This book presents the proceedings of the New England Shipbuilding Conference held in Boston in October 1917, under the auspices of the Industrial Service Department of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. The conference marked the beginning of a close cooperation between the government, shipbuilders, and the departments of labor and education in the United States. The main focus of the conference was to discuss the enormous task of ship production to support the Allied forces during World War I and to determine how to best utilize the nation's resources to overcome the challenges of labor recruitment, training, and efficiency. The book presents the speeches and discussions of prominent figures from the shipbuilding industry, government officials, and representatives of educational institutions, offering insights into the complexities of industrial mobilization during wartime. The conference emphasized the need for a coordinated effort, effective recruitment strategies, and the establishment of training programs to meet the urgent demand for skilled workers. It also highlighted the importance of public support and cooperation in recognizing the vital contribution of shipbuilders to the war effort.
