GOVERNMENT AND CONTRACT WORK.

The Atbara bridge contract and the order OF
the Midland Railway for locomotives from
Baldwin Works have set the English manufact-
urers to asking questions. MADE in America
threatens TO be almost as much a topic OF
troubled discussion as Made in Germany" has
for some time been. As In the case of German
competition. the Brtons have begun diligently
seeking for the cause Of the INVASION and some
OF their keenest observers explain both these
American victories by the free development
here Of bridge and locomotive building plants
supplying the general market with articles of
q fixed pattern, while in England individual
railroads do much more of their own cOnstruc-
ton. and even when they let out contracts to
manufacturers are likely to insist on special
plans conforming TO the particular whims of
different engineers. The result of our ready
made engines and bridges is great plants which
can quickly respond in an emergency and turn
out work cheaply. The English goods are more
frequently made to order even in the small
details, and while the result may better suit
the individual customer the practice interferes
with wholesale trade. units the manufacturer
for supplying a large demand promptly, and in
nine cases out OF ten fails to secure any better
work for practical purposes. On the other
hand, readymade shipbuilding Is much more
prevalent and the Admiralty has taken great
pains to encourage the maintenance Of private
yards in a high state Of efficiency and prosper
lty by having a certain proportion Of the war
ships constructed under contract. This Eng
lsh critics declare to be Of great benefit 10 the
trade in general and a great reserve resource
TO the Government.
This thought ought to give pause to our cor
pora ton -baiters, who wish TO stop private mr.
mor-plate founding and otherwise deprive indi-
vidual manufacturers Of Government work. The
result would be the cutting OF Of one Of the Gov
ernment's own hands, as the British Admiralty
clearly sees, and as English railroad managers
with their company shops turning out bridges
and engines one at a time now belatedly
discovering No doubt a Government ship
building plant is a good thing, and perhaps a
small armor plant would also be good thing.
