Our Country Needs Ships to Carry our Boys ‘Over There’

A crane at a ship yard the words below the image are “Our Country Needs Ships to Carry our Boys ‘Over There’ and keep them well supplies with food, clothing and the munitions of war.  The product made in this plant is used for building ships. The ships can be completed only as fast as the material and equipment for each ship arrives at the ship yard.  If every man does a betters day work every day the ships can be built faster. Be true to the boys who are giving their lives for you"
