The hail was as large as pigeons eggs

GREAT DIFFERENCE IN THE BIDS

20,O00-Ton Bsttleships Goes 70
Newport News Shipbuilding Com
pany, Bidding S3,sS7OoO, Other to
Fore River ship5uilding Company,
Quincy, Mass, at s4.37700.

Washington, spccial.-The New
port News Shipbuilding Company IF
Newport News, Va, with one bid al
$3,9S7,OOO, and the Fore River Ship
building Company, of Quincy, Mass,
with bid at $4,377,OOO were the sue
cessful bidders for building the Dig
2O,OOO-ton battlesllips.
The officials Of the Navy Depart
ment were gratifcd and surprised at
the lowness Of the bids, considering
conditions in the industrial world.
They pointed out that the bid of the
Newport News Company for one of
the great 20,00O-ton ships was not
only between 100000 and $50O,09O
less than corresponding bids from
any other company, but actually con-
siderable less than the price submit
ted for building the 1G,OOO-ton bat
tleshipa Minnesota, and $4,000 less
than the price paid for the battle /
ship Louisiana.
With these bids from the ship
builders were received special bids
from the naval constructors at the
New York and Mare Island navy
yards, prepared by the direction vi
the department, as check on the
private sbipbuilders. The figures of
these bids have not been made pub.
lic, but it is known that they are
considerably in excess Of the bids
submitted by the private builders.
The bidding brought together the
largest company of shipbuilders and
other persons interested in naval con-
struction that has been seen in the
Navy Department for many months.
The bidding itself was necessarily
complex; the builders freely availing
themselves of the Departments per-
mission to submit all sorts of combi-
nation and alternative plans. These
included straight bids OH the battle
ship of the standard type with recip-
'ocating engines designed by tile
Navy Department itself; original bid
lers designed and combinations of
he Departments hull plans with tur-
pine engines, some with and some
WITHOUT separate cruising turbines.
