THE SEATTLE STAR—FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1918. Viore Men Needed To Build Ships gsaaoregees 222m2eenecruR AL America is looking to Seattle more than to any other city for the ships that mean VICTORY! But Seattle can’t hold her leadership unless more men go into the ship- yards and join the thirty thousand workers who have already established Seattle in the mind of the Nation as “the city that builds Ships.” The vitally necessary harvests of the Northwest are keeping in the fields thousands of men who later will be released for shipbuilding and oth- er war industries. I~ -epeecoewSseoe set Seattle citizens are hearing the call for the emergency that exists for the next sixty or ninety days. Business and professional men are enrolling. Mayor Hanson, lawyers, doctors, ministers, merchants — many are joining the ranks of the ship workers, but we need more! ea ee ‘ We are just beginning on the two thousand additional unskilled workers that are needed to supplement the men who are sas ie by lack of as- sistants. weetesi MR. CITIZEN: YOUR CITY AS WELL AS YOUR COUNTRY CALLS! If you are physically fit to work eight hours a day in a shipyard, and can adjust your personal affairs temporarily, put aside business and become a worker in the shipyards. No long training needed—no necessity for leav- ing home. Your wages will be those of thousands of others with whom you are laboring. ' If this means a sacrifice, think of the great sacrifice that the boys in khaki are making for you and for America in that Hell-on-Earth, over there where the blood-begrimed trenches cut deep across the face of the land that once was smiling, happy France. The United States Employment Service will be pleased to receive your application for shipyard work NOW!
