WOULD MAKE ARMOR FLATE.
Secretary Daniels Recommends Such
Course to Congress.

In response to resolution of Congress
Secretary Daniels Of the Navy Depart
meat recommended today the wisdom Of
the government establishing a plant to
manufacture It's own armor plate.
There is evidence that the manufac-
turers base their prices on what they
think they can get rather than the cost
of the plate.' said the Secretary.
He stated he was investigating the
cost of manufacturing plate and the
expenditure necessary for the govern
ment to undertake the work He sug-
gested that congressional investigation
of the subjects would perhaps be more
efficient than any he could conduct
In reply to a specific question, the
Secretary reported that since the govern
ment began to use armor plate 1t has
paid the Carnegie Steel Company $50
100000 for plate. the Bethlehem Steel
Company $34. 100000 and the Midvale Steel
Company S12,OOOOOO.
