Grace, president, Bethlehem Steel Thousands of men arris ing for work in a Bethlehem shipyard. Down this yard's busy ship ways slide many of the nation's cruisers, 3estroyers and aircraft carriers. Bethlehem repeatedly has made records for delivering vessels well ahead of schedule. This is the story of manpower in Bethlehem steel nulls and shipyards, of men and women who have KUNBEB Or BETHLEHEM EMPLOYEES come hv the thousands from all walks of life to , , , _ . , lit , Poland invaded, September 1939 100,000 dci a nib in hacking up our fighting forces with a ' J:>y continuous flood of materials These nu n and Fall of France, summer 1940 ,120,000 women are vital to the battle of production I)cccnibcr ,94, J90 000 Manpiwcr at Bethlehem Steel has been multiplied three times in three and a half years. Here I unisia, May 1943 290,000 are the figures: Facts About Bethlehem Workers v Manpower is the heart of Bethlehem's current prexluction of a ship a day. Manpower makes possible the meeting of its large commitments for ordnance and other war-steel products. All other problems such as materials and supplies are secondary ? the essential dependence is on manpower Thousands of men from non-essential trades are joining Bethlehem war-work armies. More than 13,000 women are employed at Bethlehem plants and shipyards, and the number is constantly increasing Veteran employees are zealously teaching the newcomers, so that they can quickly handle their appointed tasks. New employees earn while they learn, in special training classes and in on the job training. Sympathetic study of each person's abilities puts "square pegs in square holes." Wages are the highest in the history of shipbuilding and steel, and in the top group of all industries. Promotion is rapid, as opjx>rtunity to advance comes far more sw iftly than under normal conditions Bethlehem employees arc friendly, high grade people The great majority have education in the high school' grades, and thousands arc graduates of colleges, crafts and professions. More than 50,000 Bethlehem employees are now serving in the armed forces, a fact which gives added seriousness of purpose to those working to produce the supplies To work in Bethlehem shipyards and plants is to be in the front line of industry, doing a real job to help win the war Employment in Bethlehem's shipbuilding and ship repair yards alone has grown from 15,000 in 1939, to nearly 180,000. The enlistment in our manpower army, continues from week to week and from month to month. The total of Bethlehem employees will exceed 300,000 by the end of the year To reach this total force, and provide for replacements of those going into the armed services and others, many thousands more men and women will be hired. FROM ALL OCCUPATIONS Bethlehem workers come frpm virtually every walk of life to serve in these war-work armies. Here are 60 instances of former occupations of men and women who are now producing ships and combat materials.

Hethlehem has tripled Its number of employees in the past three and a half years, and adequate man-power is essential In order to attain the production goals it has set for this year.

Urges Housewives Not To Ask Boards For Additional Sugar Insisting that the extra sugar allowed on Stamps 15 and 16 in War Ration Book Number 1 is sufficient for the canning and preserving ^peeds of the average family in South Carolina. the State Office of Price Administration this week urges housewives not to ask the local boards for additional sugar unless their needs are extraordinary and imperative. "The numbor of families that need the total allowable 25 pounds per person in the family Is few and far between," the State OPA says. Using Stamp 15 and 16, the average family of five will have 60 additional pounds of sugar for canning and preserving. Local boards have been asked to examine carefully every request for canning sugar, in addition to that obtainable with Stamps 15 and 16, In order to preserve the normal family needs over the state. For the information of home users of sugar, the State OPA makes the following points: 1.

This means that the average family will get enough sugar from these stamps to take care of Its normal canning and preserving needs. 2. If a family has such a large amount of canning to do that the sugar allowed by Stamps 15 and 16 will not suffice, request can be made of the local board for additional sugar, up to a maximum of 15 pounds per person above the' normal allotment for canning and preserving. 3. By no means should a family go to a local board for more sugar than Stamps 15 and 16 allows, unless the canning needs require more than that amount. 4. If a family requests more sugar, the person asking should he prepared to toll how much canning she is doing and how much extra sugar she will need above the Stamps 15 and 16 allotment. 5. Only 5 pounds per person of whatevt r amount a family uses above normal non-canning needs may be used for preserving. Thus a family of 5 people, using only Stamps 15 and 16 for canning and preserving needs, could have a maximum of 25 pounds of this for preserving. There would be left 25 pounds then for canning. pie and quote best price. Will w 1 60 bu. lots up. Camden puruiu! Co., 1038 Broad St., Camden b n Phono 158.
