equate provision of navy chaplains for
the American citizens who compose
ninety -four percent of the nation's sea
fighters. 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. ASTOKXA,
