UNS and Shells for the boys in When a manufacturer needs more men,
France to thrash the Kaiser with it is his duty to the country as a whole

-——there on the docks.

.they Start for France as

the laden ships swing sea-
ward—~and every day new
piles arrive. Let’s keep
those docks piled high!

There is only one way to
do it—and that is for every;
last one of us, whether he

runs a lathe or runs a

10,000-man plant, to put
in every minute of his
working day where it does
the most good. Every
working minute lost or

wasted means less‘ help .

for the men acroSs the
seas.

And there are. not just

minutes but whole days lost every time
a man changes his job. A man has to
be found to replace him. He loses time
in moving. He takes time to catch on
to the ways in the new plant.

 

 

PRESIDENT’S
STATEMENT

"Industry plays as essential and hon-
orable a role in this great struggle as do
our military armaments. We all re-
cognize the truth of this. but we must
also see its necessary implications—
namely. that industry. doing a vital
task for the nation. most receive the
support and assistance of the nation."'

 

"Therefore. I solemnly
urge all employers engaged in war
work to refrain after August lat. l9l8.
from recruiting unskilled labor in any
manner except through this central
agency. I urge labor to respond as
loyally as heretofore to any calls issued
by this agency for voluntary enlistment

to prove beyond all question that the
highest and best form of efficiency is
the spontaneous co-operation of a free

people."
WOODROW WHSON.

in essential industry. And l aslt them ‘
. both alilte to remember that no sacrifice
g will have been in vain. if we are able

 

 

LEyery day not to‘ disturb plants that are engaged

in essential war work,but
to get the Government’s
help in finding men who
can be taken from less im-
portant work.

This can be done through
the national labor clearing
house that the Government
has established with 500'
branch offices and 20,000/

agents of its recruiting

division, the U. S. Public
Service Reserve. There is

_ no charge—and the Service

is now placing 200,000.
skilled and unskilled men
monthly. -

Let’s keep ALL the. es-

sential war work going at top-speed.
Tell your labor needs to the local Ex-
aminer-in-Charge, local agent of the
U. S. Public Service Reserve, or to the

Director General at Washington.
