SHORTAGE OF SHIP
DRAFTSMEN
, WASHINGTON, D. C., (By mail)
1There are not enough ship drafts
men in the United States to (lo the
•drafting work needed to carry out
the naval and merchant ship-build
ing program. Our country is en
gaged in the execution of the great
est warship construction plan in
history, comprising 7 87 vessels, in
cluding all types from superdread
naughts to submarine chasers Naval
appropriations aggregating nearly
two billions of dollars have been
made since August, 1916.
Coincident with the demand for
increased naval work, there is an
equally urgent call for an increase
of merchant ship construction. It
is betraying no secret to say that in
both branches there is a shortage of
technical men available for the
work.
The United States Civil service
Commission is endeavorng to re
lieve the dearth of ship draftsmen
by recommending to the heads of
colleges and technical schools that
senior students in engineering cours
es be given extensive training in
naval architecture during the com
ing spring, with a view to making
them available for employment as
ship draftsmen in Jane. The Com
mission is also receiving applications
from qualified architectural, mech
anical, and structural steel drafts
men, and is certifying them for em
ployment in the Navy Department
and in navy yards on ship work.
Local boards of civil service ex
aminers at the post offices in all of
the larger -.ities are furnishing de
tailed information and application
blanks. Applicants are not reguired
to appear in an examination, but
are rated upon their education,
training, and experience.
Please leave your order at the
Nome Tabooing Co. (next door Seg
erstrom and Hagen), for coal etc.,
to be delivered by the Pioneer Ex
press. Orders promptly attended to.
