FEATU8I OF FOURTH

Today was celebrated in American
shipyards by the astonishing num

One hundred merchant ships and
thirteen destroyers were sent christ

for American victory in the war.
Almost all of these launchings
were attended by appropriate cere
monies as the Declarations of In
d< pemlenee attended by a message o’
appreciation was read in all ship
yards.
[ The burden of the Wilson message
j was “we arc all comrades in the
! great cause of human freedom” and

! thuslasm were to be noted,
j The launchings that took place
provide a most spectacular event in
j ihc history of ship building, and

| heretofore. Many of the ships beat
j former records, and in few cases
but the launchings marked the nor
mal record. In several yards ships
will be launched today.
