About the proper operation of the fleet

The work in each port should proceed according to a well-designed technological process.

The high production rates of longshoremen in tons per person shift in certain advanced ports should be consolidated in all ports of the transport fleet, especially in the Caspian Sea, during this year's navigation. After all, the workers of the Murmansk port managed to exceed the average daily gross cargo processing rate by 57% in the difficult conditions of the polar night.

During the Patriotic War, Soviet mechanics and machine crews repeatedly demonstrated high standards of technical operation, careful handling of mechanisms, machines, boiler rooms and screw farms. However, surveys conducted by the Technical Inspectorate of the People's Commissariat of Defense in the Caspian and Far Eastern basins show that the mechanical and ship services of shipping companies have not everywhere become the technical headquarters that ensure the fully cultural technical operation of ships. During the navigation of 1945, it was necessary to ensure that the excellent traditions and working methods of advanced mechanics and machine crews became the traditions and methods of the entire merchant fleet.

Big tasks are being put forward for the technical fleet. Its role in ensuring the fulfillment of the transportation plan is quite significant. It is obliged to work accurately and smoothly, without repeating, for example, the case when, due to storms in Makhachkala, the depths dropped sharply, and the technical fleet began to repair at that time, condemning ships visiting the named port to underloading.

This year, the ports have been separated from the shipping companies and are operating independently. In some places, this circumstance has led, oddly enough, to an aggravation of relations between ports and shipping companies. The heads of shipping companies and ports should remember that their work will be successful only when they find a common language in their work. Shifting the blame from one to the other will be seen as the worst kind of red tape and bureaucracy.

Maritime agencies are being organized to better link the work of shipping companies and ports. The Black Sea Shipping Company did not understand the significance of this important event and delayed its implementation. Such harmful practices should be vigorously combated.

In order to achieve a link between ports and shipping companies, it is necessary to widely practice the creation of decadal schedules for loading and unloading ships. This event should be implemented with all perseverance, and not with coolness, as is the case in the Black Sea and Caspian shipping companies.

In 1945, the operation of the fleet will largely depend on the timely bunkering of ships and their supplies. The needs of the vessel must be provided for in advance, so as not to face the fact of a shortage of something at the time of the vessel's departure.

The transport fleet of the Soviet Union is developing, and the need for new qualified personnel is growing. 1945 was destined to be a year of drastic change in the issue of training such personnel. The allocated special training vessels should be fully utilized in order to train qualified personnel for sailors, stokers and other marine specialties.

The tasks set by the Government and the party for merchant seamen in the current navigation are serious and responsible. Soviet sailors have repeatedly proved in practice their devotion to the Motherland, their high patriotism and their willingness to give their strength to help the Red Army finish off the enemy.

It is the duty of honor of merchant seamen to conduct the fifth military navigation in such a way as to earn the praise and gratitude of the government and the victorious Red Army, selflessly finishing off the Nazi hordes in their lair.
