Require Beer u; a ; Beverage La., ; bor Union Adopts Resolution, ' Against It. National prohibition will reduce the efficiency of ; V shipbuilding .plants j,v 25 per cent, and' the effect. of strict prohibition here - has j already ' handi capped the , work; of the Carolina Ship building corporation to that . extent, was the statement . made by Ralph Starrett, vice president and general -manager,; yesterday-" afternoon when interrogated on the subject, . " 1 The opposite view was expressed by Lewis R. Ferguson," general manager of the Liberty Shipbuilding company who asserted that beer was not essen tial to the efficiency .-, of the workmen at his plant. Captain George W. Mc Kown, superintendent of the "filming' ton vvooaen smpouualng company. agreed 'with - the - statements of Mr. Starrett that beer was essential. Discussion of the' matter of the ef fect or proniDltion on ; workmen at shipyards before the agricultural com mittee of the United States senate, has sferved to locaize Interest in the ques tion here, since there ere. two ship yards here under the direct supervis ion of the emergency fleet corporation, and there is a possibility that,' if the shipping board gains its contention that prohibition will serve . to slow up the output of ships, beer and light wines may be served to workmen in the local . plants. ' , Mr. Hurley, chairman of the ship' ping board, has asserted that prohibi tion nationally, or the absence of beer as a part of the-diet in any shipyard, will serve to hamper operations, in concurred in by every member. of the official staff of the Carolina shipyard. Aavocates of national prohibition have made the fight for national prohibi tion on the basls";that what .would be well for a yard "In dry territory would be well for yards' the country over. They state that nation-wide prohibi tion will affect every yard identically . and that then there will be no qis crimination by workmen against sec tions of the country where there Is al ready prohibition by state enactment. Prohibition leaders point out , the possibility that workmen will not go into a dry territory from a wet ter ritory. Since most of I the shipbulld ing has been done in sections where there is not prohibition, they contend that there will be a discrimination without prohibition and presume that It is upon this basis that the advocates 5f beer are making their fight While recognizing that , fact, Mr. Starrett stated that it was . not the basis of his advocacy of beer. Condi tions under which shipworkers labor, he asserts, are entirely different from those of ordinary labor, and ; require Jifferent treatment. Riveters are sub Jected to severe '. heat, engendering If More Than One Hundred Work- Men Employed iix War Work. Exeoeutive Committee of Chamber En. dore Action of President In OW recttnjsr Government Service to '' ' - Assume Control, thirst -that cannot be satisfied with water. If a workman drinks V ail the water that he demands, he, is unfitted for work. Beer is the only element that will supply the want. Beer is not advocated as an intoxicant of the men, but, simply to satisfy . a craving that is developed by the peculiar con ditions under which they work. Whether or not beer would bo made available for the men here. Mr. Star Tett would , not hazard a guess. The sale of beer would be a direct viola tion of the state s laws. There is no law prohibiting the giving away V of beer or any - other alcoholic beverage, and there is a possibility that such an arrangement could be made. . State laws, however, and federal as well limit the amount on hand. . The cor poration will nfaintain a mess hall and canteen, where meals , will be served and other drinks sold. ' The matter of transporting beer . into the state for purposes other than "selling 'seems to be somewhat confused. There are add . ed possibilities that the shipping board, with war-time authority, may order beer sold or given away at the shipyards. The site is a United States property and is policed by; men ap pointed by the shipping board. Bringing the ; question ;"? upon - the public at this time, when1 every -ener gy of the country is needed to prose cute the war was denounced by Mr, Starrett. It is no. time, , he said to stop to quible over the 'matter; the need is recognized-and admitted .by practically every shipbuilder- in the country, and by members of the ship ping board, and that ought" to end it, he said. All of them " agree-that the denial of beer will decrease the effl ciency of the yards 25 per cent, he continued, and the raising of the cry of prohibition now, when the one great need of the country is ships, V is , not snort of unpatriotic. -. . Radically different, views . are' ex pressed by Lewis 'R. Fergusbiv-gener al manager of the Liberty Shlpbuild ing comnanv. Ho (onnlrB for loCal conditions only, he says, . when he as serts that prohibition will not reduce the efficiency of his men." They 'will be a different class of men, working under different conditions, . and there will be no physical need .61 the quali ties that are found In "beer,' H would not express an opinion -as to , the effect of prohibition would have on yards with conidtions different V from those under which his men work. Reports have been circulated to : the effect -that beer was already being sold at the Liberty, plant, A canteen is maintained to serve the requirements " the men in the way of lunches and soft drinks, but nothing is offered that is not sold at uptown lunch counters and soda fountains.' No beer is , sold and none will be. " according to the statements of officials of the company, The matter of beer for the shipyards has been discussed generally v in the city since the possibility , of Jt's being S"M or served here was- recognized rrom readine the Associated Press dis Patches during the past few days, but no concrete expression of opinion Sjhas (Continued on Page seven) DO YOU SMILE OR FRO WW?

The resolutions folow: h "Resolved, That the executive com mlttee of the chamber ; of 'commerce of "Wilmington, srealizing' the interests or the government must be served, and tne necessity for the proper distribu tion and control of labor - for essen tial industries, endorses the work of the U. S. employment service of the department of labor and extends the co-operation ; of - this organization to the office serving fe Wilmington dis trict, v,-"-. ..- .. --. ' "Further, .the action of ; the president in authorizing the U. S. employment service to assume control of recruit- ln& and distributing all common la bor, beginning August 1st, preventing any further activity on the part j of labor scouts representing ; private in terests who have operated with de trimental and reckless disregard,' de serves the. commendation of manufac turers ' and the business public, and has the support of this organization. A recent bulletin of the government employment service contains the-fol lowing concerning the ne worder: C After August 1 no employer with war business who has a force of more than 100 workers will be permitted to recruit common labor and all such employers will be required to use the federal . employment service. While the restriction against private recruit ing for the; present applies only to unskilled labor,' as soon as possible it will be extended to include skilled laf bor, and eventually no employer "may be permitted to employ men unless the latter have United States 'employment service caras. in the meantime, how ever, private recruiting . ' of skilled workers will be -subject to regulations prescribed 1 by the service, which - will prevent vthe wholesale labor 'stealing' and 'poaching that has been largely responsible for the disorganization of the labor ' supply;: "By his statement the president. ap proved the -recommendation of ' Secre tary of Labor ' Wilson, the labor ad ministrator, that war-labor , supplying be handled by the United States em ployment v. service exclusively. "v The secretary's action followed the unani mous decision of the "members of the war , labor policies board or the ' de partment of labor that, the first step toward labor stabilization must be the centralization of all labor . recruiting activities in : the; employment ;: service. This"" board consIsts'JJf the' heads of the various arms ; of the ' department of labor and . the , production chiefs of the, war, navy, and agriculture depart ments, the shipping and war industries boards, and; the food, fuel and rail road, administrations. Its chairman' is Felix Frankfurter, "assistant to -the secretary of labor. . f "While the war labor policies board, in its resolution of agreement upon the centralization policy and' outline of the . common-labor" recruiting pro gram,' fixed July 15 as the date upon which- private recruiting was to cease the : president, . at Secretary.; Wilson's suggestion, postponed the date to Au gust 1. The employment service, how ever, will rush' Its plains ' at - the rate of speed called for by the earlier date and. if possible ;will begin wholesale recruiting for war industries by the moddle of next month. . l V-"- . 1 1 ' r BISHOP .'
