arriving for work in a Bethlehem shipyard. Down this yard’s busy shipways slide many of the nation’s cruisers, destroyers and
aircraft carriers. Bethlehem repeatedly has made records for delivering vessels well ahead of schedule.
Employment tn Bethlehem’s shipbuilding and ship repair
yards alone has grown from 15,000 in 1939, to nearly 180,060.
The enlistment tn 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 re-
placements of those going into the armed services and
others, many thousands more men and women will
be hired.

Facts About Bethlehem Workers
Manpower is the heart of Bethlehem’s current production of a ship a day. Manpower makes
possible die 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 num-
ber 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 m square holes.”
Wages are the highest in the history of shipbuilding and steel, and in rhe top group of
all industries.
Promotion is rapid, as opportunity to advance comes far more swiftly than under normal
conditions.
Bethlehem employees arc friendly, high grade people The great majority have education
in the high school grades, and thousands are graduates of colleges, crafts and professions.
More than 50,000 Bethlehem employees are now serving tn 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 u to be in the front line of industry, doing a
real job to help win the war
