SHEFFIELD
War Munitions May Re Manufactured in Sheffield Iron and Steel Plants

Sheffield. July 23.-(Special)-An agent of a big corporation which has the con tract for supplying one or more of the nations at war with projectiles, was in this city this week, making an investiga- tion into the facilities for helping in their manufacture His endeavor was to learn the number of lathes in the various plants here, both Idle and active. Such information he desired to place in the hands of his company, and 1t is believed that some of or perhaps all of the local plants will become a part or parcel in the work of making war munitions.
 If the Sheffield plants are called upon to do this work they will probably only make the projectiles in the rough from steel after which the product will be sent to other points to be made into the fin- ished article. Reports here from Birming- ham state that a million-dollar corpora ton has been organized there and will probably take over and manage some of the foundries. machine shops and iron plants in Alabama. such plants to be used for making war material. The 'ocal plants would probably become part Of this organization.

all bolts and nuts should be frightened

In case ii is deemed necessary to
overhaul the car. this work should be
done by one who thoroughly under
