M. 1113 THIRD AVENUE Northwest Ship Men Promise to Aid Government Shipbuilders of the Northwest will | exert every effort to aid the govern- ment in its shipbuilding program. This pledge was telegraphed Thurs |day night to Chairman Edward N. Hurley, of the United States shipping board, and Admiral F. D. Bowles, of the United States emergency fleet corporation, following its adoption at &@ Meeting of 60 representatives of all shipyards in Washington and Oregon construccting steel ships exclusively | for the government. The meeting was called by Capt. J F. Blain, district representative of the United States shipping board, to standardize as perfectly as possible all operations in steel shipyards. The representatives assured him that all steel ships conform in every way to the requirements of the board. Report was received from Wash. ington Thursday that Capt. Blain has Just been replaced by William Pigott, of Seattie, but Capt. Blain said he knew of no such change. OH! POOR SHIPYARDS! IF THIS TAKES PLACE In two weeks about 500 King county lawyers may be looking for jobs in the shipyards. Failure to comply with the law by registering with the county clerk and paying a fee of $1, during Jan uary, automatically forfeits their right to practice law in the state until the fee is paid and registration completed Only 0 have registered so far.
