities for wor ship. When the American people come to realize this- single defect in the greatest of the world's sea ser vices, I feel certain they will at once demand a remedy.
