Navy enlists vast supply as stations expand for war
City and vicinity reports a surge of young men eligible for naval service. Training stations reach capacity, prompting redistributions and home-hold privileges. About 25,000 new recruits are needed immediately for ships, with machinists, cooks, bakers, apprentice seamen, and engineers in high demand as torpedo boat destroyers are funded. Eligible men aged 18 to 35 not yet drafted may enlist. Local ads offer jobs, flowers, and a used car for sale.
