Loss than a year ago there were not 45, niiu men employed In American ship yards. Today there are more than 3110,000 skilled mechanics and labor ers cngnged In building ships, and un additional 250,000 omployed In making engines, bollors, winches and other machinery necessary to equip them. This tremendous oxponslon by which tho United States hopos to put Into a new merehnnt marine that will rival the trading fleot ot any nation in tho world has been accomplished In methodical fashion, without any "fuss and feathors" "but achieving a rosult that Industry long will regard as one of tho most brilliant victories of tho war. It has boon brought about by tho shipping board thru rec ognition bf tho prlnclplo thatj un trained men can hecomo skilled work men only thru competent instruction. Ono of the first tasks of the shipping board, thoreforo, was tho creation ot a division of education and training, which has supervised the establish ment of training centers and tho de velopment of instructors among tho foremen and superintendents. Ily training foremen and managers tho shipping board has been able to develop In a year tho building of woodou ships which had beon a long lost art, and workmen in many yards havo Increased In efficiency more than 25 percent. "Whore wo have efficient management wo have effic ient workers," Chairman Hurley de clared today. "You can't expect to havo efficient workmen In an Ineffic iently managed shipyard nor can you expect good results, "bur shipyard workers genornlly aro ns flno a hody of men ns Is engaged in any Industry , In this country. They are a patriotic. Industrious group, and whilo In many ynrds they aro not as offlclent as wb would llko to havo thorn they are learning dally and aro Increasing their output. When tho history of our shipbuilding program is yvritton, tho American workmen, tho men who really built tho ships, will bo thb men deserving of any credit that may bo duo."
